I’m watching the subtitled version and don’t speak Japanese, but I get the sense that the rapid-fire dialogue may be serving some fun comedic timing that doesn’t translate via subtitles. The first episode had a frenetic energy that seemed to jive with that kind of tone.
But this second episode, oof. The charm wore off fast, and the entire purpose seemed to just be a dumping ground for Azu to treat everyone like a gigantic turd while the entire cast absorbed it and never reacted. That’s a lot of lost opportunities for character moments.
I will give the show at least one more episode purely to see where they’re going with this Azu plot twist.
