Love Live! Sunshine!! Recap

Chika Takami becomes captivated by school idols after seeing μ's perform and decides that her small seaside school, Uranohoshi Girls' High, can shine too. With her childhood friend You Watanabe and the reluctant transfer student Riko Sakurauchi, she begins building Aqours from almost nothing.

The path is far less glamorous than Chika imagined. Members join with different dreams and old wounds, early performances expose how much they still lack, and the threat of their school closing gives every success new weight. Through setbacks, friendship, and the stubborn desire to shine in their own way, the nine girls gradually stop chasing someone else's miracle and begin creating one that belongs to Aqours.
