The currently airing anime adaptation of Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian is gaining positive reviews from fans for its characters and its setting.

The anime adaptation of the popular【Oshi No Ko】manga series was one of the major hits of last season, and the series is still exceptionally popular, even though it is on a break.
