The lead seiyuu, however, is outstanding. Her voice has subtlety and feeling....

When I first watched the OP, I was very happy to see the good 2D dancing. But the actual 3D dancing in the show looks bad to me, graceless stick-figures.
Very fair assessments imo. I agree that the seiyuu (only 13 eh? wow....) really is a pleasure to listen to!

I am not a fan of the 3d animation style in most any anime series I have seen - akb, Kingdom and this series being no exceptions to this.

But it is indeed a slightly younger audience and nowhere near as "involved" a storyline (at least after 3 eps) as, say, Yume Pat, which is I still re-watch from time to time, in fact - I find it has a lot of re-watchability.

Also - the card thing is something I kinda conveniently ignore.
