I could repeat the same thoughts each week...and probably will. It just isn't very engaging because they gave all the secrets too early. There was a reason to do Takano's background right before the final struggle. It set up the tension nicely and made her motivations clear before it was time to get right to it. Repeating what was done before isn't necessarily the right thing to do. But this shows why doing things the way they did originally worked. Even while getting answers there were questions and reasons to speculate and be engaged.

Honestly I think the Keiichi vs Rena stabbing fest in the first arc covered why this show is happening. Just for the sake of over the top violence and gore. That's why we're dragging through these pointless episodes. The only thing that matters is getting caught up to where they were when this series of flashback arcs began. Satoko pulling the gun on Rika and company. And seeing where things go from there.
