I was thinking if it'd be fair to give this ep a three because the new character lowkey annoys me but then it wouldn't be fair for every other aspect.First off, this episode is focused on Mai and gave us more context on who she was. It's also basically connected to their new customer here.Kerrope is stressing me out though. I mean, I get that everything got a price, but can't he just make a price list so that the girls wouldn't be too blindsided? He's a cute frog but he's such a sneaky swindler, honestly.I'm glad though that after finding out about the truth, the girls didn't necessarily vindicated Mai over it. We also saw a bit of Azu's character development, a product of her growth from Ep 3!Back to the new character... she annoyed me so much. Probably because she was getting a bit too insensitive and lowkey entitled for sht... I'm hoping she'd have a pretty neat reason by the next episode, but I'm afraid we'd have to get through some trouble first involving Mai and their whole witch training thing.
Honestly, I am sensing this would be like another typical chronological pattern in highlighting significant narratives. Nonetheless, this episode was still engaging. The pacing was very moderate and the individual charm given to each character was very lovable, specifically Azu's character, as her developing personality is the kind of character development in an anime that would literally touch me. Additionally, the lighthearted humor was showcased seamlessly. Furthermore, the complex dynamic between Mai and Yua effectively brought an emotional weight to the direction of the story.
Most of the scenes in this episode were really entertaining, especially during some of Keroppe's scenes were funny. I also like how the episode focused more on Mai. The last few scenes were really interesting because of the revelation near the end.
