The story
On the night of October 16, a livestream for Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club aired, with concurrent viewers (“doutsu”) peaking at around 8,500. During the broadcast, the release date for the movie’s final chapter was announced, confirming the franchise will keep going. On 5ch’s Love Live! board, posters rushed to compare this viewer count against other sub-series’ livestream numbers, sparking arguments among fans over the figures. Reactions from Nijigasaki’s critics also became a hot topic in the thread.
AHHHHHHHHHHH lmaooooo

What people said
Crushing full-lineup Liella! lol
Well no duh — Liella!'s sports day stream dropped to like 3,000 once Kobayashi and Sagara left
Feel the love
Well, she's one of Agu's top 3 favorite cast members
3 members pulling 8,500 for Nijigasaki >>>>>>>>>> 800 for Ribora (a rival idol franchise)
Of all things, Hoomin brought up the "Charm Discover" episode drama — that was gold lol
What are the Niji-antis gonna do now
The movie's release date
Plus basically a "Nijigasaki will never end" message
Guaranteed flop again this time
Aqours' finale announcement stream broke 30,000 concurrent viewers
Looks like it's gonna get crushed by Hasunosora's new member reveal stream the day after tomorrow
What do you even think Love Live is at this point?
It's not some hit franchise anymore
What's the point comparing it to the Aqours era?
The Hasunosora you're rooting for is even lower than that
Quit conveniently swinging your "lotus stick" around (using Hasunosora as a cudgel whenever it's convenient)
Quit trash-talking Liella!, who can't even hit 8,500 with a full lineup
That's the best comeback you could come up with after racking your brain…
That's the standard go-to line whenever Hasunosora loses
Like Hinaki-chan said, it's just that tons of people keep buying every single month's new original content, so that's the only reason it keeps going
Damn that's strong lol
Some loser franchise out there should take notes
Getting owned by Hoomin from a mile away, what a loser lol
Background and Key Points
Concurrent viewer counts (“doutsu”) are a rough gauge of audience size that streaming platforms display, and while they’re a constant topic of debate on the boards, they aren’t an official popularity metric the way CD/BD sales or live concert attendance are. Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club is an entry in the Love Live! franchise that began in 2017; after getting its own anime, it now centers mainly on manga, stage shows, and live concerts. The franchise’s fanbase splits along group lines — μ’s, Aqours, Nijigasaki, Liella!, and others — and livestream viewer counts are often cited on the boards as ammunition in arguments over “which group is more popular.” That said, the numbers for other groups cited in the thread are based on posters’ impressions at the time or screenshots they shared, and may not match official statistics. The term “Niji-anti,” used for Nijigasaki’s critics, is internet slang reflecting the rivalry between fanbases online and shouldn’t be taken at face value.
