Stretch:
One minute Tanikaze is a hero after having saved Sidonia, the next something has gone disastrously wrong and everyone is angry at him--but we have little idea what has happened. Memory loss is usually a cheap stunt in anime, but here I was genuinely intrigued. And weird stuff is clearly going on behind the scenes--like the skull-like beings/devices/whatever that advise (or issue orders to?) the masked woman who seems to be in command (she takes off her mask in this episode). My only complaint is that the revelation of Tanikaze having extraordinary recuperative abilities seemed to come out of nowhere when there have been numerous opportunities to drop hints--like the time his nose was broken after stumbling into the women's quarters. Having enjoyed this show as much as I have, I am confident that everything will come together in a thrilling and perfectly plausible manner at some point.
