Hey, maybe you should watch the show and make up your own mind before stating that the studio has "failed".

Ami's comment should probably become more apparent in the next arc anyway. It's called foreshadowing.

Also, the only pop culture jokes come from Minorin, and I'm pretty sure most of those are in the novels anyway.

Sakura Kanou can be seen in episodes 13 and 14.

She only really shows up in the Spin-Off, in any case.

They'll probably add something in later to make up for it. They've done that before.

I think that may have been the point, yeah.
