This episode was pure win. Despite his initial arrogant and cocky personality, Yukiatsu redeemed himself by being the "saviour" to Anjou potentially getting date raped, as well as recognizing and accepting himself as flawed.

The whole "relationship/confession" talk at the train scene was handled with finesse. None of this "I had a crush on you for ages so please go out with me" nonsense that anime tends to overuse, but a straight "Hey, I'm not perfect and need some moral support and you are the same, so do you want to go out", which actually happens quite commonly in real life, followed by a straight denial and rejection as Yukiatsu read Anjou very well. I personally really liked the depth in it.
