| holy shit, things went from 0-100 quick. Good to see other Mushi-shi, was starting to think Ginko was the only one about xD too bad about the old man, sadly you can't save everyone i guess and he seemed pretty determined in what he was doing. but HOT DAMN that ending. The scene with Ginko sitting in the open field staring at this fucking terrifying massive snake curled up on a mountain looks like something straight out of some Dark Souls or Monster Hunter game. Something about the colour of the skies to the field and the change of colours of the mountains just compliment each other so well, i love it |
 "yabe." |
| Another amazing episode. Btw why does every character in every episode (other than Ginko) look the same? |
 |
| This was the most emotionally intense episode by far. Man, that was a cool ending with a big ass Mushi just chillin. |
   |
The episodes just keep getting amazing as they progress. The Kuchinawa chilling on top of the mountain was great, loved the tragic story of Mujika. |

| oh my that was a really good episode. my favorite so far. |
 |
| Maybe.. maybe, if Mujika didn't come to that village, he won't meet Saku and his life wouldn't be that sad. Bear the consequences of Saku's reckless actions and sacrifice himself so that no one else becomes the guardian of the mountain. But maybe it was all fate. After all he also said that he did want to live in the village and seemed to be interested in Saku as well. Although I'm sure.. he certainly didn't think that Saku would do it. Sad. Sad.. The kuchinawa.. scary but pretty cool. Hahah. |

| The stories of Mushi-shi aren't particularly complex, but they're very imaginative, but in a subdued sort of way. They're quiet, but they vary in scale, magnitude, and even brutality. There aren't any particular morals or lessons learned from each episode, as it's made explicit that most of these incidents occur without any fault or blame. Circumstances lead to people and mushi acting as they do, and if tragedies occur along the way, it becomes an exercise of self-restraint and understanding of mushi and the world at large. If there was anything to be learned, I suppose it would be co-existence with nature, as well as the awareness of what happens when humans mess with powers they aren't familiar with. |
| The image of the big snake on the mountain looking like a living snowcap is really freakin cool |
| Major Princess Mononoke vibes here. Ginko should have an apprentice. |
| Loved that ending scene with Ginko looking at the gigantic Kuchinawa. What a majestic sight. |
| He was just giving back what wasn't his. Amazing episode! |
| The Master-eating Mushi. R.I.P Mujika. He was an interesting old dude. Talking about a yandere wife. That giant snake at the end was very cool. |
