Love Live hasn’t had the biggest influence of my life but it is nice part of it now. I started out hearing my friends in cosplay club talk about it extensively and I was just confused about it, so I watched an episode 1 with a friend and found it to be whatever. Next day I see my friend with bags under his eyes and I asked him how did he do on his homework. To which I was in disbelief when he told me nothing of it since he marathoned about most of season 1. That same day I then installed the game on my phone but I was totally clueless about what exactly to do in the game. At some point everything started blowing up. I watched the two seasons and enjoyed the different songs and antics everyone in μ’s did.

From there on I started going crazy but still free to play on the game in both JPN and ENG versions and finally thought about exploring the different songs of μ’s that I did not even know of. I really love a lot of the songs and a little sad that some songs just could not make into the anime. At some point in time I decided I should watch the movie and then when I heard about the free stuff, I bought tickets to all 3 showings!!

The movie pretty much sealed the deal of Love Live as an impact of my life. I got to see μ’s work hard in making it to the Love Live and winning it all! I also saw their struggles in making difficult decisions of what is μ’s future. Different songs and different soundtracks now are in my playlist to help me get motivated, cheer myself up, and most importantly for self-reflection. Love Live has connected me closer to some of my cosplay club friends and overall enjoy life more than I have done so! I’m grateful for Love Live changing my life in connecting with people I would never have thought to meet, giving me another list of music to listen to that I would never would have to listen to, and cheering me up overall as I look forward to what the future has to come.
