Heh - well, yeah. I don't think "romance" really is one of the genres for this show, which is probably a bit of a play on the industry in itself, since "availability" is one of the (stereotypical) requirements for a new/young popstar/idol. The Drama CD that was just released definitely plays up on the "failing miserably to hit on their manager" bit; it's not really that he's that dense, but it's part of the job. Him getting romantically close to any of the girls puts him, the girl, and the company's reputation in jeopardy. Much to the girls' chagrin, though -- maybe the challenge is why they keep trying?
