I think it is. The only complaints I had (two, and I was probably nitpicking on one) were so minimal they stopped bothering me around the second episode or so.
Frances was a nice bonus/surprise, especially since I was already enjoying most of the cast.
Because it makes me feel older than I am, I want to take a moment to mention that Frances is now a teenager (13) and Aiko is the same age Haruka was when she joined Musume (11).
Frances (and friends) dancing to "Bar Bar Bar" by Crayon Pop on stage. Part 1 Part 2 ----
Apparently also a video of two SNH48 members dancing to their first song (released while they were part of H!P Taiwan in 2009), "Da Xiao Jie". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP3qAUA0Bug
Yeah. In December Frances will be 15 and Aiko will be 13.
I'm hoping they'll gear up for a new album sometime soon (would be nice to have a mid-2016 release). I want to see what kind of direction they'll go in now that they're both visibly older.
Frances... 15?! What happened to my 9 year old baby . They're all grown up now, I feel old lol. I hope with their maturing, their sound kinda matures too.
