I only have a problem with "queerbaiting" when the show is all "oh but OBVIOUSLY THEY'RE ACTUALLY STRAIGHT LOL LOL GAY PEOPLE ARE GROSS AND FUNNY". Which, yeah, is what Sherlock BBC did and YOI hasn't done at all so far. I have enjoyed a number of purely-subtextual-but-significent f/f relationships in anime (generally aimed at dudes) and this feels a lot like that, deliberately ramping up the fanservice but not spitting on queer people in the process. I'd prefer a canon relationships but until they become more commonplace in mainstream tv this isn't too bad.
Huh I hadn't noticed the credit changes! watches credits carefully completely fails to notice any changes
