Edit: After watching the whole episode, knowing the game story, I'm completely happy with the way things are heading. I like how they blended in the first season with Koko, and made reference to the band. But of course the real story is Otome, Yume, and especially Sakura. I was suprised by how much foreshadowing they were leaving! They're definitely making what's going on a little bit more obvious right from the get-go, but I can see why (mostly time management).
In terms of the production, I love the music as usual. ED is great as they all are -- totally love it. The OP... I like the song, actually, but I'm not a big fan of what they did animation wise with it in the beginning -- it gets better as it goes though. Art and animation continue to be much like the first season, which makes sense since this really the same production split in two parts.
All in all, this is looking like it's going to be the game adaptation I wanted it to be, so it makes me happy.

What's the point in putting that in a spoiler-tag? You didn't really mention anything about the plot, just "They are hinting at what will happen, and it seems to be exactly what I hoped for."...
Apart from that, now I'm getting pretty excited about this, hope someone gets a fansubbed version out quickly. (Though I miss Minatsu. You didn't mention anything about her, but seeing that the main site doesn't even aknowledge her existence anymore, I can only assume that she's not there anymore. Damn writing-staff.)
