I really do love Aru's group. They are an antagonistic force for this story right now, but they are loveable in their own way. Especially with how Aru wants to be this badass outlaw so badly. Mutsuki is good at pushing her buttons and the whole group just has a nice dynamic together. Too bad for them that this mission just won't work out.
Also like that we got a brief flashback of younger Aru. She clearly wanted to break out of the status quo and this path of being a "hard-boiled outlaw" is what she chose to go down. But life isn't that easy. Hilariously the Abydos girls helped give her hope again . Congrats to Hifumi. Started this day just looking for Peroro goods and ended up as the legendary Faust! A hard boiled leader of the Masked Swimsuit Gang! Honestly that cash might be tracked so taking it might be problematic. I'd be all for taking money away from people that won't use it for anything good...but admittedly they'd only use that money to pay back the loan from someone that would not use that money for anything good anyways. I get trying to keep them from going too far. But considering Aru's group will take that money and probably use it to buy more mercenaries to attack with...doesn't feel like good karma is playing out here.

so hoshino is more than just a lazy girl, she is pretty aware of how things are working on the side and why nobody has helped them.
and haruka just went crazy to make the real villany debut of problem solver 68 but the true villians appear at the end to steal their shine. |

Hina stole the show here .
I did enjoy the Abydos and Problem Solver 68 team-up and how well they did. But I also got a good laugh at how Aru's crew bailed the heck out the moment Hina showed up. They weren't pulling that united front thing in front of her! I mean sure it helped the whole "what Problem Solver 68?" thing, but honestly Hina knew they were there and likely just wanted an excuse to pull back the troops. Not the type that would have gone along with this sort stunt. The team play was good to be sure. Unfortunately Gehenna's biggest advantage was pure numbers and that means nothing in a show like this . The mobs are basically easy to ignore. Which really turned it into a 9 vs 2 fight with Iori and Chinatsu unable to win with that kind of disadvantage. Iori is good, but she's not that good! Says plenty about Hoshino as well that someone with the crazy reputation of Hina considers her extremely noteworthy.
