I kind of like this episode for some reason. Maybe because it has the right amount of comedy and mystery in the same episode. I just realise that some of my favourite D.Gray-man episodes are the ones that involve a good amout of comedic scenes and this one is not an exception.

However, these improvements are usually better achieved in small scale so that it actually adds to the manga as opposed to changing it completely. At any rate, I'm surprised that the animators manage to stretch the arc this far. I thought two episodes would have been enough to cover the entire story.
