Coming off the more event-driven school camping trip of Episode 4, this episode pulls the focus back indoors and into the academic setting that defines Hiyori's daily struggles. At the midpoint of the 12-episode run, it functions as a connective tissue episode, reinforcing the bonds between Hiyori and her students before the second half likely escalates the personal and romantic stakes. It is not filler, but it does serve a measured, grounding role in the season's overall rhythm.
