Honestly, no, it doesn't matter that much to me if it's a huge mystery that the main character doesn't have a stake in. If it's just a couple episodes, fine. An arc, okay. But a series-long mystery that's only viscerally important to supporting cast members? No, not for me.

The fact that some of the Ryusei School kids that show up to visit Mari in the hospital are brand-new is hilarious to me. Where are they coming from? Why did they show up for this, but none of the other tense situations? Is it a roster that they're moving down? Do they have on-days and off-days, and this was the on-day for Mihara and the other three? I don't get that group's structure at all.

It was neat! He's got a good Orphnoch design, and that explosion of petals was a good visual. I guess it just didn't stick in my memory? I like Murakami as a boss, as a negotiator. I'm not super into him as a monster?

Good point!
