I wonder if Rin ever smile. :/ He had such sad expression on his face; deep in his thoughts.


He seemed to smile at the end of the episode.

I loved rin as dad, so cute! But the story was sad </3

thats such a sad way to die… especially for a child. and it make it even worse, his skull was still there. anyway, this arc was really entertaining, but I'm craving another arc like the doll one
7.5/10 for this case

This is my favorite episode so far. I felt so bad for Kenji. I just wanted to hug and comfort him.

Lin-san is probably my favorite character. Although Monk always gets me laughing. It's funny how this series can first make me laugh and in five seconds I'm holding tears. This has been a good surprise.

That was sad, really sad. If the thing hadn't collapsed, he'd have come back. I guess Lin got kinda attached to him towards the end.

Lin finaly snapped, they should see this comming, making fun at his extent. Not only Naru is proud here. Actualy, the whole bunch have their sore points, but they work together well. And I'm glad there are good male characters present, which is rare.

Damn, this can make me cry. It's more sad, than if the father had abandoned him, but turns out he had died and would never come.

Woah, that kid was an hardcore hide'n seek player...

The Chrismas atmosphere was well done. Too bad I never watch those king of episode during Chrismas.

I'm pretty sure they took his remains down, they just didn't show it onscreen for some reason. Depressing way to die, especially since he was just a kid :(

That poor Kinji-kun kid. I wonder why his father dropped him off like that. Did he really intend to return for him some day? Or was he just a deadbeat asshole??

On rewatching this arc I realized how many times they showed those statues...what seemed like pretty filler shots of the church was actually really sad foreshadowing :(

Lin must've had a rough childhood of his own or lost a child way too soon to act that way towards Kenji. The way he turned back towards the church and imagined how cold and lonely the kid was up there up until his last moments must've been tough for him.

The ending was really sad and it took my all to not tear up but at least he's with his dad now.

ok it's kind of ridiculous that nobody noticed a child's corpse in the front of the church for 30 years, but it did the sad thing pretty well so whatever. heartbreaking to realize that he slowly froze to death all alone. I would have found the ending with his dad sadder if they had made the dad seem like a normal person lmao

An overall more lighthearted case than usual, but much more fitting with the rest of the show than whatever episode 11 was.

What a great episode. I almost felt sorry for Rin. Almost... lol. To see Mai hanging all over him after she is possessed by Kinji-kun. Priceless. I loved it when Naru says... "Play with him... Dad" I died laughing.

And of course, the other exorcists reactions... Ayako with the video camera, and Hosho snickering. I loved it. I did cry at the end though. Yeah, I'm a sucker for these kinds of things.

This is such a great series. We need to get some of the other regulars watching this!!! Watch it people!! Watch it!!
@Chelle Yes, this episode was really exciting 💖
Everything about it and especially the little boy's story was very profound. In the end he thanks Naru-Chan for taking him out of this suffering of not being able to see his father.
I want to thank you for everything you did in your life girl, after doing a little research I discovered that you are no longer with us, which is a shame. I sent you a friend request before I found out that you died, I wanted to be able to talk to you about this anime and episode but it's a shame that you left. you were probably a good person and should rest in peace 🕊️ Kisses 😘
