The plot moves forward quite a bit from the early episodes to now. I still think using the maid café as an excuse at the beginning of the story was a waste of time, since they could have just gotten straight to the point. That way, we could have seen these tense moments and training scenes right from the start. The episode isn't anything special, but I'm giving it this rating because it actually aligns with the plot—and based on what I've seen so far, that's asking for a lot, lol.
