It took you 13 freaking episodes to notice that?


Anyway, the episode was quite a disappointment; simply because it wasn't engaging enough for me. True, these are crucial plot points and will be even more important for the final episode... but, well. Personally, it's the episode lowest in entertainment in this whole series, for me. I don't know if it could have been done much better, simply because the subject matter is in itself not arousing material.

Oh yes, the discordant strings during the conversation with the oyaji in Asukara's apartment building.. was horrible. Sure, you can pull it off when very appropriately used in context with a clever performance, but that was just.. bad. It just deflated any momentum and created the wrong sort of atmosphere.

However though, I have MASSIVE expectations for the final episode. Onwards!
