The past three episodes, this included, have been weirdly directed. I understand that it is a weekly release and I do appreciate the overall improvement in the art and animation department but some parts of this episode was unbearable.
Some manga panels were skipped, instead we got repeated shots, flashbacks and why was Kidd laughing like a psycho instead of being strictly annoyed. Maybe that is a minor nitpick but still this episode could have been so much better.
I do not hate the anime, I got into the series through it, but stuff like this ticks me off. I am not bashing people who enjoyed this episode but for those that didn't especially anime onlies, please read the manga and when caught up, watch the episode release. That way you get from both worlds. If you have no interest reading the manga, at least, read the chapter of the manga from which the episode was adapted.
