I don't know what to make out of this. The episode is once again rather boring, with the two dimensional (but cute) characters constantly getting annoyed by the purple one. on the other hand, her backstory could be promising, but could also make for an incredibly frustrating next episode. I don't think these writers will successfully pull of an emotional episode.

I do really like the idea and the setting, but the show doesn't really make all that much out of it for me. The songs aren't that great, and I don't know if I'm in for some dumb teeny drama. Might drop this, but also might give this another ep. The ratting is currently sitting between an ok (6/10) and a Meh (5/10) for me.

I'm watching the subtitled version and don't speak Japanese, but I get the sense that the rapid-fire dialogue may be serving some fun comedic timing that doesn't translate via subtitles. The first episode had a frenetic energy that seemed to jive with that kind of tone.

But this second episode, oof. The charm wore off fast, and the entire purpose seemed to just be a dumping ground for Azu to treat everyone like a gigantic turd while the entire cast absorbed it and never reacted. That's a lot of lost opportunities for character moments.

I will give the show at least one more episode purely to see where they're going with this Azu plot twist.
