Another prime example of an uninspired anime original.
Every episode they waste on fillers like this means less coverage for the main plot, which means more rushing later.
I guess this was never an adaptation to begin with, but a "novel inspired animation" instead. It's obvious the staff doesn't give a crap about the novel, and only includes critical events from the novel to keep things from going completely off track.

They could've easily used novel events from volume 5 and 6 if they wanted to put something between Wale's ending (vol.4) and the war (latter vol.6), such as the story about how Kirche and Tabitha first met, and the holiday in Tristania event with Saito and Henrietta (although it seems they're going to do that next week, judging from the ponytail Henrietta in the preview). It's true that some of the events are unsuited for the anime (dialogue only events, for example), but I can't understand why they would choose to make mediocre anime original episodes when they could've easily picked something relevent from the novel instead.
And Siesta is still a bitch.

~Ladies, if a guy ever tells you, he wants to cover you from head to toe in honey, and lick it all off inch by inch, that's the man who hasn't done it before. You start at her toes, and before you get to anything interesting, she is asleep and you are in diabetic coma ~
