As for the boys part, I would say M4 haven't really shown their role in the anime so far (not even romance things) so we might just need more time to tell whether their inclusion is good or bad. The folloing episodes (until ep10) would still focus on Yume and her close girls.

Just repeat what I said from the blogpost about BANDAi's independent game series for male idols, romance or not, the real deal is whether M4 is gonna have their own place in the game and in the idol market of the real world. If their importance is just as big as More Than True, then it's a big dislike IMO.

Not to consider that characters, since this school is portrayed to be include both genders (just in different branches), we should not criticize this part cause this does answer that male idols take education too. Just rather weird that no rookie boys like Yume are noted at this point.
