Wow, this episode was all over the place mood-wise.
You have the amazingly upbeat pancake party, and then once the antagonists show up you get that
severe music change. It's almost hilarious how quickly Little Busters! can shift moods from one extreme to the other.
And wow... talk about your melodrama and your contorted faces. Those antagonistic girls overacted so much that it
was hilarious.
Kuruguya's door-destroying kick certainly was incredible.
Anyway, strong start for ~Refrain~. I like the new OP.
