Like what everyone's saying, this episode has a calm before the storm type of vibe. Despite the Christmas season and overall positive atmosphere with the characters in the episode (save for probably Lise), the air is heavy at the same time. That's because the girls know what waits for them after they complete their mission. Seeing the girls reconnect with their friends and family was wholesome, but also feels hollow. Having that lighthearted and somber tone was intertwined really well in this episode. For that reason, I really loved this episode, despite the slow pacing and no fight scenes.
The calm before the storm episodes usually don't do much for me, but this one absolutely nailed it. Watching everyone spend time with the people who matter to them made everything feel so... real. You can practically feel the anxiety hanging over the whole episode because everyone knows what's coming.
Very cute episode, definitely a calm before the storm type of thing. Everyone got to somewhat close their arcs before the big finale.
