The animation looked like it was a guest director or understudy who wanted a go and they said "sure, it's a short series so go nuts." Can't think of what the style is evocative of though.

I thought that it reminded me a bit of that weird short series from a previous season called Ai Mai Mi. Turns out, this episode was indeed helmed by Itsuki Imazaki, the man behind Ai Mai Mi.

Apparently in the manga this is based on, she also smokes, a trait they took out here.

They even took out the jokes based around her smoking, so I assume they wanted her to appear more "normal"?

Hmm? She definitely smokes in the anime, though I think it was shown more during the flashbacks when she was younger. At the very least, her continuing to smoke in the present was referenced several times.
