Love Live! is a multimedia anthology idol franchise. On the SiIvaGunner channel, it's a sub-meme of "Snow halation".
History
Love Live! School idol project began in Summer 2010 with some teasers for the members of the fictional J-pop group μ's, and the release of the single "Bokura no LIVE Kimi to no LIFE" in August. On December 22, 2010, the second single was released, that being "Snow halation". After two years with more songs released, the anime adaptation aired between January 6, 2013 and June 29, 2014. Meanwhile, the rhythm game Love Live! School idol festival was released on April 15, 2013.
Coinciding with the release of the finale Love Live! The School Idol Movie in June 2015, Triple-Q would begin frequently using "Snow halation" in mashups, with other mashup artists following his lead.
The Love Live! franchise would continue after the School idol project finale through Love Live! Sunshine!!, a sequel franchise of sorts but with a new group Aqours, announced in early 2015; subsequent groups would include Nijigasaki High School Idol Club in Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and Liella! in Love Live! Superstar!!.

As the song "Snow halation" has defined a significant part of the SiIvaGunner channel's identity, this naturally includes branching out to other aspects of the Love Live! School idol project franchise, though to a noticeably greater extent than other channel-defining memes.
However, this only applies to the original School idol project franchise, as rips featuring post-2015 Love Live! songs are more likely to be copyright-flagged.[1] So, while not completely absent from SiIvaGunner, the sequel franchises aren't frequently used.
Aside from "Snow halation", other Love Live! tracks notably used by SiIvaGunner include "Aishiteru Banzai!" and "Natsuiro Egao de 1, 2, Jump!".
The birthday of (almost) every μ's member was celebrated on the channel during Season 1, and the birthday of every Aqours member has been celebrated so far during Season 6.
