See the first chapter. Alya flirts with Kuze-kun in Russian, thinking he can't understand her, when in reality he can due to (a) picking up Russian from his grandfather's love of Russian movies, and (b) interacting with a mysterious Russian girl he used to hang out with at a local park when he was young. (Said girl turns out to be Masha, not Alya, as we find out later in the light novel). Kuze-kun figures that Alya would freak out/pass out if he revealed his secret to her, due to the relatively intimate things she said to him; so he keeps it to himself, also figuring she would be more truthful while commenting to him in Russian if she continues to think he can't understand her.
He should probably wait until she's carrying his child before he tells her...

Dude, its the same thing as with the koreans, and their "duke of the north" shoujo manhwa love interest trope. Its such a part of the culture(?) its simpler to accept it.

Well, its kinda your problem. The characters there most likely wouldnt really have perfect russian pronunciation, what with their constant moving between two countries and thus, most likely, irregular usage of russian.
Now, if you mean crappy in terms of sentence structure, here i agree, grates a bit.

This guy was on the Russian team...

Fwiw the English dub legitimately has good Russian, and the English VA cast has done a great job with the dub so far. I found the Japanese dub unwatchable because her Russian was barely intelligible, but I have no problem understanding what the English VA is saying in Russian and the show is pretty great in English too.

I don't know if anything in here is past chapter 42 so possible spoilers for those who have only read to here and haven't watched the manga.

What manga/anime is this? Or is it just original artwork?
From an idol sim: Idolmaster Cinderella Girls (add Starlight Stage to the name and you get the rhythm game version). No official english ver tho.

Also yes, it has an anime.
