[ElConvoy]

This episode was kind of a mixed bag for me. The battle at the end was superb as always. I always like when fights take place at night and this one is no different. I also love how this show gets across how massive the scale of these battles are. Something thats always missing from Sentai and Riders giant battles.
I also liked that we got our first runner introduced in the show. Really intrigued to find out whats up with the shrieking women.

And now the part or parts I really disliked. First of all the acting of that Tachibana Lady is terrible and I mean really terrible and second I dont like the subplot Asuna got in this episode. Especially since I dont know how I´m supposed to read it. The way it is presented is that because she was good at Kendo a boy she liked wouldnt go out with her so she decided to be super girly to get boys to date her...which is an awful message for girls.
On the other side I could see the show trying to make the case that you can be tough and still want to embrace your really feminine side which is completely fine. But like I said the way it was handled in the episode presents the whole thing more like the first scenario. I hope the show picks up on that again since how it stand now I think this was a terrible move on the shows part.
