She was thrown in that small village suddenly by that Keki women and then the parrot controlling old man called her ? How did Sugimoto get out ? And was the reason why even Youko's face changed was that water fairy thing ?
After all Youko isn't special. This episode explained that the water fairy made appearance change, become stronger by being controlled or can even control it's power and talk with others. (but to the speaker it sounds like it's own language but the listener beside can't understand when it's not their own language and not talking to them) right ?
I'm a bit confused. This anime is so much fun then any other animes. Sad not many are discussing. It really makes me forget everything and get hooked on this fantasy world.
btw this anime never lets Youko meet with same people again. (I mean she did met with Sugimoto and that little girl but didn't we all expected that Youko will see Keiki , Rat and Asano again ?

How come suddenly Sugimoto re-appeared again?! :o So confusing! For a while there i thought i accidentally skipped an episode or something!

And when Yuka woke up, and we see the view of En, how come it looks like she's on a very high place? I mean, the animation looks awkward.. Again, confused.

Kinda sad to see that rat die so early..

So sad that the "new" Hanjyuu died... even if it was supposedly "doing what he wanted" and in protecting someone else. The good guys are always selfless like that - even going as far to save those that put them down or doubted them.

I hope Yuka has finally come to her senses this time. She should be told the phrase "Better late than never", at least when it comes to changing your attitude and others changing theirs (i.e. Youko becoming a better person).

So they reached En! The next episode looks interesting, what with that new dude and stuff. I wonder if he's a potential love interest for Youko? o_O In any case, I hope Rakushun makes an appearance once again...

^she lost her hinman for some reason (that liquid youma that gave her the ability to fight, speak the language, change her face, etc.) - thats why she changed back.

for a second there i thought sugimoto was starting to lean towards youko's side...but she ended up trying to kill her again (i should have known). without her hinman though, i think that she'll be forced to rely on youko since she can no longer speak the language...again (awkward, lol).

and i'm still waiting for rakashun to return!! i hope he's okay :/

Poor cat hanjyuu :(

I doubt Yuka has turned over a new leaf. She's still convinced she's the savior of the world.

Ugh, Sugimoto is still on my "most hated characters" list. And she must have one hell of a redemption to get off of it. I think sacrificing herself won't be enough. Seriously, I think I hate her even more than Sae from Peach Girl.

Lmao. That's one way to put it. Too bad the king of Kou is helping to feed her delusions since he's pretty delusional himself as everyone will soon see.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

It's getting even worse for Sugimoto or so I thought. At least she wasn't permanently disfigured. Surely better news are that she's slowly beginning to see the light. Much appreciated, cat boy. Your brave sacrifice wasn't in vain.

The only empathetic note that I'll offer to Yuka is that I do understand her saying "too little, too late". When you get bullied, and then years later your bully apologizes, I'd have that same mentality as well depending on the severity of the bullying. Personally, I'd be willing to forgive some of my old bullies, or the people like Youko who just sat and watched, so I highly disagree with Yuka there. I can understand people being too scared to interfere, and I do understand some people wanting to be liked. Yuka is actually hypocritical in that regard, because her anger stems from her wanting to be liked, just like Youko. Youko is changing her thinking, and she's still holding a grudge. Honestly, it seems like Yuka just wants to go scorched earth.
