Crunchyroll has added the 13th episode of Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto. This means viewers can now finally see the season ender, regardless of the delay in its original airing schedule.

Anime News Network even gives an insight into director Shinji Takamatsu's comments regarding the schedule. Apparently, it was tailored to the medium of television, and that it was 'truly disappointing' that things didn't go exactly as planned. However, special coverage of the Kumamoto earthquakes pushed the schedule of their second episode, therefore also pushing all other episodes' broadcast to a one week delay.

Hofmag describes Sakamoto as, basically, the perfect guy. A role model the girls all swoon over, and subsequently hated by the guys for it, no challenge seems too big or small for our main character. Witty, he's believed by the school to be the coolest person on campus. All-in-all, a Gary Sue, for those of you who know that particular trope.

As for a plot synopsis, fandompost comments:

"First year high school student Sakamoto isn't just cool, he's the coolest! ... There's even a boy in the class who works as a model, but who is constantly upstaged by Sakamoto! ... Though Sakamoto may seem cool and aloof, he helps others when asked, such as in the case of the boy in his class who was being constantly bullied..."

The anime, as stated earlier, is directed by Shinji Takamatsu, who also directed Gintama and School Rumble. Character design is Atsuko Nakajima's, of You're Under Arrest and Ranma ½ fame. The manga from which the series is based, is the debut story of Nami Sano. Its accolades include best "male-oriented" comics volume award by Da Vinci Magazine, and the Comic Natalie Grand Prize in 2013.
