It is perhaps this factor that let me to be a little more disappointed with episode seventeen, as it seems to get mired down a little in an instalment where not a great deal happens in all honesty. We do find out a number of important things, such as just who the odd pairing who have been following Byakki around are, and also what Byakki's modus operandi is, but a lot of this is covered in reasonably short order, leaving us with an episode largely around Tooru being chased around and bumping into Mubyou (or rather, her look-alike assistant) and poor old Sakura, who always seems to get dragged into these things.
Thus, there isn't a great deal to say about this episode - It pulls together most of the major characters from the series so far (albeit in a slightly clumsy way) but mainly seems to be a warm-up act for the episodes to follow where doubtless things will get more heated. This isn't a bad move in itself, so I can forgive it for being meticulous in its build-up, but unfortunately it didn't make for the most entertaining of episodes in the process.
