Have watched the episode. Rather than ramble on:

I think it worked in terms of Bones storyline and characterisations in terms of Maka and Crona, and overall worked for me (having grudgingly accepted that Bones is on its own terms, and nothing is going to bring Okubo's back ).

I think the major letdown was the conclusion for Medusa and Stein. One deemed simply 'evil' and so destroyed, the other 'redeemed' through the goodness and acceptance of a woman who, while understanding that Stein isn't all bad, doesn't seem to recognise why he isn't that nice a person. It remains to be seen whether the writers will refer back to Stein's sadistic side.
