EPISODE REVIEWS
Things are starting to heat up, and heat up do they. We get introduced formally to two Momotaro agents(?), as well as a head supporter of the Oni who helps primarily with healing (I can't for the life of me remember the formal titles they gave for all these people, sue me). The most prominent/interesting of the new characters is Tsubakiri, whose abilities are rather crazy with a twist coming at the end that sets up well for next episode. We also have the introduction of Mei and, even though she seems kind of pointless right now, there must be a reason she's been introduced, so I'm looking forward to seeing how all these various things unfold.
The scene gives real weight to the stakes of this world and shows just how cruel it can be. It’s a must-watch moment because it shapes Mei’s character and reminds us that survival here comes at a devastating cost :((
