Arriving at the near-midpoint of the 12-episode season, 'Frozen Ground' acts as a critical bridge between the tension-heavy 'Sullen Rain' and the lighter 'Hot Springs of Love' that follows. The episode works to resolve interpersonal friction that built up in prior installments, particularly around Yoshino's introduction and the complications it created for Shido's relationships. By investing in character reconciliation here, the series sets up stronger group dynamics for the back half of the season.
