While music-oriented like Aki no Kanade, Music Girls varies greatly from the more light dramatic mood of Aki no Kanade and opts more for more conventional territory with its premise revolving around our two lead girls aspiring to be idol singers. With said conventional territory comes the typical annoyances of high school anime comedies with Haru being our "genki gal" character and Eri the apparent tsundere, some moments of fan service (like a certain bath scene), and many failed attempts at comedy between the two. The short opts to develop a friendship between the two and has a dramatic twist near the end in testing their bond, though the anime lacks the necessary time to have you convinced this would be something legitimate. Overall, the premise of this short would have seemed better executed if it were a season-long TV anime. But even then, the title's more conventional storytelling would turn me off more than draw me into it.
