After School Insomniacs: this had a few good ideas, but it kinda fell short of what it feels it should've been. They don't focus that much on the insomnia, which might be the most interesting part, and the cast isn't so great. The main highlight is when the two MCs are with each other, so the second half was somewhat stronger, but the final episode was a bit of a letdown. I've heard the manga's quite a bit better here.

Tonikaku Kawaii S2 is about as good as S1 I think. Still slow with progress, still pretty cute, still a solid side cast with some fun additions this season (and Kyuma, who sucks). I enjoyed it a little less than S1 since it isn't as fresh, but I'll still check out the mini-season that's starting soon.

Birdie Wing S2 was a bit of a step down from S1, thanks to some silly illness drama and the elimination of yuri. Most of the season is still great thankfully, with lots of ridiculously over the top golf, mafia antics, and bizarrely complex backstories from the two MCs. It's a shame the end was a little rushed; I think it was intentional, but it would've been nice to have another episode to finish up and finally give us what we've been wanting all this time.

Oshi no Ko basically lived up to the hype. Great show from start to finish, though I knew several of the twists going in. Great animation and direction, and Aqua's an awesome protagonist. Even the idol stuff managed not to rub me the wrong way too much; thankfully there's not a lot of it, though I'd probably prefer the manga version for that stuff. The last couple episodes don't focus on Aqua as much, so they're not as good, but his sequences are still great, and some of the other characters, like Kana, are pretty cool too.
