    The anime adaptation was beautiful and worth all your time, for those who like romantic high school comedies. The voice acting, scene execution and visuals were at peak performance for me. The pacing and direction of the anime was acceptable for us, while except for one or few episodes for some manga readers, because they were lacking the memorable panels in the manga. The ending sequence was familiar, it reminded me of another anime credits ED, I assume I watched in the past.

    The episodes were lit, and the expressions made it even better, including the sound effects. As for the hints shown in the ED scene, we manga readers got trolled. I expected fireworks, and indeed, we got fireworks, but damn it! The planes actually meant that chapter where Kaguya and Shirogane were awkwardly avoiding each other, as Fujiawara mistook it as a game with Ishigami being collateral damage. The anime OP also subtle or very blunt signs regarding the characters, particularly Hayasaka dancing.

    Other hints are manga reader-only possible to understand, and could be used for possible season 2 production? Not exactly a spoiler for anime-only, but two characters were shown in the school hallway. Yes, the two girls, especially the girl that never turned to see Kaguya chasing after Shirogane. If there will be a season 2, I hope the same level of quality or even better will be shown in the anime adaptation. Oh, for anime-only, season 2 should likely be Ishigami's spotlight or season.

    I'm still waiting for the Fujiawara Arc, as author did state it will be unexpected and BOOM! Prepare for possibly darker backstory than the rest of the Student Council?

    The entirety of the manga is meme format treasure shove, and with the author inserting meta memes right there and then.

    Haven't watched the last episode yet but I agree. This anime gets plenty of love from its staff. The production value and effort they've put into this anime was really amazing. I haven't watch anything with this much quality since A Place Further Than The Universe.
