this show is a lot more meta than i expected; it even had rough 4-koma for earlier scenes of this very episode, something that Haruno wouldn't have knowledge of...?

Haruno herself seems like an author self-insert who's drawing the same manga that we're watching right now; she also says that she writes yurui (laid-back) manga too

Comic Girls also had drafts of 4koma with a different approach on Meta-commentary. God, there's not a single day I'd wish we could get a 2nd season of Comic Girls.

…Surely you mean "not a single day I don't wish"?

Yeah it is a little meta, but regardless I think this is great, I already watching too much anime this season, but I can't help adding this CGDCT offering to my watchlist.
