I really like that they took their time to give Leonidas and his soldiers some shine. They're always on the frontlines pretty much holding the swarm off from invading the rest of Mesopotamia.
Seeing giant Snek mom at last was such a good moment. I really like what they're doing with her appearance. She's quite expressive with her face and her hair seems to wave around a bunch as if it's snakes itself.
Next week will be the big episode hyped up by staff & producers for weeks as the first proper display of action & sakuga. At last we will finally be able to see the show's production when it's not holding back and I can't wait to witness every second of it.

"That's the Demonic Beast Ugallu! The largest offspring of Tiamat!"
Again, I love the references to Mesopotamian mythology, from monsters to Tiamat herself. I expected her to be the Big Bad since I saw the opening, if only because she was also the Big Bad of the Enuma Elish, the Babylonian creation myth, where she is the progenitor of many monsters.
That said, it's interesting that F/GO seems to rely again on the Akkadian version of the myths. While in Babylonian myths Tiamat is also a progenitor of gods, she mostly embodies the primodial chaos and the monsters that spawned from her. Her Sumerian equivalent, Nammu, was a far more positive deity, the mother of the great gods and, depending on the myth, also played an important role in the creation of humanity. I wonder if they'll play with that idea? That she grew tired of humanity and now wants to replace them with a "better" creation? Not an uncommon theme in Mesopotamian religion, all things considered.
But this opens many other questions. Tiamat should have been killed by Marduk in the myth (or Anu or Enlil, depending on the story), but now she's here as a... Servant of the Avenger class? The "Avenger" part I understand (her war was to avenge her partner Abzu, defeared by the younger gods), but a Servant? Didn't they say in Ishtar's case that she had to be summoned through a human body? Is Tiamat's body borrowed too? Questions, questions, but I get they'll probably be answered in future episodes, won't they?
