"Ray is performing the opening theme song composed by Shinji Orito and written by KOTOKO, while Nagi Yanagi is performing the ending theme song composed by Tomoyuki Nakazawa and written by Nagi Yanagi."
The latter half of this sentence seems a little bit redundant to me, because Nagi Yanagi's name is in there fully, twice- they are the same Nagi Yanagi, right? It feels like it'd work better as two sentences to me, with the latter put together a little bit differently. I am probably just being too picky here, though.

On the topic of the show- I was kind of excited when I saw the title, but for some reason, the shown character designs lead me to believe that I won't care for this show. I hope that, while it is described as an adolescent romantic comedy, it will have some substance to it. That description doesn't bode well with me, even with these staff members. I have a feeling it'll be service-heavy...

I really like the character designs and absolutely loved AnoHana and Onegai Twins/Teacher. Fanservice or not, it's definitely something I'm looking forward to in January. I bet most (of the late night crowd at least) are anticipating something of the same caliber.

Seeing as I sometimes suspect that I'm the one anime fan who strongly disliked both AnoHana and Toradora despite all the screaming-to-the-heavens noisy praise for both, I think it's safe for me to give this one the stamp of preemptive skipping.

You're definitely not alone. I still want to give it a shot, though, if only to see if this series can steer clear of the teenage romantic melodorama so prevalent in the mentioned series.

Awesome to see Nagi being able to sing more anime themes. Heck, I'll probably watch the first episode just for that.

I'm a little disappointed that Haruka Tomatsu isn't doing one of the songs.

The acclaimed director of ToraDora, Railgun, AND AnoHana? Sweet! This guy always gives me hope that anime will return to its former radiance! Very Happy
