Episode 11 was honestly pretty fantastic. Not quite sure if my favorite episode in the season so far is this one or 7, but either way, the show overall has been great since episode 6 after a minor slump in episode 4 and 5. Part of that is just Kyunkyun being a fantastic Cure, but I think the Idol team's really strong dynamic also helps a lot even in episodes where the budget is laughably bad. Uta's dream involving her two dear friends is very sweet, though it's kind of funny how she admits how she really loves them in front of her maybe love interest, kek. Also, that group transformation was really great and High Emotion being a triple spiral beam was pretty cool.
Overall, I'd say Kimi to Idol feels like a possible top 10 season to me so far, but it's too early to judge.

Kaito's only really been a negative in episode 4 for me. For his episode 5 and 10 appearaces, he was pretty harmless where in episode 11, it felt like he actually did the mentor role decently by listening to Uta's concerns and giving his opinion on the matter in a way that doesn't feel completely generic (like in episode 5).
