that last episode was oddly rushed... they cut out quite a bit of manga material, and when it comes to these kinds of series, cutting out material is generally the LAST thing you want since you typically need to stretch a lot to avoid catching up to the manga...

Some of the unimportant non-spoilerish stuff they cut out (some of which will be greatly missed...

Spoiler:

As for the more important actually spoilerish bits... i don't really consider them to have been "cut out" just yet... there is the possibility that they may have just rearranged the timing of those events. Sometimes things might flow a bit better...

for instance, in one of those scenes, they make reference to a character who will come up later... however that character won't come in until AFTER the next arc; and that's kinda of a long way to wait. As such, the anime team might have thought it better to save that scene till after this coming arc.
