What life changing encounter? Chihaya and Arata were classmates for awhile before they started talking to one another.

As for "childhood friendship in danger", we already know that this friendship doesn't end due to the first half of the episode.

This is simple daily living, imo, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Kids go through disputes with their friends and peers all the time. Kids meet new kids every time they go to new schools, or new kids come to their school. It's a basic part of life. And that's a big part of the reason why I call it "slice of life". When I think "drama", I think about overarching conflicts that are much more intense than this. Chihayafuru might develop into that, but it's not there yet, imo.
