Actually, it looks like Utako got removed from the ED of episode 7. Then ep 8 also removed Hina. So it's not just a one-off. Not quite sure where they're going with it, though.
I finally managed to correctly predict one of the sub-stories of an episode (Mami as psychic girl). I didn't expect them to go all the way to the "Hina has to leave" story, though. But, once again, it really fits with the other stories in the episode. The directory has continued to show his skill in putting together just the right stories to keep everything well-balanced.
It does help that most of the original manga doesn't have a hard timeline, and most things can be shuffled around. The only real requirements are when characters are introduced, and incidents like Hina's broken leg.
Regardless, great episode.
