Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club

A thrill was born that day...

Ever since that day...

...the world began to change!

Hm... What about this?

I'm not really feeling it.

What do you want to do?

Let's try another store.

Sure!

Remember that plushie I wasn't able to get last time?

I looked online, and it was in an auction...

Ayumu, why don't you get this?

It'll look great on you.

I-It's okay. I mean, it's cute, but it's super childish.

You think so? You were wearing stuff like this up until recently.

You're talking about when we were in grade school, right?

I'm over those now.

Just wear whatever you want. You look super cute in whatever you wear.

-There you go, saying stuff like that again.

--Hey, look! --There you go, saying stuff like that again.

Didn't you wear something like this in kindergarten?

Wow, this takes me back.

I'm Ayu-bun, bun.

You were so adorable.

Say...

Do the thing.

What thing?

Ayu-bun.

Huh?

Like I'd actually do that, jeez!

Aw...

I'm starting to get hungry. Why don't we go downstairs?

Agreed, bun!

Yu-bun sounds way cuter.

You're wrong, bun.

So, what should we eat?

I'm feeling buns.

You read my mind.

Oh, yeah.

So during second period today... Hey, what flavor is that?

Wanna bite? It's the limited-edition lemon salt custard.

Sure.

Okay. Say, "Ah."

Ooh, yum!

That is good!

You got some on your face.

Wanna try mine?

Oh, I know.

Hey, move in closer.

Ah...

What should we do after this?

Hm...

Wanna catch a movie?

Nothing interesting seems to be out right now.

I guess we could just watch whatever like usual--

Is there some kind of event going on?

Setsuna-chan!

You've got this!

Setsuna-chan!

Wait, is it just Setsuna-chan?

Weren't they supposed to debut a new group today?

Your emotions that take off running will make you stronger!

When I don't know what to do, I'll just hold your hand

I already said bye-bye to the past I spent

Almost betraying my precious feelings

I kept repeating risks and regrets

Sounds like something exciting's going on.

Let's go check it out!

Yeah!

Whenever we close our eyes, we can meet as many times as we'd like

My heart beats faster and the future I believe in is right here

The moment that the world shines with brilliant colors

I want to see that with you, those feelings are my answer

Your emotions that take off running will make you stronger!

When I don't know what to do, I'll just hold your hand

You don't need to hold back on the person you truly want to be

See? Your dreams will start shining someday!

Your emotions that leapt out aren't a lie!

Even the hope born from tears

Will connect with a strength that your eyes cannot see

See? Your dreams will start shining someday!

That was awesome!

You're so cute!

That was so good!

Notice me!

Wow...

Yeah...

Right? That was awesome, right?!

Y-Yeah...

She was so cool! So cute! That was insane!

I've never seen someone like her!

What is this feeling? It's so thrilling!

Who was she?

Hey, look! A poster!

"Nijigasaki School Idol Club" "LIVE!!"

There she is.

"Nijigasaki School Idol Club" "LIVE!!" "DiverCity Tokyo Festival Plaza Stairs"

Nijigasaki... School Idol Club?

"Nijigasaki School Idol Club" "LIVE!!"

Wait, Nijigasaki...

That's our school!

"Nijigasaki School Idol Club" "Love Live!"

"Episode 1: The First Thrill"

"Episode 1: The First Thrill" "Ayumu Uehara"

Morning.

Morning.

Not enough sleep?

Sorta.

Don't be late.

I won't.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Let's go.

Okay.

We're going to have another quiz next week,

so make sure you review this part.

That's all for today.

"Club Building"

Ayumu!

Were you waiting long?

Nah, let's go home.

Before we do that,

there's somewhere I wanted to stop by. Do you mind?

Sure, let's go.

Thanks!

Huh? W-Wait!

Hey, where are we going?

The School Idol Club!

Say, Yu-chan...

I'm not...

I really had no idea about school idols.

When I went home yesterday, I watched a ton of videos.

They were all so cool and cute...

They were all shining.

They just grabbed my heart, you know?

But the one I'm really interested in right now is the girl from yesterday.

Her name is Setsuna Yuki-chan.

"Chan"?!

I guess she's pretty famous.

Apparently, she's the mysterious and elusive school idol from Niji High!

I wonder if she has a fan club.

If she has her next performance lined up, I totally wanna go!

B-But we're already second-years!

We're going to go to prep school together, remember?

We don't have any time for chasing after school idols...

That's not a problem. Actually, it's perfect!

When I listened to Setsuna-chan's songs while studying, I totally made progress!

I totally aced our quiz today, too!

I just feel super motivated, you know?

I've never felt anything like this!

First, I need to get her autograph!

Let's go, Ayumu!

Wait!

So this is where all the club rooms are.

Come to think of it, we've never been here.

It's huge!

Hey, where's the School Idol Club room?

I dunno.

No one's updated the homepage in a while, and it wasn't listed in the directory.

Then how were you...?

I just figured we'd stop by every room and ask.

Really?

Don't worry. We'll find it in no time!

Oh, for crying out loud...

Excuse me...

Welcome to the Nagashi Somen Club! Did you want to join?

No, we were just looking for the School Idol Club...

Haven't heard of it.

That looks really good...

Please excuse us.

We're not finding it at all...

Well, this school has a ton of clubs and students.

Apparently there are over a hundred clubs.

Seriously?

Um, excuse me...

Have you heard of the School Idol Club?
