One of the magical things about anime characters is that they rarely age. Sure, for the sake of the plot some of them get a couple of years older as the episodes roll by, and we occasionally get a glimpse of their younger years in one of those flashback scenes, but we rarely get to see what happens to the characters at a later stage in life.

That’s the unrealistic part of anime, but at the same time, that’s where the fun is for fans as we’re able to use our imagination and come up with all sorts of scenarios we think is ideal for our favorite characters. Here’s what some Love Live! fans think their lovely idols would look like when they’re in their 30s!

Love Live! is a series about a group of schoolgirls who, at the same time, are pop idols. The sensational series that has captured the hearts of fans in and out of Japan is popular for a multitude of reasons, but one of them is the fact that the leading group of nine lively girls are set at the age of 15 to 17 years old.
