Recently, Lovelive! The theatrical version can be said to be a topic that countless anime fans are talking about. However, it seems that for people who like three-dimensional idols, two-dimensional idol animation can't enter their eyes. Recently, an AKB48 fan wrote an article criticizing "Lovelive! theatrical version.

An excerpt from the article follows:

In the theatrical version of Lovelive! μ's faced with a heavy choice. How did the Year 3 students end μ's activities? Or continue as a μ's?

And Hono Guo announced: Since μ's is a "campus idol", the event will be ended.

And from this moment on, the "campus idol" that was not very important suddenly became the keyword of the story.

Hono recruited campus idols from all over the world for the "future of campus idols", and held a grand ceremony attended by all campus idols, and used it as a curtain call stage for μ's. In this way, the theatrical version of "Lovelive! The anime "Lovelive! Finally, it ended with a group of nameless campus idols gathering ceremony.

However, this grand ceremony as the end of the festival should not be like this.

To clarify this question, I compared a concert I held in the real world three years ago to this one. It was an event called "ゆび Matsuri り~アイドル臨時総会~", where popular idols who were originally competitors came together and performed.

The most important reason why this event has caused a lot of talk is that it was planned by Rino Shihara, a person who was very popular among AKB48 at the time. In other words, "ゆび Festival り~アイドル臨時総会~" is similar to the event planned by μ's to bring together campus idols and be the climax of the theatrical version.

Actually, the "ゆび Matsuri り" is a very touching festival. If you want to say why, it is because this event symbolizes the life experience of Rino Hara, an idol. Originally, her hometown was Oita Prefecture, and she grew up as an avid idol fan.

Her elementary school years were the heyday of Good Morning Girls.,Due to various concert activities.,Rita Fingerhara has become a serious idol house.。 She came to Tokyo with a vision of idols and became a member of AKB herself. She overcame many obstacles and finally got to the point where she was able to plan such an event.

In other words, "ゆび Matsuri り" is an event that expresses her love for idols without reservation. It is precisely because it reflects the growth of this section that it is touching.

Well, as the anime "Lovelive! At the end of ", what kind of story is included in this activity? In the author's opinion, it is a pity that "there is no story". In that grand ceremony, "campus idol" became the key word. However, so far, Lovelive! "There is no time in it that embodies the themes of "what should be done by campus idols" and "the future of campus idols". Honoka: They didn't think about the situation of other campus idols other than A-RISE at all. And at the end of the end, the question of "campus idol" suddenly popped up, which can only be said to be very abrupt.

Anyway, my feeling for this theatrical version of LL is that the plot ignores the direction that the story should have.

In the first half of the department, because of the illogical blunt unfolding, the group went to New York, and got nothing there. In the back, the plot that has nothing to do with the front begins. Normally, if you work backwards from the later plot, then the first half should mention the problem of "campus idols", and lay the groundwork for μ's to end the event. But I didn't see it at all, and there was only a scene of exploring the city and communicating with Americans in search of a concert location.

In addition, Honoka, who was lost in New York, met a female singer in a state of confusion and was taken to a hotel. There are a lot of incredible things about this female singer, and it is set to be invisible to other members except Honoka, so the most convincing statement on the Internet is: This is Honoka from the future.

This female singer once appeared in front of Sui Naiguo after they returned to China, and then suddenly disappeared from the plot, and Sui Naiguo didn't remember her anymore, and it was a mystery. This character, who was initially thought to be a key character in the theatrical version, ended up having nothing to do with the main story, so the real mystery may be: why did she appear?

In addition, there is also a memory plot that appeared at the beginning of the theater version and Hono Guo crossed the stagnant water. This has nothing to do with the whole theatrical version, but in short, I think there are many places in the script of this theatrical version that seem very messy, and there is no coherent theme, so I don't feel like a story. If you say "no storytelling", some people may cite works such as "The Girl with a Light Voice". But I want to make it clear in advance that although this work does not have much plot (at least not any major events), the storytelling is zài (with a coherent theme). And in this regard, the theatrical version of "Lovelive! Although there is a plot, there is no story.
