What was up with grandma dragging young Cocona to the hospital for extensive probing? Up until now, I wasn't really getting the same creepy vibes from her as some other people in this thread, but this episode certainly put her in the "probably kinda evil" camp.

Also, they out sent at least half a dozen people to look for her when she was hiding with Yayaka, which doesn't seem like the sort of thing they'd do for a regular girl with a history of normal (non-amorphous-related) illness. And these weren't worried nurses either, these were grim-looking men in lab coats.

I wonder if the hospital (and by extension, granny) are working with the clansmen, or against them (and with Salt, perhaps?). On the one hand, they seemed genuinely distraught when Yayaka whisked her away, and given that she's an agent for the clansmen, this would indicate that they weren't in cahoots. On the other hand, granny asking Cocona if she made a new friend kinda smells like her checking if Yayaka's mission as a success.

I loved that in the ending montage, the twins are finally able to throw different shapes in rock-paper-scissors, that was a nice callback.

I did not love that the twins were barely even in the last three or four episodes, and that even when they were, they were mostly just staring at things in the distance and going, "Huh, things sure are happening over there". Same with Nyunyu and painting girl really, this show did not do a great job of wrapping up the stories of its side characters.

i hope the dub is not embarrassing.

I hope the dub goes out of its way to establish that all characters in the show are straight as an arrow.
