While I was very happy to see lots of Hina-chan in this episode, I was also rather downcast that Hina’s been firmly put in her place as a Supporting Chara. A strong and charismatic character, no doubt, but definitely Not The Heroine of the series. On the proverbial third hand, Nagi and Hayate see some progress in their relationship but it gets reset. One step forward, half a step back.
