today in japan is kanan's birthday, and i just want to talk about kanan is a majorly important character to me.

i got into love live when i was in a very severe and dark place in my life. it was some of my worst depression and anxiety bouts ever. i ended up downloaded school idol festival, because i saw a mutual on instagram talking about it.

kanan caught my eye right away. she was the first partner girl i picked. i loved her design, her voice, her hobbies, all of it.

soon after, i finally actually watched sunshine itself, and i fell even more in love. kanan's story was extremely interesting and her dynamic with mari and dia deeply reminds me of my own dynamic with some of my closest friends; i still often have to hold back tears listening mijuku dreamer because of it. i think she's beautiful and mature but still has a soft and funny side and isnt afraid to joke around. she's strong and athletic and a great older sister figure to chika.

kanan has been my number one in the beginning, and it sounds stupid but some days i wouldnt want to wake up but i would so i could get my daily bonus from llsif and see kanan.

kanan is such a deeply important character to me and while i do not play love live's games as often as other games now, kanan means the world to me. she's one of my favorite characters ever.

overall, i love kanan so much. she's such a great character and i hope people see that in her! please love this buff dolphin mom! kanan i hope you have a great day and celebrate it with aqours together!!! happy birthday kanan!!!

Happy Birthday Kanan!! 💙💙

Happy Birthday to an absolute MOM Kanan!! I love you so so much, and you deserve the world! I did a little “uwu” sorta edit to my favorite of Kanan’s cards, I really hope to get her one day (´；ω；｀) 💚🐬

Hi everyone! ☆ Since it’s her birthday, I thought I’d pay tribute to one of my favorite Aqours members, Kanan. So I made this card edit of her recently, it’s my very first one! Happy Birthday Kanan!!! ♡ ♡ ♡

happy birthday, kanan!! you're my second favorite aqours girl; i admire how chill and mature you are, you would make such a wonderful friend and i would love to give you lots and lots of hugs <3

I gave my best girl Emma a bday celebration during the 5th in the US. I posted the pic in my Instagram and Twitter.

💌Birthday Lovemail; Dear Emma, I’m thrilled to have celebrated my first birthday with you. Emma, you’re something special to me. I wasn’t really into love live, though I did like a couple of idols, I never had favorite idol that captured my heart; not until I came across you, Emma. I first came across your existence while browsing songs to play on SIF on my sister’s phone. When I first heard the preview of your song “Evergreen” IT CAPTURED ME! Idol pop with a bit of Celtic style. AND YOUR VOICE IS SO CUTE, SO BEAUTIFUL, JUST PERFECT! Your appearance capture me as well! Your freckles, your braids, your eyes, your cute shy looking smile, your outfit! Then I got to learn more about you and I love everything about you Emma! YOU WARMED MY HEART. I think you actually removed negative ions from me on that day! www I truly believe you are my fated #1 female idol to stan!💞 I may not appear as a big Emma supporter but I believe the little support I display should suffice enough. I can’t wait to hear future songs from you, new cards, in the anime and just more of you! You’re just amazing Emma. Us fans have a huge amount of love and support for you! I love you Emma chan! Once again, Happy Birthday!!! 🍞🍰🎉💚

ps: Emma chan is so sweet and kind that she didn't mind that my cake for her arrived messy ;v ;

Happy Birthday Emma! ♥

Made another one for Anju. I love her.

RED GIRLS I have only realized by now that Maki and Dia share the same heart on their opposite cheeks. It'd more cute if Nico and Ruby will also have it on future cards ♡
