I’m just gonna ignore the shut-up-and-calm-down kiss because I’m familiar with old shoujo antics and say that it was nice to see Yuri grow some spine. Too bad an awakening from the shock of being sent to the foreign lands of very distant past had to happen through Tito’s brutal death. Poor kid.

I don’t feel like committing to 28 volumes of the manga to see how Yuri’s adventure unfolds, so I’ll be following the anime. Guess it passed a 3-episode rule for me. At times it’s so ridiculous it amuses me greatly.
