| Very kawaii episode, but I didn't quite get why the fox kid had to go back to the forest where he kept getting bullied. >_> Why not stick around Natsume's neighborhood? |
| Lame episode. The concept is starting to wear off as well. I hope something happens soon. |
| Wearing the girl clothes seems like his way of holding on to his mother's memory. I mean he talks to the hat, and I don't see any youkai clothing stores around. To be honest, it's a good thing the fox was a boy, otherwise I would've cried man tears if he sent a little girl back to the forest to live alone with her mother's grave. But since it's a boy, effit. |

Very well said.. But she or he looks like a loli-foxversion of Anna Liebert/Nina Fortner from Monster. >.< Anyway, great ep once again. |
| Love this episode so much, the little fox is sooooo kawaii <3 It makes me feel all fuzzy and warm everytime I watch this episode... <3 I liked to see Natsume kind of happy at the begin of the episode, when he was laughing, it was nice to see him cheerfull for a change ^^ Seeing the little fox trying to seek shelter under that huge leaf was too cute for words! It made me want to hug him, kawaaaiii ~~~<3 My heart really broke for a moment when Natsume instantly replied with a cold "I don't need it". I really froze for a moment, thinking I read it wrong, thinking Natsume would never be that harsh... I was shocked... Until he explained he didn't wanted to have a master - servant relationship but wanted them to be friends *I melted* :) Ahww, the little fox was so cute when he tried to cheer himself up ^^ ~Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye!~ The holding hands and the train scene's were also really nice... But the best part was when Natsume went after him (after he was getting a little depressed, feeling lonely) and Natsume hugged him while he was crying <3 Most touching and cute scene so far! <3 |
| Not as good as the others, but still liked it. |
id said: What a great episode. I think this is my fav one so far. I agree. this episode is my favorite so far as well. it's just so cute. ^_^ ne? |
| Depressing... But very beautiful. |
 |
| It was a nice and cute episode, not as touching as previous eps, but it was good anyway (: |
| Beautiful episode ;~; |
| Such a cute fox. :D |
| It is interesting to see how Natsume is just as powerful as his grandmother (able to defeat the two bully demons pretty easily), but is such a gentle person. He's a good ambassador for humanity in general to the spirit world--and we probably need one seeing the way we treat nature. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| The most female-looking boy since Haku was born. The episode was beautiful though. |
  |
| I'm sure it's a she. Too cute to be a shota. DON'T TELL ME WRONG. Damn. Natsume shoulda kept her. |

| "one truth preveils" never was a bigger lie told in all of manga-land... |
| omg this ep was so lovely and cute ^^ the little fox was adorable :') |
| Waaaahhhhh so cute! Best episode so far. Wish the fix cub could stay with Natsume :3 |
| ♥ |
| Arhhh this ep is so heartwarming! That fox kid looks like Rin from Usagi Drop. So far this ep's the first that made my eyes slightly watery. :,) |
 Beautiful. |

| Natsume better go visit him like he promised.. :( I feel like he won't if he takes after his grandmother. >_< milkteh said: OMG HE DOES! :OArhhh this ep is so heartwarming! That fox kid looks like Rin from Usagi Drop. So far this ep's the first that made my eyes slightly watery. :,) |
 |

 |
| Oh, god this is so good. i feel so peaceful after watching every episode. |
| Nice, I liked fox boy. |
| Such junk... |
| Pretty sure it was a mistranslation if it said "I have to become a man." lol i mean she was adorable c: . the translation group i use said "If im going to grow up i have to stop crying." or something along those lines c,: this episode was nice |

| I wish the fox lived with hatsume. |
 |
| ever since i saw that little fox in the OP of every episode, i thought he was a girl.. oTL i mean, he was too cute to be a boy >_< nevertheless, good episode. |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
elisegrey said: *melts* Still not loving Natsume's voice actor, but still, *melts*. What? Are you kidding me :O *gasps for air* Ep was alright. Better than previous IMO. I will never understand why they draw the fox person as a "she", when she refers to herself as a man, thus making it a "he". Whatever sells more I guess.. |
| Pretty sweet episode, at least the fox isn't so lonely anymore. |
 |
| the fox boy looked like he could be natsume's sister... which is interesting and all considering the fact that he is a boy anyways this episode was great... natsume is such a kind young man ^^ great with kids too |

| I can't express the feelings I get from watching this anime. Such a calm series, I love it. |

| This was a great episode, especially loved the cute character in this one! Let's see what's next! |
 |
| This is already becoming an absolute favourite for me. It really is good for the soul. Just beautiful. |
| i almost hnnnged until i realize that trap it's a he because he addresses himself as "boku," as far as I know there are almost no girls who address themselves as that. good guy natsume as usual, and nice warm ending :3 keep these comin' |
  |
| I'm liking this anime more and more with every episode :) |
| That was a wonderful episode. The little fox boy was soo cute :3 |
 |
| Adorable episode o.o |
 |
| Adorable little fox! So kawaii! |
 |
| "Youki don't pay attention to things like gender" - Episode freaking one. You guys are weird. Does the fox being a boy or girl change anything? Like, at all? Are you trying to jerk off to it or something? Wtf... |

DragonsWhip said: The fox doesn't look really male if you ask me, even wearing a shirt and a woman-like hat. Looks more like a mistranslation or something. Also if you look at his/her head: it has definitely the face structure of a girl. Okay, this whole ''what gender is it'' thing aside (I still don't know what it actually is), but it really reminded me of xxxHolic >.> Young fox, helped by main character, unable to transform into a human. Oh well, they both started publishing in the same year... lol r u honestly judging it by it's face structure??? THIS IS ANIME!!! Honestly... |
| Indeed This Episode is Beautiful. |

But since it's a boy, effit. Holy shit that is a sexist thing to say. Even if he is a boy no child should go through that. Red_Keys said: "Youki don't pay attention to things like gender" - Episode freaking one. You guys are weird. Does the fox being a boy or girl change anything? Like, at all? Are you trying to jerk off to it or something? Wtf... I agree with you completely. This is one of the things that annoys me in today's anime community (and also irl). Someone's gender is their personal matter and it shouldn't matter to anyone else unless it's a plot point. Are people that worried about their sexuality that if a fucking 2D character has "girlish" features they should be a girl so it would be more appropriate to fap thinking them and still remain straight?? Anyways... I really liked the small kitsune. I wished that Natsume would have let him live near his house but I guess not :C |
 |
| I never suspected for a moment that the little fox was a boy. Well, they were adorable, whatever they were. |
90s J-rock was our aesthetic peak. |
| this really was an adorable episode ...but damn why did I have to come to this thread; this is the most horrible trap I've seen so far |
| Cute episode, the little fox *girl* reminded me of Holo lol >.>. I actually suspected he was a boy at first, but then the other demons calling him a *she* kinda confused me lol... Red_Keys said: "Youki don't pay attention to things like gender" - Episode freaking one. You guys are weird. Does the fox being a boy or girl change anything? Like, at all? Are you trying to jerk off to it or something? Wtf... To be fair, the demons that were bullying him did refer to him as a *she* at one point. But no, it doesn't matter to me personally lol. I do like the theory someone else posted that he wore those clothes to hold onto the memory of his mother, which would make sense. Either way its just a little kid, so the gender shouldn't be a huge concern for anyone lol... |
