Akane being the main antagonist instantly made this show better for me. I have a soft spot for cute psychotic villains. It was fun to see her reactions to the destruction her Kaiju was causing. Very interested in why she's doing this, and what her relationship with Rikka is/was like. The ED implies they were close.
Of course, there were other reasons this episode was good. The reveal dead people stayed dead but memories were rewritten and reality altered to accommodate their death was a great one. If this keeps up, their city will become a ghost town. Assuming it is a real city in the first place and they're not inside a simulation or something.
Samurai Calibur is a cool character, and I can't wait to see the rest of the assist weapons. I don't know if Obari directed the scene, but whoever did was clearly inspired by his work. That pose is unmistakable!
