There were some more character development as well as plot progression this episode. Of course, that epic looking new sword looks really enticing as well.

The episode clearly shows that Felli has feelings for Layfon. If not, she would not have subconsciously hid the letter. Mei was very cute this episode as well. I guess she represents normalcy for Layfon.

What made me curious was the Zuellni spirit trying to open Layfon's letter. Does she have a crush on him as well?

Nina just seems like she needs to just work things through. She is feeling insufficient as the platoon captain, which could lead her to push herself beyond what she should. They did mention that she had potential in episode 2, so hopefully, she will become an elite one day without ruining herself.

About the inter-platoon match at the beginning of the episode... If it was that easy to just shoot at the flag, then there really isn't much of a point for the competition. They can just have snipers shoot at each other's flags. It just seems like they made it plot convenient to show Nina's agitation.
