God, where do I even begin? Eli Ayase is beautiful, talented, intelligent, brave, bright, careful, fair-minded, calm yet energetic at the same time, charming, helpful, and so much more. But most importantly, at least to me, she's my best girl.

Eli has always been my favorite. As someone who does theatre and relates it a lot to Love Live!, seeing the rest of μ's jump wholeheartedly into a world of which they have no experience, I too like Eli was shocked at their unbridled enthusiasm. But, just like her, I went on a journey to not only love and care for the other members but to love idols too. I never have met another character who I can relate to more, or who means as much to me as Eli Ayase does. So, with all that mushy stuff out of the way, all I really have to say is...

Happy Birthday Eli Ayase! May your day be full of chocolate, good friends, and good memories! ♡ хорошо ♡
