The opening sequence of this episode was such a huge moment for Miyo. It is hard to imagine the Miyo from the beginning of this show inserting herself into the conversation of those random jerks. It's great to see her go out of her way, calling out to them, to stand up for her friend. Honestly, I know I mentioned this in the previous episode's thread, but this sexism in a supernatural setting like this feels so, so dumb. But, I guess some things never change.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Kiyoka and Miyo in the middle of the episode was nice, but really should have happened a while ago. We might have seen an example of Miyo's growth earlier in the episode, but she is still extremely deferential when it comes to Kiyoka. She doesn't even feel like she has the right to ask him any questions about himself. Hopefully we can get some progress on this front too. Meanwhile, the background art in this show continues to be stellar. @rikka@ani.social
I think we all know that these guards are not going to be able to save Miyo from this guy at the end. It's time for Miyo to become a damsel in distress for Kiyoka to save. It happened last season, so why not again? That is how great stories are written, doing the same thing over and over, right? I hope I'm wrong and that the show surprises me.
