The action take a back seat as we get a more bridge-like episode. The pacing had slowed down and we're introduced to the people that are in Nagoya. Seeing Hibiki here feels like seeing a new person, he's quiet and reserved. Then again, after what happened before, I think anyone would've changed. We see how different the people in Nagoya plan to face the Septentrione untuk Ronaldo's leadership. And the other highlight is of course Yamato's snippet of backstory, which I always love, a side character backstory. With this preparation underway, I can't wait for what's about to come (It's more despair, trust me.)
