Well, while it's wasting time, it's actually a fairly enjoyable episode.
On the other hand, this whole arc (and the whole Vol. 6) feels forced the first time I read through it anyway. On the other hand, I just see any other way of ending the anime outside of Vol. 6 given the time constraint (Original works is still 2 volumes away from the end, and there's no way they can animate 10 volumes with such a pace).

The Valentine's Day episode fell flat after the tense build-up of the previous episode, so I was very skeptical about this episode. As others have mentioned, the threat of Sakurasou being demolished seems like it's being forced upon us, even though we don't give a hoot about the building. I guess the problem is that the anime staff didn't create an atmosphere within Sakurasou that endears us to the place itself. Nor did it seem like the inmates, except Sorata, really gave two figs about it (in the first two minutes and forty-five seconds of the episode).

You can thanks JC Staff for that...they totally f**k up the episode anyway.
