Ok, what's up with all the fanservice in thus episode? With what the girls found with Megenu's key, it explains everything about the school and why it is so equipped. There is a pandemic going on, but not the same thing the school was made to handle. Looks like more fanservice next week... Not sure why they are taking the show in that direction, but it sells to the otaku, so...
Still, we know the show tends to preview things from something akin to Yuki's prespective, so it's very likely that some weird things might happen during the otherwise stock beach episode. Fanservice will be there, sadly, but we already had it right from the start with the way Rii's breasts bounce during the OP (...yeah).
Exploring characters who are under an awful lot of stress is a good premise, but I feel like the show fails to deliver that in a truly compelling way. We can already see that the girls are slowly being backed into a corner, but they're still managing to keep the status quo of "everything's all right, we'll be safe", which is kind of boring.
Hopefully something happens during the swimsuit episode now that the girls know more about the situation they're in, because I don't think I can stand to watch more generic SoL with just a couple scenes in between to point out how the girls are actually struggling to enjoy themselves amidst the bleak circumstances they're in.
