Movie
Description
Leah Kazuno attends Hakodate Seisen Girls' Academy, progressing from first-year to second-year. Her designated image color is pure white. As the younger sister of Sarah Kazuno, she co-founded the idol unit Saint Snow, serving as the rapper.
Leah's persistent shyness and difficulty socializing caused her to distance herself from classmates, mirroring Ruby Kurosawa's experiences. This reserved nature stemmed from discomfort around others, though she gradually gained confidence upon realizing her classmates' acceptance. She possesses exceptional agility, performing acrobatic feats like somersaulting over Aqours members during their initial encounter, often with a competitive smirk.
Her personality blends stoicism with intense competitiveness. She initially showed hostility toward Aqours, criticizing them after Tokyo idol events and chastising Chika Takami for questioning Saint Snow's determination to win Love Live!. Despite an outwardly aloof demeanor in groups, she harbored deep conviction for Saint Snow's goals, fighting back tears after their competition failures. Her paramount loyalty to Sarah led her to vehemently defend her sister's abilities over others like Dia Kurosawa.
Saint Snow disbanded following a critical choreography error during a Hakodate regional preliminary, causing them to fall onstage. This failure devastated Leah, who retreated to her family's restaurant and tearfully insisted on disbanding. Ruby Kurosawa intervened, relating to Leah's struggles. Their conversation initiated a collaboration: Leah joined Ruby, Yoshiko Tsushima, and Hanamaru Kunikida to form the temporary unit "Saint Aqours Snow." Together, they composed and performed "Awaken the power" at a Christmas event, dedicating it to their sisters. This process helped Leah reconnect with classmates who expressed pride in her efforts, moving her to tears. Following the performance, Leah formally dissolved Saint Snow but committed to starting a new idol group.
In the movie continuity, Leah and Sarah later assisted Aqours during practice, where Leah harshly criticized Aqours' perceived decline after their third-years graduated, though her underlying support persisted. When Ruby learned Leah considered joining Aqours permanently, she objected, reminding Leah of her vow to create an independent group. This prompted a joint livestream concert: Saint Snow reunited for a final performance of "Believe again," while Aqours performed "Brightest Melody." The event reaffirmed Leah's resolve to build her own unit. Post-credits scenes showed her actively recruiting members for this new group.
