Except for the fact that this time, they didn't actually animate most of them. A part that's really striking is the entire stretch where they're wearing the yukatas (While buying them, at the Obon, and the fireworks in the park), the girls only have a few scenes where they're moving around and the range of motion is much more limited when compared to the previous episode. Hell, just skipping around on the video there are several parts of the episode where there's almost no motion at all, sometimes for up to 5 seconds. I think that's one of the reasons they like doing all the "Bored" reaction shots of Nagato, because the audience can accept the lack of movement as a part of her character.
