Spoiler for Episode 1:

Another pleasant surprise to come this season. The character designs are heavily realistic and the story is centered around male idols wanting to enter the highly professional domain, I actually liked most of it. There's some good comedy to complement the lighthearted setting and the music was nice to hear. The 3DCGI is there albeit it feels more hand-drawn than it was. The bad thing however is that I can already see it being overlooked, though the first episode was pretty good so far, I'll glance over a few other episodes.
