Cute girls doing cute things with a vague musical theme. However, both get surprisingly emotional towards the end. They both deal with the growing bonds between the girls, and the melancholy feelings that arise as they begin to drift apart, and the threat of separation looms overhead. They both also have well-animated concert scenes, so if you like j-pop and sakuga, at least watch those.
