Liella! 4th LoveLive! Tour ~brand new Sparkle~ CatChu! ver. (720p)

The second leg of Liella’s 4th Live Tour is in the books, and what a weekend it wound up being!

Throughout this weekend, we got Nonchan getting revenge on Beginners Rock, a teddy bear that didn’t want to cooperate with Liyuu, and oh my god CatChu!

Honestly, the album doesn’t do their sound justice. Take a listen to their songs on the release, then take a listen to just how raw the performance is (especially on day 2) live. It’s a completely different level of intensity and passion you just can’t convey through a recorded medium. Some of the best performances so far from Paychan, Sayurin, and especially Yabuchan who has clearly leveled up her game.

Because of the larger source files from e+, I will be providing both 1080p and 720p versions of my uploads whenever e+ is the source.

This has been tested with the latest versions of VLC Media Player and MPV as of 8/29/23.

Please seed if you can! Hit and runs only hurt those who come after you!

Please be patient about the initial seed. It can take multiple days for this seed to reach a level of saturation where everyone’s download will speed up.

Liella! 4th LoveLive! Tour ~brand new Sparkle~ KALEIDOSCORE ver. (720p)

And Liella’s fourth live series is officially underway!

This live saw a number of firsts, most notably Yuina and Saku-chan performing on stage with the other nine members! Lots of emotions this weekend, especially for Saku-chan, who was riding a wave of firsts.

This weekend also saw a few new 11-member versions of songs, KALEOIDOSCORE’s first few performances (with hand mics!!!), and Kumachan’s hair doing whatever it damn well pleased on Day 1.

I elected to swap to e+ from PIA for this live, as I wanted to compare quality. The source from e+ definitely seems better when compared to PIA source, but obtaining a usable copy of the file that actually grabbed all chunks of the file proved to be more difficult than it should have been. I’ve reviewed the files, though, and I don’t see anything glaring about them. Considering these are H.265 re-encodes of the originals, you shouldn’t encounter any playback issues or artifacting beyond what was present in the source.

Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club – NEXT SKY [720p h.265]

All credit for subtitles and original files go to Team ONIBE and their amazing team that brought the original TLs to us.

A little late to the party on this one, late is better than never!

This is the first OVA for Nijigasaki which follows up shortly after the end of the second season. New character, new stories, and a new song await you!

This encode lops a little more capacity off of the 1080p version, and clocks in at just under 40% smaller than the original ONIBE encode, albeit with a slight hit to visual quality, as I used the same preset I use for my media server. The quality is still very much acceptable, though, and should meet most people’s needs. There are also versions with hardsubs and versions with softsubs, so if you only want one of them, make sure you select only the file you’re looking to download in your client of choice.

This has been tested with the latest versions of VLC Media Player and MPV as of 8/13/23.

Please seed, especially if you’ve chosen to download all three files! Hit and runs only hurt others those who come after you.

Liella! First LoveLive Tour ~Starlines~ [720p h.265]

All credit for subtitles and original files go to Team ONIBE and their amazing team that brought the original TLs to us.

We are back with re-encodes! It’s still insane to me that Liella got their start with their major lives not even a year and a half ago, and that when they started, were as solid as they were. And even though cheering was forbidden back then, the crowd was still able to make it very clear how much they backed Liella.

The 720p re-encode has managed to drop the file size a fair bit farther than the over 50% size decrease from the original release to my 1080p re-encode. That being said, the 720p rip is only ~6 GB smaller than the 1080p re-encode, but I know that for some people, that little bit makes all the difference

And even though cheering was forbidden back then, the crowd was still able to make it very clear how much they backed Liella.

As with most of my 1080p re-encodes, I was able to lop quite a bit off of the original file size. With the original weighing in at a comparatively whopping 65 GB, this h.265 re-encode with my usual settings cuts that to just short of 26 GB, saving over 50% of the original space. Do keep in mind that this is a re-encode of a re-encode, so some small quality loss is expected, but shouldn’t be very noticeable at all.

Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club UNIT LIVE! ~QU4RTZ Fluffy Magic~

I am healed. I am also sad this was the last live for a while for any Love Live! franchise.

With a combination of great vocals, pleasing harmonies, a surprise mini acoustic set, and Christmas in March, we got to see some of our favorites (in come cases for the first time in a long time) now that all four of them have powered up. It was very fun, and I’m happy QU4RTZ received the support they did from the crowd.

Apologies ahead of time for any quality issues. This was ripped from PIA, so we get to deal with the quality they provided us for the VOD.

Aqours EXTRA LoveLive! 2023 ~It’s a Mugendai☆WORLD~ White Day Concert (Day.1&2)

And thus concludes Aqours’ run of concerts until their next live (or extra live series) gets announced!

We got a pretty good variety of songs throughout these two days. Where the Valentine’s Day concert opted to go with the first solos, White Day brought the newer ones including the legendary “Cotton Candy Ei-Ei-Oh!” with cheers. We got more Miku, 1st/2nd/3rd year songs, and some of the funniest entertainment we’ve had in a while with the intermission and one of the D2 MC sections.
