I think pacing was the major issue with the "1st Generation" because
this was in monthly installment and author did it in real time until the
very end. And he typically produced only 24 pages a month, including
the cover. (In contrast, weekly manga is 18 pages plus cover.) The
story is quite dense so he could draw a little bigger and get the page
count up but I think plotting was an issue and he can only come up with
so much story every month.
So typically they have to devote the April issue to recruiting newHe used those games for the intended purpose though it was
member. Then there are typically couple conventions they attend and
preparing for them. And a school festival. You never see any of them studying nor find out what their majors are. This is problematic for
the supposed main character Sasahara, who was new to the otaku culture
at the beginning and never did much except to try out some "ero games."
And yet he landed a job as a manga editor when he graduated. Most other characters have their niche from the beginning and they just kind of
stuck to it. Saki just came along because she likes Koosaka and didn't contribute much except being forced into cosplay here and there.
Oota, another female student, joined fairly early on and another girl,
Ogiue, joined much later. She draws manga so the club felt more evenly balanced but in one storyline she drew yaoi manga starring two male
members of the club.

At the beginning of Season 2, Ohno and Sue were cosplaying as characters
from a manga, did you know what manga that was from? It's an obscure
parody of a very well-known manga series.
Also, Sue's often saying "Ogiue is my bride/wife" (not sure if they used
wife or bride in the English translation). This line actually came form
the same manga.
