[Spoilers]
I like how the exposition was handled in this update, with Howl getting to see and experience the city himself, which also allowed us to see more of his personality. Getting to meet Ross was great as well, being able to see just how charming he is, flaws and all. I think the biggest surprise for me this update was that the landlord wasn't actually a robber or something, I was actually preparing myself for a bad ending, lol.
All in all, it was a lot of fun, I do hope we'll get to meet some of the people Howl refers to when thinking to himself though, since it's a little bit disorienting to hear about a bunch of stuff a MC is well aware of, without getting to see it or experience it in any way, or at least not yet.
Other than that... Howl and Ross sure are thick, so that's also very much appreciated, ohh and the smooches too 🥺
