I adored the way the script rhymes Kaoru and Kouga's sides of the plot so directly (more of that narrative cohesion I love so much about this show), I thought it built nicely on Kaoru's character on its merits while working great for Kouga more as part of the overall picture it's gradually been painting of his feelings towards his dad. I feel like this might be the sort of episode that's maybe easier to grasp in retrospect, knowing the show's whole story, but I don't know, even without that, it was way up my alley. I feel like the cool horse isn't the only reason this is another one Amemiya felt it was important to direct himself. (The horse probably helped motivate him though. It's a cool horse.)
