This is my favourite episode of the Owl House so far, and that's saying a lot considering episode 5 and 7. I think Amity might be my favourite character, as she's one of the examples of a good reformed antagonist in recent cartoons since her actions were never that bad and she didn't just flip around in one episode, and her relationship with Luz is one I find very interesting. And I loved the two of them getting closer here. The comedy is also top notch in this episode, which is no surprise considering the extra focus on Hooty. On top of that, there was some very nice worldbuilding with Luz's exploration of magic under the tutelage of the ever amazing Eda. A little detail I also found interesting was that Amity and her siblings didn't give Luz a hard time for lying about her spells. They were probably too preoccupied by the giant monster in front of them, and they likely understood. Probably more the latter for Amity and the former for the siblings.
So great characterization, great story, great worldbuilding, great comedy, and overall an absolutely great episode.
