Alright, this episode wasn't as annoying in its transitions as last episode, but they still felt disruptive. There were some that the scene would cut away to a spinning face transition only to come right back to the same scene. It just breaks up the flow of things and feels out of place. I get that this is adapting a 4-koma, but you don't need to intrusively mark the transition between pages like that, just string them along into a cohesive plot. It has been done before well (Tomo-chan and Bocchi the Rock are both 4-komas), but it feels jarring here.

In any case, Grind seems like a nice guy. I wish him the best of luck in his endeavors to stay the hell away from Alyssa and avoid Viola's wrath. Ganbare Grind!

I'm glad this one has settled down a bit as far as being fanservice-y towards Viola. I kind of appreciated him pointing out "Hey man, she's 16 so keep it chill" and them sticking to it. The aunties and their familiars are plenty as far as that goes.

Fun story today with new "friends" being introduced.
