In this episode we get a picture into the life of a member of the rescue squad. I am not sure I personally buy that venting about training like this in a journal is enough to prevent me from complaining while it is happening, but I guess that is what makes Usato protagonist material. I am looking forward to Usato’s time in the forest hunting a bear. It has been long enough since I last read through this part of the manga that I don’t remember all the details of what happens, but I do remember liking this bit.

Also, I did not remember Inukami thirsting over Usato so much. I mean, I get it, he got a six pack over the course of two weeks, but I thought her reactions were silly in a fun way. It never got in the way of what was going on. And yes, we all saw you peeking Miss Princess.

Edit: Just wanted to add that I really like the OP for this show. It’s not one of my favorites of all time or anything, but definitely better than your average OP and way better than the forgettable ED.
