To MakAndChiz's bit, including
I hope I don't sound rude in any of this ;-;
-- absolutely no offense taken at all. Heck, part of my point was that it's very hard to pigeonhole any of the Nijigaku girls as copies of previous Love Live generations.
To slightly explain my -- rather forced -- mappings, the Rina ~ Nico bits are the way that they're both sort of "gimmick" or "persona" idols, and the Kanata ~ Honoka is purely the napping (I think Honoka mostly does hers in class, rather than afterwards). Even the Kasumi ~ Nico comparison is a little forced, because Kasumi really is that cutesy gremlin -- there's no personality she's covering by being "Kasumin~" -- and Nico's very much a put-on persona of the Greatest Idol in the Universe.
(A lot of my thought process comes about from somebody snarking on a Kasumi/Setsuna piece that it was both halves of Nico making out with each other, so the thoughtworm got planted and it came out here.)
To get back to this series, I so wish we had more! Hibari and Hina are teriffic, I can absolutely see 3yo Kotori being very indignant about the proper name of chun-chuns, it's great seeing Umi overwhelmed by the little sister attack, and it's wonderful to get the family-side resolution of the first-season ending.
