Well, chapter 6 is the calm before the storm. It worked for me since it was easy-going (relatively speaking) and a nice breather between chapters 5 & 7.
Now the problem is that this worked perfect for the novel since you could read all three immediately one after the other, but for movies with intervals of 6 months does not work the same and feels somewhat out of place.
Still, Akiha ... oops, I meant Rin ... oh wrong again ... Azaka is my second favorite TM character archetype after Fujino/Kohaku/Sakura
Animation, BGM (godly, probably the best this far), Art and VAs were again excellent.
