DOLLCHESTRA

SayaTsuzu (also known as DOLLCHESTRA) is the femslash ship between Yugiri Tsuzuri and Murano Sayaka from the Love Live! fandom.

Canon
Yugiri meets Sayaka and immediately takes an interest in her. She invites her to watch her school idol performance to which Sayaka agrees. Sayaka is mesmerised by her performance and agrees to become a school idol, which delights Tsuzuri, who pats her on the head. Later on, when comforting Kaho, Sayaka mentions she never intended to join a club but tagged along to cheer her up, claiming that because of it she had a 'wonderful encounter'. Kaho asks her if this was with Tsuzuri, which she confirms.

They form a subunit together called DOLLCHESTRA seperate from Kaho and Kozue.

Later on, Sayaka becomes offended on Tsuzuri's behalf when Kaho says she expected Tsuzuri to struggle with technology instead of Kozue. When speaking to Kaho alone, Sayaka says she will do her best to perform while Tsuzuri is watching her. In another episode Sayaka says to Kaho she has been having a lot of fun as a school idol and has received a lot of guidance from Tsuzuri. She then expresses she doesn't know how Tsuzuri feels about it, to which Kaho assures her that she also feels nervous.

Sayaka and Tsuzuri both watch Cerise Bouquet perform. They later walk back to the dorms together. Sayaka says she is grateful for Tsuzuri telling her about school idols. Tsuzuri acknowledges that Sayaka works hard and Sayaka then proceeds to ask her to what she wants for lunch the next day.

 * Their cover of Ifuudoudou began popular among shippers due to the nature of the lyrics.
 * DOLLCHESTRA songs are usually love songs, sometimes tragic (such as Tragic Drops), sometimes 'classic love song', as demonstrated below:
 * Tragic Drops - "I thought I could get through this situation with you, yeah I thought so... But I don't want to be a burden to you. I'm sorry, I like you... I never promised to stay by your side... I want you to wet my cheeks and take away my tears... I'll keep looking for your warmth... there are facets of you that I can't touch... I wanted to be with you, but I felt I was pushing you too hard... I don't want to hurt you, I want you to move on... There's no reason for you to stay by my side... I'm sure love is the reason I'm suffering... I was so happy with the hope you once gave me... Even if I don't have a hand to hold..."
 * Sparkly Spot - "If my heart desires it, no doubt I'll scream with all sincerity... The world in which I believed, I want to see it with you... I won't stop, it all depends on my feelings..."
 * Kibouteki Prism - "I guess I'll get used to having feelings..."
