In Summary:

Most of this episode is devoted to the strange Momoko Touyoko of Tsuruga Academy, who upstages Touka Ryuumonbuchi's short-lived victory over Nodoka at the end of the first half of their round. It appears that Momoko is a stealth master, operating below everyone's radar screens before slowly, efficiently undermining the other players and stealing their points. I did not expect Nodoka's round to be drawn out this long, but it looks like there will be a strange turn of events before Saki takes the main stage, facing off against the cute and demented Koromo.

it's just another girl-girl pairing in a show that is already overflowing with them. It added nothing new or interesting.

You can shake your fist all you want. I think it would have been more interesting to throw the audience a curve, but I know that many are happy just to have their particular preferences catered to again and again.

Besides, what are you complaining about? Aren't you happy with the endless addition of girl-girl pairs? With the likelihood that there may be still more in the future?
