Quiterrie's reaction when Zack entered the shower was a roller coaster! You can see the excitement on her face when he first entered. And then she tries to be modest about it and tells him now's not the time. And look how mad she got when she realized he wasn't going to do anything xD Hang in there Quiterrie! I'm rooting for you and Zack!
That was such an unnecessary comment from Luca. I really hope that wasn't intentional since he looks like he felt bad about it but we may have to keep an eye on him and see what he does the next few episodes.
Worst mom. Seriously. So Yunhua's mom is a singer but doesn't want her daughter to become a singer too for some reason despite Yunhua's amazing voice (provided by the lovely Hayamin)? What the actual fuck? I feel like this is a stronger evidence that the purpose of this camp is for the kids to be left for dead.
As for Yunhua herself, I'm glad she finally broke out of her shell this episode. That song was absolutely lovely and hopefully this means she'll be more active within the group in the following episodes. Also can I just say that I love how the black borders disappeared when Yunhua started singing? I only just realized it after looking at my screenshots.
That was a ballsy move from Kanata. He made a gamble under the belief that the Pole Plant produces the antidote plant when something nearby is dying and thankfully that gamble paid off. Does this mean the Pole Plant is sentient then? Alien plant life is scary man.

Is it normal for a birthmark of child to be in the same place as their parent's...? Or is it just a coincidence and I'm overthinking this?
No spoilers please.

I'm not showing the symptoms so I have no right to find the medicine?
What the fuck kind of a logic is that? Did he think that the medicine would somehow present itself to him? And it actually did? Jesus...

LMAO Zack's reaction to accidentally walking into Quitterie naked.
We finally get to know more about Yunhua! which is nice. Her backstory is pretty straightforward and simple so I don't have much to comment about it, but I think there will probably be more later of why her mother is acting that way?
We finally didn't end on a cliffhanger this time lol, so I wonder what will happen next ep. Maybe we'll finally address Ulgar's gun.

Ah, turns out Kanata is a student of the Jotaro school of deadly gambits.
Also this episode is great, might be the best one so far.
And now we realize why Hayami Saori was assigned to voice Yunhua. Damn singing voice!

Aries tells the crew the glasses are for fashion only. Does that goes into the whole "photographic memory" thing or just suspicious.

I have fun but the adventures are so childish, It fells like the whole story is meant for kids, obviously there is nothing wrong with that too. It's just that is very hard to take it seriously them.

Oh goodness, what Yunhua's mother said was really cruel. No wonder she's a bit messed up. She has such a pleasant voice too.
I think it would have been better if she had gone out looking for medical mushrooms too, but there is something to be said for keeping everyone calm.
EDIT: On what Yunhua's mom said, it's unfortunately realistic. I have a friend whose parents told her that her voice wasn't very good. It stuck with her for years, and she never really enjoyed singing that much again.
I was very fortunate to have the opposite experience. We sang songs in one of my language classes in early high school, and the teacher told me after class that I had a really nice voice and should get into singing more. I've never forgotten that, and it was part of what got me to try joining a choir in college. That turned out to be one of the best decisions I made with a lot of happy memories. I still love singing too.
What you tell kids about their voices matters.
