Now Viewing: love_live!_nijigasaki_high_school_idol_clubTag type: Copyright ラブライブ！虹ヶ咲学園スクールアイドル同好会 Tag refers to images referencing this installment of the Love_live! multimedia idol franchise. Like the other incarnations of the series, Nijigasaki is also a multimedia franchise by itself. This incarnation has its roots in the crossover rhythm video game Love_Live!!_School_Idol_Festival_Stars. Said game is set in an alternate continuity where every idol group in Love Live are in the same school year and are active at the same time, meaning that the game is a crossover between Muse, Aquors, and an original group called the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. All of the characters who would make up this generation were introduced there. The Nijigasaki characters later starred in their own anime TV series called Love Live Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. The anime adaptation removes the crossover elements of their debut game, focusing solely on them and adapts the game's unseen playable protagonist into Takasaki Yuu. The first season ran from October 3, 2020 to December 26, 2020. The second season ran from April 2, 2022 to June 25, 2022. The anime adapts the general Nijigasaki plot but makes quite a few character and plot changes. The anime was directed by Kawamura Tomoyuki and written by Tanaka Jin. The original score was composed by Endo Naoki. The series is set in Nijigasaki High School, located in Tokyo. It's a school that's popular due to its wide variety of majors and the story focuses on its school idols. The protagonist, Takasaki Yuu in the anime, arrives at school along with childhood friend Uehara Ayumu. Upon witnessing a live performance, they immediately become enamored with school idols, and set out to join the school idol club, only to find that it's on the cusp of being dismantled. The two of them set out to rejuvenate the school idol club and show others the joy school idols can bring their audience. Unlike most incarnations of the series, Nijigasaki places stronger emphasis on solo performances, with group performances not happening until later in the story. The anime adaptation is also even more character based than other incarnations of the series, where the standard goal of making it to Love Live! is deemphasized in favor of focusing on the club help each individual member overcome their own personal hang-ups and discover what it means to be a school idol. It is also the only anime installment where its central character does not actually sing or dance, and instead acts as a composer and manager for the group, a carryover from the original game where the protagonist represented the player.
