Cute new hairstyle
At first, I was expecting this to be a “everyone teaches Mao math” episode, but it turned out to be far more creative, relevant, and impactful compared to what would otherwise be a generic plot. It makes a lot of sense once you think about it after the fact. And finally, we learn about the first major goal the girls have, and what it takes to make it.
Okay, I’m gonna assume that Ruri has no chance, and neither does Beat, simply because they feel like side characters right now.
But I doubt Meisa won’t make it, so… which one will be left out? Shiori or Ann? Time to take bets.
Q-Pit’s first interaction with Hana after the reveal was kinda meh: I was hoping for something more substantive than that.
The live-action performance at the end was indeed a surprise: the only precedent I can recall was all the way back in the first movie when Soleil did a 3DCG show out in the open in their uniforms.
