I have much of the same thoughts as you did regarding this episode, my favorite part of it was Daishinji actually going off of what Yuri said about the Sword of Logos and getting Touma's perspective on what he's done, also, it's just nice to see him again after two episodes of mostly Yuri, Touma, and Mei.

However, like you said, the MOTW's victim just doesn't really get much, they have one defining character trait and just don't do much. I'm fine if the MOTW is just some random monster inhabiting someone we don't know, but this show tries to give it a sense of urgency, and it's like, whether or not Touma knew who the Megid was, he'd still try to save the person trapped inside, but the show feels the need to give him an interaction with that character as motivation.

It's not that big of a deal, but going from Zero-One where the MOTW would basically be the focus of every episode, and the Humagear becoming it usually having a flaw of some sort, such as the sushi Humagear not making sushi to a high enough quality in its owner's eyes. It's minor stuff but it builds character, and the show wants to get us attached to these characters but won't give us enough screen time or any motivation for us to feel for these characters. It's not that big of a deal, I just don't really care about any of these people stuck within a Megid.

Besides that, it's a perfectly fine episode, and besides Shingo's lackluster development, I quite liked it.

(Also, yay for the Donbros reference in the story.)
