About the Love Live! Series
A project centered on "school idols" — high school girls active in idol activities at their schools — and their journey to fulfill their dreams. Since the original "Love Live!" project began in 2010, it has grown into numerous series entries, encompassing TV anime, cast-led live events, and a wide range of other activities under the theme of "a story we all fulfill together."
