Like, Fuwa has been shown to be willing to work with him, he should have just gotten Fuwa on board for the rest of this after the first failed attempt!
Yeah, like... I had
some
fun with this episode. Everything up to the first Metal Cluster Hopper scene was delightful. (It is apparently very easy to barge into the private office of a CEO and get him to find you a husband?) But the mounting frustrations of both the Ebii and Aruto plots just wore me down by the end.

Match was great, front to back. Very fun Humagear!

(Even if you argue that destroying/injuring a Humagear wouldn't count as assault, Match belongs to some company, that at least counts destruction of private property!)
I don't love Ebii potentially ending up with her jealous and possessive friend, but I'm reminded of a joke me and some friends have when we see a particularly toxic couple: At least they're only ruining
one
relationship. This horrifying outcome is maybe best for the world at large!

I get it! It feels almost churlish to look at an episode this devoted to comedy and go But Character Logic, for sure. But lowering standards is a weird admission of failure, like we no longer expect the show to do more than one tone correctly. This show has executed so many difficult stories correctly that I think it's okay to call it out when it gets a little sloppy.
