What an absolute gem, this episode. I'm surprised I completely forgot this episode (then again, its been 9 years since I watched the show).
The girl was sacrificed by one family, only to be adopted by a new family. I love how she said that she now wanted to live independently at the village by the sea. A'int that the dream, sister. A'int that the dream.

And my brother Ginko was so on his feet in this episode. He knew he was racing against time and really wanted to save this girl. I love how they brought up the first episode and the story to show the change in Ginko's thought process and approach to this problem. Wonderful writing. The music, art, sound, everything...oh my God. I love this show so much.

Adashino and Ginko interactions are such a treat. More to come in future episodes and I'm looking forward to experiencing that again.

10/5
"...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth')

so beautiful how the girl found out the problem in her reflection. The power of the eyes and the eye-contact between spirit world and the mortal one. So peaceful the sound and music. This anime is magic

Beautiful sfx and music. I do hope we get to learn more about Ginko, I'm glad he got to save Io. A living swamp is pretty cool, leaving its children.

Either the episode had its moments that were confusing or I'm stupid, but since the comments are about my opinion, it was an episode I didn't like. I wasn't captivated by what was presented regarding the girl in the lake, but I understand and admire Ginko's concern for her. He didn't want the girl to have the same end as Shinra's grandmother (a character introduced in the first episode), where she would stop being human.

The first two episodes were fantastic, something out of this world. Meanwhile, the third one was good, but not like the previous two. The fourth and fifth ones have declined significantly.
