love live! superstar!!

A new spinoff manga just arrived for the Love Live! Superstar!! aspect of the Love Live! series, and this one will center on Chisato Arashi. Manga author Yuta Taneda is working on the series titled Love Live! Superstar!! Chii-chan Buchō wa Yūnō Desu! (Club President Chii-Chan is Versatile!), which made its debut in Kadokawa’s ComicWalker and on the Nico Nico Seiga website on March 30. 

The series sees Chisato teaching the Liella! members to sing, dance and more as they eventually aim to win the Love Live contest once they’re ready. Sakurako Kimino is credited for the original concept along with original work credits for Hajime Yatata, the Sunrise staff’s collective pseudonym. 

The Love Live! Superstar!! anime has so far inspired two seasons, with a third in the works. The anime is currently available to stream on Crunchyroll, which describes the series like so:

The first students have arrived at Yuigaoka Girls’ High School, a new academy built on the crossroads of Omotesando, Harajuku, and Aoyama. With no history, no upperclassmen to rely on, and no name to speak of, this school’s totally starting from scratch!

In the midst of this, a team of five girls led by Kanon Shibuya discover “school idols.”

—I love singing! I really do! And I want to accomplish something with it!

So the hopes of these stars, still small in stature, begin to accumulate…and so begins the “School Idol Project” of five girls with a blank slate and infinite potential.
