Akutsu and Amane begin treating love as a challenge, each trying to make the other fall first (felt like I’ve heard that before). They continue to show their rom-com energy, a good episode for a slow and natural build in their relationship.

Lily Amane’s avatar coming out and showing its true nature was really interesting and done well. There were some genuinely funny moments too. Akutsu slowly understanding her feelings added emotion. Overall, a really good episode, the anime is doing great.

Really good episode. Amane feelings and emotions towards Akutsu were clearly visible. She wanted him to take care of her. The Avatar acting as Amane's older sister was great to watch.

Episode Context

Sitting at the three-quarter mark of a 12-episode season, Episode 9 escalates the interpersonal complexity after Episode 8's misunderstanding-driven comedy by introducing Lilia as a wildcard in Akutsu and Lily's dynamic. This new arrival directly sets the stage for Episode 10, 'The False Foolish Angel and Demon,' where the series appears ready to dig into questions about Lilia's true nature and motivations as the show enters its final stretch.
