Yes, from the Idol Trial shorts. I'm surprised that wasn't guessed sooner, since I thought it was a straightforward image.

It's good to see that I've tied my score from last quarter in a mere three weeks into this one!

I'm guessing that not a lot of people saw the shorts, I haven't. I just recognized the character art as one of KyoAni's characters and figured it out from there. I actually saw the image last night while I was at work (ah, the joys of working overnights!), but didn't have sufficient time to research her.

Next character:

I recognized that it was a KyoAni show right away but I didn't know which show exactly. I spent a few minutes browsing through a couple KyoAni shows but I quickly gave up since I wasn't sure if it was a character from a show I haven't seen or a side character I couldn't remember. I kinda thought it might be from a short but just wasn't bothered to start going through all of 'em or anything.

I saw and knew the source before I went to sleep but I generally don't like taking consecutive turns so I skipped out on guessing. I also didn't have any other character to prepares so guessing would've held up the game.
