I love how the comments are on same thought of "MAPPA The Animation"

[Frontier]

I thought this was a "MAPPA does Shirobako" but with that premise is it actually a romance ?

[Nachtwandler]

I thought to joke that it does not look bad enough for being "MAPPA the animation" but the director noty wishing to explain why drafts are not good enough already makes the mood...

Even as rose-colored as Shirobako was compared to RL, there’s no way in hell MAPPA would allow anything remotely close to that to be made on their watch. Way too on the nose.

That's why I assume it's less about the actual process or production-work but the protagonists' own attempt to understand love (judging by the premise).
