Well, this episode moved along rather slowly here. I’m going to guess that it’s because there are still many more episodes to go? I mean, there’s not much you can do if Rika actually remembers what happened in the previous arc, right? What kind of conflicts will our protagonists have against Takano? Wouldn’t they just call the cops?

What does Hanyuu having faith in anything have anything to do with anything? What kind of role will she play in the upcoming episodes? I don’t find it likely that she’ll materialize to the natural world like what happens in the opening since I do not really see how that’s going to affect anything.

Given the current time line of the story, I’m guessing that they’re going to explain what really happened to the victims of the supposed “curse”. This should be pretty good and is a good way of advancing the story over simply jumping ahead to the time when Keiichi moved to Hinamizawa.
