Seeing as how the past few days have been the fifth anniversary of µ's Final Live, I wanted to make a post dedicated to them to show just how much I appreciate what they accomplished in their five to six years as a group.
For one, we wouldn't be here today to talking about Aqours, Nijigaku, or Liella!, if not for µ's. Much like the anime, due to µ's immense amount of effort and passion that they put in, they made the Love Live franchise into what it is today. µ's consisted of a group of nine individuals, many whose talent was unknown, and all who were only prepared to simply voice and sing as a character. Being asked to perform live, perfectly mimicking the dances of professionals without having the talent to do so... And then managing to pull off what they did is nothing short of impressive. But does just that make µ's amazing? No, it doesn't. It's how passionate each and everyone one of them was, how much they cared for the work they did, and how much love they had for the fans. And rightfully so.
µ's fans are some of the most passionate people I've ever seen; it was made especially evident during Final Live just how much the fans truly loved µ's. I know Aqours went from zero to one in the anime, but µ's did in real life. We all know that Borarara bombed. Hard. And sure, the fans weren't there en masse then, but once Snow halation released, it was clear the µ's had some sort of talent that was worthy of being supported. Throughout the years after that, much of what µ's was able to accomplish was due to the amazing support of the fans. Without their support, SIP wouldn't have been made, or it's second season, or the movie, or any of the lives for that matter, and for that I thank them from the bottom of my heart. I wasn't part of the community until eight months after µ's disbanded, so I was never able to support them while they were active, which admittedly hurts a little. But, I've done what I feel like I can to still support them in someway by purchasing every single album, anime BD/OST, and live BD that there is.
But still, what makes µ's so much better than the other groups then? At that point, it's really just your opinion, but for myself, there are a few things that set them apart: the characters and music, simply put. I won't go into much detail on the characters because I've done that enough already (I'll put a link to my rankings post in the comments, though they are a bit outdated). µ's music is really something else: they have enough variety to where nothing feels rehashed, but enough consistency to solidify that they do have a "type" of sound. The lyrics in µ's songs quite often talk about the future and what's to come, the memories we'll leave behind, and the friendships that will last forever. Being the sentimental person that I am, these types of songs really resonate with me, both with my friends and with the members of µ's. I get that µ's are just fictional characters, but the bonds that I've formed with them are something that feel so real, something that I'd not trade the world for, as dumb as it may sound. I really wouldn't be the person I am today if not for them, so I humbly thank both the creators of the series and the seiyuu for bringing these characters to life.
To wrap things up, I have one thing I'd like to say: µ'sic Forever! Because, after all, this moment is truly the greatest♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪
Here's BokuHika Honoka! This was actually the first Love Live drawing I've ever done, and I'm sure that now I could do a bit better, but I'm satisfied with it since I poured all of my love into it
...And a picture of my BokuHika related items! I have quite a few more items coming too actually, some of which won't arrive until May or June unfortunately :(
