That was all right, but fundamentally still only a modestly satisfying episode. It was nice to bring the focus within shouting distance of something more important than omurice, but no amount of persuasion can make Enishi and Takako compelling viewing for me, and the subject of Tohru's supposed crush on Ohana is only marginally more so. I would have hoped for better from a "canon" Okada-written ep.
Of course the big cliffhanger is, what does Sui plan to do with the inn? Satsuki? Closure? Mr. Ren and Tomoe? In terms of whether the entire series is a troll on the relationship front, it's certainly possible. I do think it's a certainty we'll see Kou again, but nowhere near as much that he'll be truly important in the final arc.
