I'm in love with the fact that we have an entire episode dedicate to Junpei's internal conflict that ranges from superficial to deep. It's so refreshing take to have Junpei act like a shallow high schooler to have room for his growth and for Luou to shine as someone who doesn't take back down from bullying. Junpei becomes a character that needs to redeemed himself instead of a character who becomes a hero. For a story in a high school setting, it is very apt.
