This was really bad. Not only was it filled with recap and slow panning camera angles that absolutely ruined the pacing to the point where I could skim the episode and finish a 23 minute episode in 5 -- because of the panning shots trying to build atmosphere but were really just stalling for time -- but it also had the MC become the typical shoujo girl. We're led to believe she's at least a half decent-good assassin in the 1st episode, and then here she's suddenly really dumb and gets in trouble just so moe dude could save her? I know it's a shoujo, but they didn't even try to hide the blatant self-inserting this episode.
It was alright in the first episode, but this episode was horrid and definitely drop tier. It doesn't want to tell a compelling action-mystery story, it just wants to have the allusion of being one whilst having the MC act like every other generic shoujo girl when it's convenient for the plot.
