Personally I've been watching Oshi No Ko and Hell's Paradise.
Oshi No Ko's intrigue is what I really like about the show. I can't wait to see how it unfolds. The commentary on the entertainment business I think is really cool to see addressed in popular media.
Hell's Paradise is a bit more trashy but it's fun to watch. Sometimes a power fantasy kind of show is just fun to watch from time to time.
I watched Oshi No Ko on an absolute whim, and oh my god, what a first episode. It's an absolute spectacle, and I loved the decision to make it longer. The "hallway scene" was harrowing.
I've been watching Oshi no Ko weekly too (though I wait til Saturday to watch). I used to like idol anime but this is such an interesting perspective on it and I really like the mystery element of it also.
The only other animes that I've seen with an idol theme that I liked were probably Perfect Blue and Vivy -Fluorite Eye's Song-. I'd recommend both for obviously very different reason!
