I loved this episode. The comedy at the start was so funny. It helped balance the somewhat moody atmosphere that the situation required. But I loved how Onoda's goofiness made everything lighter. Because in his eyes it isn't that serious. So seeing the kind of serious situation play out, but to him it's not that serious. It's such a funny contrast, but also a very good contrast too. Because without it the entire episode would have felt a bit flat. But because we had that contrast, it made it more entertaining which makes it more entertaining to watch.
