tbh ep3 came off to me as "why aren't you OKAY with being shoved into skimpy battle lingerie against your will?" and ryouko being forced to swallow that in order to form a partnership and be "willing" to be forcibly sexualized... ehhh. the implications didn't do it for me. not sure if her being cornered into consenting is better or worse than her being forced and uncomfortable with everything. she's still lacking agency so ymmv
