I wouldn't be surprised if the opening is changed after the first episode.

Based on the OP, I don't know if it's me but there are some characters that I can't even recognize even in the manga like this batch

I don't know if some of them are anime original or the show just keeps on deceiving me that these persons are.... I mean just look at the OP.

Or not, like PMMM "Connect".

More like they aren't anime original, but the characters that appeared at some point and didn't have a clear design or very much time in manga. Like a spoiler[students and teacher in Yuki delusions in first chapter, Kurumi's friend from the track team and some more.]

Aw man, that is the most adorable false advertisement I've ever seen since Madoka.

Aw, it's so deceptively cute. And yet ANN still spoils it with the summary. Razz

Doubt it, otherwise they'd be some early information on music releases or promotions of another theme (since music is meant to be sold)

That's probably why they have Maon Kurosaki to do the ED, to sing a less cute-sy theme.

From left to right:

spoiler[This is Yuki's teacher from the first scene]... take a look at the glasses.

spoiler[I'm guessing that this is what Kei is going to look like, since her original character design isn't very memorable, and she looks like the sort of girl who might be friends with Miki.]

spoiler[This is the track club guy.]

spoiler[This might be the older male teacher who gives Megu-nee the emergency manual.]

spoiler[But I thought this is Kei]
Well anyways I'm 99.99% sure that the 4 chara's above are not anime-original, it's just that they spoiler[either turned into a zombie or appeared in the flashbacks]
@BodaciousSpacePirate thanks for the clarification

spoiler[Yeah, you're right, that definitely looks like her, plus her uniform is consistent with Miki's own first-year outfit. ] Since the hair-streak girl's uniform is the same as Yuki's, she might one of the background characters from the first chapter, such as spoiler[the gardening club member that Yuki "talks" to on the roof. It wouldn't be strange for Yuki to "populate" her delusions with classmates, after all.]

Do you mean "terrible" in a good way? Like playing The Sims with nothing but babies and fireplaces?
