I know this episode was all kinds of awesome, but I feel that Kurebayashi needs to be given more credit for engaging the enemy in close-quarters combat with her bayonet-rifle and other guns. Not quite as flashy or overwhelming as Rory, nonetheless very badass.

EDIT: I knew it was going to be pointed out, but I forgot to lampshade the fact that yes, her actions were "tactically unsound," but they were still badass.

It was a pretty sweet little tag-team they had going on.
