@MochaKiss: I enjoyed your talk. I've always wondered if scissoring really worked as well as advertised, but it's just hard to work the question into a conversation.

Are they the same person???

There aren't even that many fanfics, unfortunately.

Guess this means she has no problem with Suletta doing things like this in private

@Perlen297: I wonder what the problem is? Are people just tired of Love Live? I feel like SumiKeke is one of the most promising ships in this franchise and it's just gone cold for some reason. I hope the ham-fisted way they portrayed their relationship as semi-toxic to set up the big episode 9 payoff didn't turn artists off ...

^nonsense! A little more of granny's cookies wouldn't hurt! Have an entire plate!

This is a rant and not an objective analysis of the series so understand that it's exaggerated and based on how I felt when watching it but here's why I don't like Superstar:

When it started Superstar seemed like it could become the best Love Live franchise ever. The initial four episodes of season 1 were some of my favourites in the series and easily gave μ's (the only group I like) a run for their money. But then episode 5 made my hopes and dreams collapse and the rest of the series became a frustrating mess.

To me, SumiKeke feels extremely forced (like, at least have episode 4 be about them to give them some setup, the ship just comes completely out of nowhere and suddenly is the biggest thing for both of these characters like what????) and because of that it's one of the weakest and most boring ships in the entire franchise to me. Its sudden inclusion combined with Chisato's backstory revolving around Kanon completely turned me away from the series because it started to favour shipping over characters and the group dynamic.
I think shipping in Love Live should be a secondary thing with the group and individual characters being the main focus like what μ's did. In Superstar non-shippy character interactions feel like they're not given much attention or weight past episode 4 which just makes Liella feel very flat to me. Sure we still get stuff with Kanon and Ren, Keke, etc but not much and it's always given less weight than the ships which is just sad. The five character cast would've allowed for more fleshed out member dynamics but we didn't really get much other than SumiKeke and ChisaKanon by the end of season 1.

Then when you combine my disappointment with season 1 with the inclusion of four more characters and I'm just done. I finally dropped the series when the ShikiMei episode came out because it basically highlighted everything I dislike about Superstar.

I still love μ's and ChikaRiko but the rest of the franchise has become an extremely frustrating mess to me that doesn't have anything that made me love the original series so much.
So yeah, I at least am just tired of Love Live and probably won't bother watching the next thing after Superstar and Nijigasaki wrap up.

As someone who still really loves and enjoys Love Love, and has greatly enjoyed each group and series, I just say too each their own. I've seen various fanart for Super Star, and I don't think most people hate it, I just think Yuri Doujins in general aren't super common. Despite the tons of Yuri fanart Lycoris Recoil gets, I've shockingly seen more hetero doujins for it than Yuri.

So I don't think it's a Love Live problem, and I think Love Live is still popular with a lot of ships people enjoy. It's just that the Doujin landscape tends to be hetero focused from what I've seen. Which is unfortunate because I think Super Star has a ton of great ships, and I love it a ton, so I hope we get to see more Doujins of it over time.

^^ yuup! Same person, alternate reality
