| A really good conclusion to a rare 2 episode arc. I love this show. |
 |
aksdldew3 said: Madara staying in his true form near Natsume was so touching. I really like Taki a lot. Agree completely. |
| Nice conclusion to this story though one thing bothers me. Natsume has all these yokai friends who know curses and other spells and he also knows Natori who works as an exorcist; you'd think he would learn how to defend himself with some sort of weapon or spell but nope. I mean I understand Nyan-ko Sensei is his bodyguard but a pretty half-ass one, so it'd be cool if he could learn to defend himself. Just my little gripe about Natsume, but this was still a nice episode with a new character part of Natsume's growing friend group. |
 |
| Nyanko-sensei caring for Natsume is really touching, I almost cried when Natsume couldn't see him as Madara. Natsume was always alone because of his ability to see youkai, but when he couldn't see Madara or Chobi, he seemed just as lonely as before. Ah, the irony ;_; I'm glad Natsume made another friend! He and Taki seem to get along well with each other, and it's good that there's actually someone who knows about his ability to see youkai. Also, the part where Nyanko-sensei and Chobi are fighting is so funny! X) |
| Well, this latest episode concludes the brief arc. I liked the way it ended. Lol'd @ her trying to resist Madara's cuteness. Anyways, it looks like everything is back to normal again. That mustache spirit was kinda strange tbh. |
 |
| lol i like that mustache youkai, it seemed he and Madara would get along just fine XD I hope Taki would make more appearances in the future episodes. |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| That evil Youkai was very annoying, glad madara bit the hell out of him before he was sealed. |
 |
| Nice conclusion to this short story but well quite lovely story, I wonder if that character has a bigger role in the overall story than just this short arc! Either way this sure was lovely so let's see what's next! |
 |
| Very good episode. Nyanko-sensei taking care of Natsume in his other form was touching. Idk but I'd expect Touko-san to start to get worried of Natsume coming home tired. |
 |
| The part where Natsume couldn't see Nyanko when he switched to his true form was sad as hell. You could just feel the loneliness in the air. It was heartbreaking. This was a really nice episode. I'm enjoying these more and more. |
| Why does the girl respond to the cat when he talks? Shouldn't he have to be sitting in a circle for them to be able to communicate? After Natsume and the cat roll down the hill, the girl looks at the cat when he's speaking. This is very confusing. Is this a mistake or intentional? Is she simply paying attention to the cat because Natsume is talking to it or what? Edit: Ok, I just got to a part where Taki clearly hears what the cat is saying. What the hell? How? Edit2: OK, just finished it and now she can't hear mr kitty again. Thoroughly confused |

| Welp, now I'm aboard the Natsume x Taki ship. Hope we see more of her from now on, because she has a lot more in common with Natsume and can understand and relate to him much more than Tanuma or whatshisface actor guy. |
| natsume hesitantly calling out to nyanko-sensei because he's unable to see him :) the look in madara's eyes as he's standing right there, wrapped around natsume :) madara doesn't answer, just breathes a gust of air that ruffles natsume's hair :) the sound of my heart breaking into a billion pieces :) |

| Natsume x Taki I hope does happen |
| Great episode and first I think to have a two part continuation. I was worried at first when he lost his ability but thank god it was just minor and also knowing that there is season 3 etc haha. I like Taki she matches well with Natsume although she might be more extroverted than what was seen first, still good and I hope to see more of her since now she knows that natsume can see Yokai and also her as well; I won't jump on the romance boat just yet cause well I don't think this anime is all about that. Good to see the seen where madara watched over Natsume after dealing with that evil one, shows that the bond is getting stronger between the two. |
 |
| The relationships in this anime progress so naturally, I love it! Especially enjoy the relationship that has grown between Natsume and his guardian, and him and Madara. So unforced and sweet. |
| Nyanko is the best. Love that fat piece of fur. |
| Episode pretty quiet, exciting enough, Natsume yet know himself better, he now knows that without the Ayakashi, you will not feel at ease, that change in his feelings, wow! However the story did not disappoint, the atmosphere we breathed was in line with what we have seen previously, sympathetic the interlude between Taki and Nyanko-sensei. |
 |
TAKASHI AND TOORU, I SHIP YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!! Tooru is a great and fresh character to the story, I can relate to her in some things, and so can I with Natsume :D I really hope they get together in the end, or in the middle, or right now. I've been the whole episode like this: New OTP <3 |
 |
| Bloody hell, so much happened in these two episodes! - First two-episode arc, first cliffhanger - Some actual dramatic tension - Eye lick - Natsume's first legit Ayakashi sealing - New ship has sailed I absolutely dig this! |
| One does not simply resist hugging Nyanko-sensei :o |
|
| That damn Youkai was so evil. He should have taken the name and put it on the Book of Friends then burned the page... |
| LOL |
| He couldn't see youkai, that was sad. Lol, Madara and that moustache youkai are really funny. |
 |
| When he couldn't see Nyanko sensei I felt a sorrowful feeling, and he realized how precious he is. |
| Madara saves the day. Really great episode. More Taki would be nice. When Natsume couldn’t see any Yokai he realized how important Madara is to him. Can’t help but feel sad when one day they go their separate ways. |
 |
| For some reason these 2 episodes felt like some of the best from the season so far. I don't know, it just felt like something that was missing was brought into play in this lil arc. Maybe the new character helped freshen things up a bit? And the colours felt more vivid too... For such a usually relaxing show, the necessary tension was well done, the comedy too (that bit wit Toki and Nyanko-sensei was really good) and the subtle but always present bit of development of the relationship between Natsume and Nyanko.. Youkai are part of Natsume's life, it's perfectly normal he'd feel lonely without them around.. That was a good episode, very good conclusion to this Youkai |
 "In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH |
"Nature itself is absurd. Humans are the only ones who whine about it."  |
 |
| And so one of my favourite arcs comes to an end. Here's to hoping it will lead to even more and better ones. |
  |
| I’m just glad that he regain his “eyes” to see Yokai, it was actually sad when he lost the ability to see them. And hopefully Taki will be a main stay character. Natsume and Taki looks good together though I’m pretty sure there’s nothing gonna happen. |
| I honestly kinda love taki lol for some reason she’s so relatable in a way |
| Good episode. I also thought how lonely it must be to stop seeing Youkai after seeing them so much. |
| That was a nice conclusion. Natsumi got a new friend. Nyanko-sensei and Chobihige's argument at the end was hilarious. |
 |
| Show needs more arcs even if it'll only last 2 episodes!! Must've been painful for Taki to isolate herself from people, good thing Natusmi helped her out. I can't tell what the author aims for with that megane girl but her lack of personality is not cut out for Natsumi, even though she definitely has a thing for him. Would absolutely not mind more of Taki x Natsumi though! |
