**All credit for subtitles and original files go to [Team ONIBE](https://onibe.moe) and their amazing team that brought the original TLs to us.** Team Onibe has graced us with their subbing of the 9th Anniversary Love Live Fest just in time for its spiritual successor, in a way, the Unit Koshien, this weekend! This was one of the final concerts in the before times, before COVID kicked everyone's asses and shut down the world for a while. It was also the last time I got to see a delayed viewing in a movie theater, so it's a bit of a nostalgia trip for me. It's hard to think about at this point, with six group lives and numerous other activities under their belt, but this was just the third live for Nijigasaki, and their first real exposure to the rest of the Love Live community that may not have known about them. Their first numbered live happened almost exactly one month prior to Fest, so each of them performed their first solo songs from the Tokimeki Runners CD, and this would have been their largest live crowd to date (and still might be one of their larger crowds, if not the largest). Aqours shone as they always have, with the first live performance of Mitaiken Horizon, the usual Aqours energy and polish, and fearless leader Anchan reverting to her superfan self for a few brief moments during closing MCs, shortly after µ's performed Snow Halation. And yes! µ's performed a medley of their songs! It was their live performance as 9 since their Final Live in 2016, and it was so, so nice to see them back together again. The medley, of course, was followed by Snow Halation, and that legendary orange glow that accompanies it. This encode shrinks the original even more than the 1080p encode published along with this, cutting 20 GB off of the original download and ~8 GB off of the 1080p encode size. This will be the ideal version for those with even tighter bandwitdh caps or less drive space to work with. This has been tested with the latest versions of VLC Media Player and MPV as of 3/7/2024. Please seed! Hit and runs only hurt others those who come after you.
