To anyone who is planning to give Kaguya-sama a try without having read the manga, because they heard a lot of positive buzz about it from manga readers:
I don't know how good the adaptation will be or which chapters they'll choose to include, but don't be surprised if the first few episodes only make you feel lukewarm about it.
After rereading the beginning again as someone who absolutely loves the rest: The early material, while still entertaining, is probably the weakest part of the manga, and it doesn't fully hit its stride with comedy greatness until what will sadly be in the second half of the anime.
It only gets better with the addition of characters, heartfelt moments, long-term setups and payoffs and the introduction of fresh running gags, way beyond the simple premise of the early chapters, but most of that will not make it into the limited scope of the anime adaptation.
