| man id be mad too if my son spent our food money on some flower broach |
| I was mad about Ibuki fucking things up, but his family didn't really appreciate him, so I get it ;/ It's a shame. Looks like he stole that flower figurine for his mom, but she didn't care for it, which was sad :( Glad he sailed away. |
| windy episode .-. |
 |
| The narrative traces in a certain sense the same steps seen in the previous episode, but despite having more than one common denominator, the episoid, the final goal reached in history and the teachings conveyed that derive from it are different. Overall it's another good episode, which deserves top marks. |

Acropyre said: well said, that guy luckily survived.I'm a few day behind but man, this episode is truly remarkable. The episode explained how people changed when entrusted with power. For worse or for better. Only them can make the choices of which path they want to follow. Good stuff good stuff |
| Good episode, Ibuki was an interesting fellow. Although I don't think trying to kill his mother was a good idea, I still understand when he came from. His stepmother was a shitty person, she didn't even cared if he was safe or not, only that his ship sinked and therefore wouldn't bring money to the house. There's also the fact that when he gave her the present she treated it like trash and asked him to change it for money. No wonder he didn't liked her, would you like someone who only treats you as a bank? I'm glad that in the end he left his family on their own, sad for the little kids, but both his father and his stepmother didn't deserved a single cent from him. |

| God what a happy but also sad episode. I love these kinda episode because they always have some weird lesson behind them. The guy had an ability that was incredibly rare and powerful that no one else had, yet he didn't understand the full potential of what he could do and took it very much for granted. He didn't take the warnings seriously, letting the excitement and happiness he was in take over and that was his downfall that toppled his life that was on a one way trip to success. I wish they kinda explained what was up with his family a bit more, but from what i could gather maybe he wanted to build better relations with his step-mom but she often neglected it? Or that family actually adopted him and aren't his real parents? Anyway his "farewell" i guess had a really strong impact in my opinion, that he tried to make his own life as a sailor to maybe make his parents proud but in the end they just still neglected and looked down on him. Ahhh i guess you could say this episode was like a "With great power comes great responsibility" or something like that i guess |
| good episode, didn't like that kid being such an ass to his parents though |
 |
| Very likable episode, the mushi themselves seemed to have been very big trouble but Ginko as always managed to solve it |
| Mushi did nothing wrong, lol |
| Kid is a bit angry due to unappreciation he received but I think trying to kill them is a bit too mean |
| Although Ginko already lead the snake mushi to their home, I guess that kid just want to have a revenge on those snake mushi by calling them again only to be eaten by the Torikaze since those snake mushi causes disaster on him. |

| Sorry, I just suddenly thought... maybe for people who can't see the mushi, when they saw Ginko whistling through the rock to get the mushi out of the house it must have looked a little "weird" and... funny. Because in the middle of the quiet atmosphere (and worried because the wife/mother was sick) they could only be silent while watching Ginko whistle through the rock. I really liked the moment where the Torikaze started flying and storming Ibuki's house. Ibuki saved his mother, but at the same time destroyed his house. It was like he loved his mother, but at the same time he wanted to show his pain. |

| Why didn't Ginko tell him exactly what would happen? Why be mysterious? |
| bs episode about a murderous idiot... |
| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| Interesting Mushi those ones. I feel bad for the guy, he was just excited! |
| Ouch... This episode hit the spot in my heart. Imagine having a family who treats you like an outsider. Calling you useless, deadweight, or ungrateful. But when this child actually tries to be good, buy a nice gift to show his gratitude to his parent, then something goes wrong, and they still blame you for that. You can disagree with the boy here, calling him messed up because he wishes for his step-mother's death. But can you really blame him? After working hard on the sea, finally he thinks that he won't be useless anymore to his family, something goes wrong, he comes home, the mother basically calling him useless for buying "meaningless" gift, and the father calling him ungrateful for the boy seeminlgy appear carefree of the mother's illness while he actually chooses to help her. Wishing someone's death is wrong. But again, can you really blame the boy here? I think he takes the best solution, he acts on his pain in a much better way by destroying the house, healing his mother, left his "meaningless" gift according to his family, and head out by himself. The family does not deserve the boy, and the boy should not spend any more time and effort to try and please the family. For the boy, it's a good riddance. |
