The women in this show have no hope of being well thought out and complete characters following this episode, I'm convinced. Kuina is yet another female character in this show who exists for the male gaze, though she is my favourite from what we've seen (not by much, but still). Regardless, the rest of the episode was rather all right; there was Kuina's fight, pretty boy's fight (I refuse to believe he's gonna stay the way he is, he seems too relevant), a little bit of Jin fighting. and general debriefing with the rest of the characters. Overall, everything was rather separated this episode, but our Momotaro characters are very clearly up to something, and I'm curious to see just what the deal with the coffin is.

Kuina Sazanami’s skill is literally called “I Love” and honestly… same. She’s too chaotic and awesome to not stan 😂

Episode Context

Episode 7 shifts the battlefield inward as the Kyoto Branch finds itself under siege, creating a claustrophobic pressure cooker that never lets up. The tone is urgent and oppressive, expect tight corridors, snap decisions, and the suffocating weight of being trapped in your own stronghold. Kyoya Oiranzaka and Kuina Sazanami step forward in major ways, with the episode leveraging their leadership styles and combat abilities to drive the action. Pacing runs hot, alternating between kinetic fight sequences and quieter beats where characters reckon with trust and the cost of responsibility. Studio Hibari leans into the siege mentality effectively, making the confined setting feel genuinely threatening. This is an escalation episode that rewards investment in the ensemble cast and thrives on tension rather than spectacle alone.
