Upcoming reveal of the wolf in sheep's clothing.

I might be expressing a hot take, but I find Rakia changing his mind about not caring for humans earlier rather abrupt. Even though he has consistently had flashbacks of Comel in various situations. I don’t quite understand the difference between Shoma's attempts to appeal to him and those of Sachika and Koji, as Rakia seems to accept the gestures from the latter two but rejects Shoma’s. When Shoma talks about the joy of eating or human happiness, Rakia dismisses him. In contrast, when Sachika expresses a desire for everyone to be happy and Koji offers Rakia human food, he is more receptive.

Otherwise, it does happen here that Sachika reveals her motivation to Rakia, wanting everyone, including Rakia, to be happy. I wish Rakia would connect this to the Granute part-timers’ work, which also aims to make humans happy, likely questioning about making people happy simply for its own sake, rather than for ulterior motives, like the part-timers, or likely have the show highlight how this reminds him about what Comel believes in (not about his fate). I feel it's something that is difficult to understand, even for normal humans, and Rakia's a fish out of water that doesn't understand them as he said.

Koji's problem is an MOTW-related stuff yet mundane, where someone's account can be hacked for criminal activities, such as scamming money from devoted fans. It's fortunate that Koji's channel hasn’t faced significant backlash, despite the unsettling situation where he invited fans who subsequently went missing. If this matter is addressed, Sachika might need to continue helping Koji clear his name, just as she did with Shoma.

I found Rakia surprisingly rational when dealing with Le Beet, which is great to have him point out that Comel wasn't a coward, but just a sweet kid. I'm tired of the idea that goodness equates to cowardice, a perspective also held by Shiro regarding Shinji and Tezuka's refusal to fight. It’s not just villains who hold this view; it’s shared by some others as well for real life. Rakia is also rational enough to try to dig into Le Beet's difference with Comel about working for the Stomach, ultimately considering him a lost cause due to his prideful allegiance.

I think Shoma should've answered with how Hanto needs some time alone when Sachika asks if he has called him. I'm uncertain about the direction of Hanto distancing himself from the others, seemingly expressing resentment toward Shoma by continuing to use Chocold, which is a reckless decision. As usual, Gavv resolves things quickly, leading Hanto to discover that the Bitter Gavv clones are produced by Suga to serve him in the end.

Read the wall of texts about the links in my signature, they'd be an actual quality, I guess. Though in general I do support in-depth takes of something, which'd include long essays, unless it's about spite and deliberate hate on something.

He must've asked for help from a smart guy like Nyelve, as we can see here that he's clearly not above asking for help from agents and he has the audacity to expect the same reward. Despite his zealous loyalty to Stomach, he seems like the kind of person even Stomach dislike. Shows that there really are bad common Granutes who aren't just brainwashed by drugs.

This was my post already in the last week's episode "Granute Le Beet illustrates that the part-timer Granutes aren't necessarily coerced into evil by Stomach Inc.; rather, they are proud to work for them and view Comel as a coward." though I guess as a native English speaker you convey that better here in the last sentence. I'm fed up about the common view of only blaming the "true villain" of the story and have everyone's blame deflected on them or think they aren't really bad. And he's not even the worst one among the part-timers I think; so far all the part timers are bad common Granutes, tbh, like Yard.

Just like what Rakia always says:
