[Kaoru Chujo]

Yukana was terrific. We can argue about Irisu, I suppose, but the way Yukana did her voice was an eleven out of ten for me. A bit artificial, but so self-confident, and with such smooth grace and power.

Irisu is highly dangerous, but dangerous in a good cause. That is what the couple of women I have known who were like her have been, too. I liked and admired them both -- all the time trying to keep out of their way, lol. But when they caught me and got me to do stuff, I had to admit they were using me better than I would use myself.

I loved the way Oreki's mind was seen to be changing. I loved the conversation on the street between him and Satoshi, and what we learned about both of them. Eru stopping herself from telling Oreki something in public was so interesting. And it was great to realize that just as his fame expands, Oreki discovers he was likely wrong. Mayaka continues to be done so brilliantly well by Kayano Ai.
