As someone who has seen most of the Pretty Series (save for Himitsu no AiPri), I think this is one of the most solid seasons in a while.
The characters, which are by far my favorite part, are well-developed and not too gimmicky unlike other previous series.
If you're like me, an adult viewer following the franchise (or even a teen), I believe this season will be easier to follow that Pripara + Idol time pripara and Kiratto. I'd think it will be enterely a matter of preference in animation style and light-heartedness whether you like this season or the most dramatic Pretty Rhythm.

positive - if controversial - point is that is a standalone series, with surprisingly few shot outs to the previous series. While as a long time follower this might seem strange, I think it makes it adequate as an introduction to Pretty Series overall. If I was recommending a non-chronological order to watch the series I'd definitely do that.
In regards to the music, is as solid as usual, and with a different style to that of previous seasons. For me, that'll always be a reason to continue invested in the series. The "last boss" song is particularly memorable. The distribution is similar to Aikatsu! Friends, since all the songs are either duets or solos.
I'm only taking away one point because despite the number of episodes, the resolution after the climax felt fast. In addition, while the ending had a good feel to it, in a way it was also a cop-out of the bittersweet ending. The MC has the typical "red protag" personality, but one has to admit her ending was unlike anything in this franchise.
