Mixed Feelings
Had high hopes for this anime, the concept on showing the dark side of being an idol and social media with the contrast of the bright colors you can see in the art is very interesting. The opening music video ( https://myanimelist.net/anime/55016/Idol ) is a 10/10 which helped with the hype for the show, and the 1st episode which is a double special can stand on it's own as a 10/10 as well, so I think the anime got such a good rating early on because of that. So what happens from here?

Starting from the MC (main character), is such a breath of fresh air having a MC who's actually smart, and despite having all the situations to be a pervert, he chose not to, unlike other shitty MCs whose that's their only defining trait (looking at you chainsaw man).
So all seems to be going fine until it's introduced this romantic sub-plot which inevitably leads to bad writting and poorly written characters (which hurts by having one of them being a main), and the main plot got massively side-tracked. For some reason they also took the almost-perfect written MC and made every girl fall in love with him just because he's hot I guess?

Still interested on watching the 2nd season because the main plot is genuinely good, but because of the flaws after the strong start, I can't give the anime a 10 like everyone else.
