Muse (Episode)

µ's is the tenth episode of the ''Love Live! School idol project Season 2'' anime series. It aired on June 8, 2014.

Summary
Celebrating New Year, Honoka, Umi, Kotori, Rin, Hanayo, and Maki went to the shrine, meeting A-RISE along the way. Meanwhile, Nico, Nozomi, and Eli are busy working as a shrine maidens. Afterwards, µ's started focusing on Love Live! and talked about it while they trained. Hanayo brought up the topic of making a catchphrase for µ's, and while Honoka was coming up with one, Tsubasa went to Honoka to talk to her. Tsubasa wondered why A-RISE lost, asking Honoka how they managed to win, how µ's managed to become better than them, and what was their "driving force" to win. Honoka could not respond with an answer, but Tsubasa wasn't disappointed with her reply. When Honoka talked to Umi about it, Umi thought that their "driving force" can give them a catchphrase that describes µ's. Honoka asked Yukiho what she thinks about them; she replied that there was something about μ's that gave her a need to cheer for them. Honoka then made mochi to show µ's gratitude for everyone at school. Afterwards, Honoka finally thought of a catchphrase that describes the µ's determination of doing their best to reach their goal: "A Story Achieved Together".
