I really enjoyed this anime. I was looking for something funny and light and it delivered on both accounts. It took me a couple of episodes to get into it but once the story gets going and you get to learn more about the characters, it becomes a worthwhile watch. For me, the art style was good (it reminded me of 7 SEEDS) and the sound was great. Where the anime fell a bit short for me was the story and characters, which is why I rated it seven overall. Based on the simpler plot I was expecting more depth when it came to the characters and their backstories. While you do get more insight for the members of the first troupe, I would've loved to see this followed through with the second troupe as each character had so much intrigue. There was a lot of potential and relatable components that made each character endearing in their own way. I would've liked to see more of what the characters did in their downtime when they weren't practicing. That said, I loved the way the characters challenge each other to improve and how their friendships develop as the story progresses. If you're looking for something lighthearted and fun, with an emphasis on teamwork, A3! Season Spring & Summer does not disappoint.
