Conclusion
The potential love triangle between Okarun, Momo, and Aira is fascinating. The love triangle isn’t hardly a brand new idea but when achieved appropriately could be a supply of humor and drama.

This love triangle turns into a fearsome combating drive, ultimately. Their not use to combating with one another (as a group) so the rising pains will take time to repair. That mentioned the trio works properly collectively. I’ll say I hated the inexperienced coloration they used for this episode.
