The chair made ventilator noises while the old dude was using regular oxygen was slightly distracting. Almost as much as Kenobi series not matching his ventilator noises with his actual chest rise.
It was fake, so maybe that was actually a nice touch? The majority of LycoReco aren't going to notice. None of them are medical experts.

Shinji is a real fucking monster. He had his assistant (same earrings from episode 1 so you can visually see all the places she is) hire an assassin, kidnap a random man, and then use him as a remote toy in order to tempt Chisato into murdering someone. He desperately intends for her to be the world's greatest assassin or something. But she took the exact opposite lesson from them saving her, much to his astonishment. He's got a real twisted personality. I kind of expected the other guys to kidnap and torture the low-level DA Lycoris they lured into a trap, but I guess their plan is to just hunt them.

Silent Jin ended up being a fairly ethical assassin. I like those kinds of nuanced takes. He didn't kill Mizuki when he easily could have, and was generally aiming for Takina's legs as well. Mika and Jin had a remarkably pleasant discussion considering he had just attempted to kill Mika's proteges. He's not some noble assassin, just a very professional one.

It's also very neat that they gave Chisato a pulseless artificial heart (they're real things for those that don't know), and I'm guessing she was shot through the chest during the tower incident.
