Girlish Number

[Ryllharu]

To be fair, I did say this was the anti-Shirobako. The lack of accomplishment in anything of any quality is all part of that.

Compare and contrast to plucky redhead Sakaki Shizuka to Chitose. One scrapes and scrounges to get even a minor role despite moderate talent and is overjoyed for the opportunity to the point of tears, versus Chitose who is literally handed roles by her brother, half-asses it, and bitches about it all the time while being an arrogant little shit.

Or:
- Momoka who benefits from nepotism
- Shibasaki who thinks her roles in shitty series are demeaning
- Utterly clueless Yae and Nanami

and:
- Katakura who actually gets the environment they're in and tries to stay optimistic
