Episode 3:[COLOR="SeaGreen"]...
[-] Akiba mysteriously vanish from that scene where Nagi fell down from trying to hug Jin. Which is a really big WTF "Ooops we screw up there" moment that I'm surprised no here has mention it. Akiba was standing right next to Jin as they both watch Nagi fell to the ground. Then next moment later (commericals), (and we're back) a bright white flash with a different view angle and Akiba is no longer on screen. ~I hope they fix this in the DVD release or something....
Interesting points. I'll take a stab at answering the negatives.
1. If you took the bgm out, the first kitten scene might seem too serious. I suspect they tried it without, but decided it needed something, or else the comedy part would jar more than you found the music did. And also that this sequence would not link up with the following one. I felt the music added some odd kind of richness to the scene, but I'm not sure why.

2. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean, I'd say that was the whole point. He had a change of heart. He realized he'd been too harsh, reacting too emotionally, and that she was a worthy "person" who needed him, and whom he liked having around. Ripping off the bandage symbolized his change of heart and determination to go get her.

3. Akiba was there before Nagi's run, then they removed everyone but the two principals during the brighter comic run and when she hit the ground. They put him back after she hit the ground (not while), then took him away in the scene shot from above, because his presence would detract from the Nagi-Jin-group of guys focus of the scene. They might have felt that having him there again for that brief moment, at least a back view, increased the humor. Or else that it improved the visual composition. Maybe it would have been better to just leave him out altogether from the time she started her run. Or maybe not. In any case, nice catch.

If it is true that Yamakan is not good at scheduling, and the staff doesn't get enough time to really do the job, then we're likely to see more continuity problems in the future (if that's what that was).
