I finished Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club this evening. Ok so this one was a bit different, the school is a huge modern hi-tech one with loads of students, so no School Idol Club needed to save it from closing. There's still a school idol club, of course, but rather than become a group the nine members all decide to become solo idols so in effect each episode revolves round one of the girls. The problem with this approach is that there's very little in terms of coherent storyline. It's an interesting series, but with the group's members all doing their own thing the storyline really lacks the overall sense of purpose that the previous series had.

It's dull and overcast, it has been raining but it's not now, but more is forecast/threatened for later on. It's also only 10C and is expected to be half that by the end of the day.

I finished Love Live! Superstar today. This series follows the same basic formula of the previous series, but it's a different school in a small town coastal town with a group of students who set out to form a School Idol Club and win the Love Live competition. The big difference is that there is no references to the School Idol groups in the previous two series and there are only five members in the group, which is a good thing as more time can be given to each of the group members and each of the five girls have interesting and varied personalities. Unlike the other series less time is spent on the competitions and more time is spent on interactions between the characters and like the other series it has some very nice background music. Overall I enjoyed watching it and it has a good storyline and is good fun to watch.

Freshly made and hot. Decaf with milk and no sugar, and in a decent sized mug not a silly little cup!
