This whole episode is mostly delightful banter but it's also told from Holo's perspective, which is quite rare for the series and provides a lot of insight into her character.
The setting is tied to the concluded events of the first season while the themes foreshadow the second one, making this a perfect transitionary episode. Seeing how torn Holo is between her current happiness and her fear of the future is especially valuable for appreciating the series as a whole.
All of which is to say: don't skip this.

A very nice and calm interlude. A nice filler episode and beginning to the next season.

Not a required episode, but it's a rather sweet episode. You get to see a little bit more of the romantic side of the anime rather than a blend of the story told and the development of the relationships.
