Putting aside the animation quality (or lack thereof), I thoroughly enjoyed this anime from start to finish.
I recognised a lot of the things shown, especially in this episode, that I've experienced in my own life with me as well as people I know. I was worried about the representation when I first started the show but it completely blew away all my expectations. The author clearly knows what they're doing.
Makoto is really strong. Self-confidence is hard but he really nailed it. How greedy, which is very fitting lol (the op has been given the honour of being in some of my special playlists).
I see a fan translation on Mangadex and an official English version on Webtoon. I'm gonna go with the fan translation because it's further ahead and the scanlators have a really good track record.
The chibi "animation" be looking extra cheap this episode.
Good end to the season, but clearly leaves things open for, I assume, the final movie.
Not sure I believe Makoto's mother having some sort of trauma reaction to her son because her father wore femine clothes.
Yeah I know, but all we saw was Makoto's mother calling her father disgusting and that seems to be the root cause of why she thinks that way. We didn't see her get bullied or whatever.
