What do you get if you mix Kaguya-sama with Teasing Master Takagi? Dunno, but it was the best tagline I could make for this. With this, Yamamoto Souichirou has now had every major manga he's written adapted into anime (Kunoichi from last season, Master Takagi, and this), so that's something, I guess.
It's cute, there's teasing, and it burns through the mini chapters fairly obviously. Glass half-full; that means even weaker setups don't wear out their welcome and there is more likely something for everyone. At this point the characterization is too weak and shallow to connect, but the side characters help and did I mention this is cute?
