I really loved the backstory given to Muichiro and his experiences growing up without parents and his angry brother. I thought that this was super ineteresting and explained why it is he acts so cold and callous.
As well, seeing how quickly he dispatched Gyokko is a further fucking awesome illustration to the strength of the Pillars.
I will say that I admittedly did not love the portrayal of Mitsuri the Love hashira. She clearly has a ton of really cool attributes but she is immediately portrayed as a ditsy woman, which is unfortunately a trope in a good amount of manga that I have read. It just gets old!
