Oh wow! That was amazing.
Huge build up of events and characters, we finally know a bit about Ushio's mother.
I am so curious to know why is she protecting the monster. Also how did the father marry her :p

Tora is the best creature ever :D

The whole part of the old man being a youkai, moreover the boss of youkais is very weird. Why would he take human form and be in a random forest?

Anyways I loved the episode. The match between Tora and Hitotsuki was predictable, but decent at least. 4/5

This series is so underrated

Interesting episode, with the sentence "You can take whatever you need from Mayohiga" completing the reference to the Tohno/Touno Legend (Tōno Monogatari). Even the chikens and the tea boiling in one of the rooms are references!

Another fun episode just as I'm used to by now. As a little warning in advance to the anime-only viewers, though - next week's episode is going to skip 21 (!) chapters, chapter 54~74. If you want to get the full story, read those before next week, especially since it actually does contain some fun mini-arcs. Due to those skips, either next week or the week after that should introduce my favorite character from the manga though, so I'm hyped already.

Holy shit 21 chapters!?!? Well.... guess I'm going to have to try to find some time to read the manga this week. Gonna be tough since I was planning to start reading Shokugeki no Soma and Rokka no Yuusha.


Well, everyone thought them skipping that angry priest dude would ruin it, and they managed to throw in everything truly important from those chapters at the start of episode 10.

I think they're only leaving in the stories absolutely crucial to the overall plot, and anything from those chapters that is, will be thrown in later on. I'm not worried.


By the way, when you say "21 chapters", it makes it sound like such a lot, but you failed to mention that each 'episode' that the anime adapts is like 6+ chapters in the manga. I seem to recall that Rock Eater one being 4 chapters, yet in both animes, they only covered it in 1 and included 99% of the content. So you're making it seem far worse than it is. The chapters are short.

So in 21 chapters, that's like... what? 3 stories, 4 maybe? That's not TOO drastic.



Anyway, I knew that old guy was a Tengu the moment I saw his face, haha. Great episode, but I don't have much to say past that.
Just that I want to see more where it goes.

Probably monitoring the youkai in his area; what better way to observe them out of control if they think he's just a human? And if they to eat him... boy will they ever be surprised.

And considering that the cake lady knew him, he probably dons this disguise and interacts with the humans quite often.

Life can be cruel and unfair. At worst it can traumatize and cripple you. The desire for wanting things to return to the way they were can cost everything and changes nothing. The best way is to keep moving forward, struggle on.
Anger can be powerful but can only get you so far. Let people into your life even if some of them leave you in time.

Fight. Like. Hell. For everything and everyone you love. Always.

nice we got the true form of the big bad and im glade its not an orange 9 tail fox lol. That was a pretty neat 1 on 1 fight with tora. Also holy crap the old dude is a tengu. Cant wait to hear the reason why they kept this guy locked up and im guessing we are heading to an end with yoki and humans co existing.
