Ah, though that's such a low fence to climb.
However,
This is technically the only anime that involves a four girl band (Ohana, Minko, Nako, ??Yuina??, and Tomoe) that I've actually finished. So that says something in my books. Well, actually there might be more, but since I can't remember, my point still stands.

AnoHana's genius is pretty much that it did capture a lot of what made people like Key's stuff in the first place. And unlike KyoAni's work, the endings didn't get somewhat "lost in adaptation" (at least, I feel that way about KyoAni's Key adaptations).

And it worked well. Perhaps Key can hire her to make their stuff less stale.

After reading that, I think most of us are happy with Noe and Hiromi.
But who knows, they could be like the Lost Levels.
