THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Some moments:
I find this part VERY DISTURBING in supernatural phenomenon:

ONE OF THE FUNNIEST OF NYANKO SENSEI MOMENT APART FROM #11 ONES:

THE COOLEST MOMENT FOR NATSUME IN THE THIS WHOLE SEASON...I FIND.


Oh wow! That was not cool to have MISUZU test Natsume.....SHADOW ARE DANGEROUS! This episode shows best of how they may be. REMEMBER this is anime so the form they show might only what those who created the anime think. In reality it can worse than this one you saw but that is only depending on your religion since most of Natsume is paranormal activity regarding the supernatural.

I find it CUTE the way they portrait that bird that helps Natsume. So now he has a LIGHT DIFFUSER that when close to any shadow type it can kill it by exposing it to light! COOOOOOOOOOOL!

nyanko sensei in different sizes is so moe!!! was really touched when natsume finally admitted that touko and husband are his family...

yeah coolest scene of the whole season, i was captivated by natsume there and then ^-^


Come to think of it...did he not admit one before??? I am thinking you might be right about him admitting this the first time but I felt like he admitted it before. Can you tell for sure?

meh, religious beliefs use evil spirits as a means to ward off people from doing "evil" things. anyone who claims they seen a sprit or a ghost of some sort...well, ill just say, if it brings then comfort or horror then i cant knock it. but i also know how effective the power of sugestion is....especially the self induced ones.


That's why I hate evil spirits or demons. They always test you, make stupid suggestions and give you all but in the end you are their slave. It's funny how many millionaires have fun now but I truly how much fun will it to be for them to be abused by demons and likes they make deals with after they are dead. After all money is useless when you are death!

I like Hinoue (not as much as Asagi though), a typical "I don't trust human" spirit

Definately agree on that coolest scene of the whole season

awesome episode again. I also agree that Natsume summoning the servant was cool.
QUESTION! Can Natsume summon another one? Or does the scroll get used up :| Not like he'll need to. Last episode's already aired...

Next episode!: All the characters that didn't move on?! Awesome!

To your question, yes he can summon another one but he needs to get scroll from Honie. She took it back after all.

So just wait till the last second and summon some very small looking creature that is very powerful. Kinda boring, but I guess he had to survive.

Downloading episode 13 right now!!

Really tense episode but resolved too fast, the merry ghost would make a good movie. And Natsume got the same mark as the guy from Princess Monoke.

The slowly moving shadow was scary. D:

Especially when Natsume woke up and it was there. But it was scary in general. Creepiest thing in anime I've seen in a long time.

I hate the "It was all a test" stuff but oher than that this episode was interesting and advanced the story somewhat. It was even kind of suspenseful. When Natsume was running for his life I didn't feel like "Oh, a big spirit is running after Natsume and is trying to kill him, let's see what boring way Natsume will escape."

So Natsume made the lesbo spirit straight?

The shadow thing was the scariest thing I've ever seen in any anime. Ever.

Agree. It freaked me out a little.

I generally find that less is more when it comes to horror. The plain looking things and things you don't know well are the scariest. Once the shadow morphed into the ayakashi thing, it wasn't very scary.

The shadow was indeed scary. And to tell you the truth, I don't really like the slice-of-life mixed with action. But overall it was still a great episode.

Wow... that slowly moving shadow is creepy... At first, I believe by day 5, he'll be able to run as fast as human, and I thought all Natsume can do is run to the other side of Japan or something.

I'm scared for Natsume's life TBH. Waking up looking into a mouth that will eat him.

Favorite episode!!! I love this scary episode... I get the feeling that this is the beginning of Natsume learning exorcist spells.

I felt like something was missing from this episode but still I enjoyed it.

Natsume learned that he loved his "family" and a new lesson about spirits.

But I can't believe that there is only one more episode left in this season. It feels like I've been watching this anime for a long time, when in truth it has only been a few days.

^This. I'm sure I'll be having a nightmare about that thing at some point in the future...

I was kinda miffed that the whole thing was Misuzu testing him.
Misuzu: Hey, remember how you've been suffering for days & came like thisclose to dying? Well, I set all that up. Just curious to see what you'd do.
Natsume: Well..huh. Oh well...

I also had a hard time trying to decide whether I thought giant Nyanko-sensei or pocket Nyanko-sensei was more awesome. :P
