This is the thing you set an alarm for, because it only exists if you watch Superstar!! on NHK Educational. Every week the episode ends and you get a little animated bonus tacked on, and half the time it's Liella no Uta doing what it's always done: putting the music front and center, no plot weight, no stakes, just the group and a song. The other six weeks swap in something else entirely, which is exactly the kind of inconsistency that turns casual viewers off and makes collectors take notes. No heavy themes, no arcs, nothing to decode. Just twelve small helpings of Liella spread one per volume across all six Blu-rays, so completing the set is the only way to hold the whole thing. You already know whether you're the kind of fan who buys all six.

Liella continues their journey with a series of exclusive animated shorts that air alongside each episode of Love Live! Superstar!! Season 3 on NHK E. These brief segments shift between music performances and other animated content, arriving week by week with the main series. Six of the twelve shorts carry on Liella no Uta, the weekly animated music segment seen in earlier seasons. The other six break from that pattern and offer a mix of different animated pieces instead. Fans who miss the broadcast can find them later, since the segments are spread across all six volumes of the Season 3 Blu-ray and DVD release.
