That was a good episode. Had its own emotional impact, even if I think the last episode had a bit more.
At least Yuuki gave Asuna the confidence and motivation to take the fight to her mother. She just had to find the place and moment to go all out. Not a bad tactic at all to use her grandparents. The one weak spot that came up when it came to that woman was her own parents. Nothing like a comparison in that Asuna's grandparents supported their daughter in the path she chose for her life while protecting a place for her if she ever got tired of it. So a good reason that Asuna's own mother should follow that example and stop trying to force her daughter to live the life she wants her to live. Not to mention going at it from the sense that she wants to be that kind of supportive person who can bring smiles to the lives of those around her. No better way to hit home that she has her own aspirations and intentions.
Nothing wrong with how her mother chose to live her life. Worked her way to prominence, married within that circle, and has continued onward and upward. But, that doesn't mean there aren't other ways to live. Nothing wrong with the logic that Asuna should go as far as possible so she can be the kind of person she wants to be. That's a fair stance in comparison to what we got earlier on.
