As much as I like the narrative points & events of this episode, I really don't like all the "talking is a free action"-moments. It almost took me out of the story entirely. Really annoying.
Like, all the monsters were supposed to be flying wild & attacking the cruise ship based on what the dukedom princess said, but they only did it when it's convenient for the plot. Whenever Angie & Livia have heart-to-heart talks or inner thoughts, the monsters were conveniently flying around like grunts from Bruce Lee movies instead of attacking. I have criticized Shield Hero for the exact same sin in the past and it's only fair to treat this episode the same.
Other than that, I don't have much beef with it. Just hoping that Leon finally snaps out of it after Livia's outburst.
