As I had said in my review on the previous episode, it seemed that this anime will take the plot into a more slice-of-life route. Not that it's bad, but I do understand if some people dislike this because of what it has shown us in the beginning. But even so, I do like the author kept Monica slowly developing, even with this plot change, it was really palpable during the tea scene, which was nice seeing her finally out with the word 'friend'. This episode is enjoyable, calm and very laid back.
