Better episode this week in my opinion. We didn't make the story too complicated and instead just focused on Elsa and her experiencing Sasaki's world. Turns out that Elsa snuck into the crates because she thought Sasaki had taken Marc himself. If that were the case, then I am not sure what she was hoping to accomplish by sneaking into the crates being given to the villain, but kid-logic I guess.

Something I don't get is Futari. Why did she suddenly attack Elsa after patiently waiting for so long? Then, I guess she wanted to try out the curse by doing it again? I don't really understand her character that much. Why was she so interested in Sasaki to begin with really? He didn't do anything too exceptional in their first meeting that I remember, but she is seemingly willing to kill her old allies in order to stay by Sasaki's side. Maybe we will figure out more as we go.

One other thing I am a bit surprised by is how little Sasaki's neighbor girl has factored into the story. She is smack dab in the center of the poster promo art and features fairly prominently in the OP. However, she has hardly shown up at all. Even if my theory that she is actually the magical girl that fought with Sasaki previously, she still hasn't shown up that much. I am expecting we will see more of her before the season is over.
