Mixed Feelings
SPOILERS AHEAD

I'm a sucker for cute girls, this literally has them as both the main characters and the side characters.

Story isn't anything to write home about, it's a flavor of the week episodic thing with 2-3 tie-ins from last episode.

The show is driven by character interactions, comedy and references. If you don't like those, you're not gonna like this show. I love those, so I like this show a lot.

Art is subpar, yes, but it gets the job done, and even if this show had Fate Zero style fight scenes, the shounen watchers would complain that this show doesn't take itself seriously, that the plot is nonexistent, the jokes are occasionally cliche, and the character design is predictably boring.

The show is _actually_ funny if you like watching Kamen Rider without context clips on youtube, or if you liked akibaranger, the live action super sentai spoof show. It's not as good as say Full Metal Alchemist Fumoffu, or Ghost Stories dub but it's better than Desert Punk dub. It's probably about as good as Inferno Cop or Panty and Stocking dub.

I looked forward to watching this show as I was going through it (I can't say the same of many shounen/seinen that I've seen, particularly fate or re:zero), and the dialogue was actually _not_ terrible because of how accurate/intelligent it was. For example, there's an idol episode, where a mute girl wants to become a singing idol, but she literally does not have vocal chords. There's a fast paced series of actions that supporting characters do to actually do a small debut at a mall, and it wraps up rather cleanly, but the logistics of actually doing the event are somewhat explained.

Oh and the final episode is literally about how mergers and acquisitions from giant corporations are flawed when it comes to actually delivering product in a reasonable fashion. This show does not shy from real world scenarios/premises, and does a convincing job of going through some thought experiments.

8/10, would recommend to anyone that liked Robot Girl Z
