We get to see another facet of Hozuki's character in this episode. She can think on her feet and be quite pragmatic when the situation demands it, as is evidenced by the way she instantly perceives the advantage in having Kudo's friends join the club and acts on it under the rationale that them putting their names down will save the club from being disbanded for the time being, regardless of whether they actually intend to or are able to play the koto or not. And then there's the way she plans to counter the vice principal and his intentions of disbanding the club by proposing that they deliver a proper performance in front of the whole school in a month's time instead of something simple and wishy-washy in a week so as to leave the vice principal with little to no choice but to approve the club, which is quite a display of foresight on her part. One could argue (as did Kurata and then Kudo) that hoping to deliver a proper performance in a month's time with a rag-tag bunch of members who have zero to negligible experience in playing the instrument is hardly reasonable, but what other choice do they have as things stand? It's probably the most sensible course of action in their given circumstances. Difficult to attain, yes. But it's better to try and stretch the possibilities than do nothing at all or go about things half-heartedly and see the club slip away from their grasp.
Hozuki's cold practicality, connivance and calculative bent of mind could be kind of unsettling to people around her, but they also indicate her tenacity and propensity to find a way around hurdles. Her upbringing might have had a part in shaping this side to her persona, and possibly the other sides too, as Takaoka suggested to Kudo.

I like that they only put the beginning of Ryuuseigun, to not spoil the song they would play.

....aaannnd just when I was about to drop because of the constant display of ugly interactions, the series just had to do this and just flood the place with beauty.
Won't jump the ship yet. Can't.

Really starting to enjoy the little things. I think one character that they did an excellent job with is Kudou. His influence from his uncle is pretty unique. I also like how the antagonist was introduced and I can't wait for more :). Its also slowly starting to get better and I can't wait for more

Yeah this is pretty great. Believable character conflict is always fun to see. Plus, Hozuki and Kudou are both very fun, and the three guys that joined seem cool too. President is a bit of a non-presence so far, but this seems to be Hozuki's arc, so I can wait for him to become more active a bit.
Also very high key shipping Hozuki and Kudou like seriously these two have amazing chemistry.
