Well, that was kind of mysterious with this whole island adventure theme episode. Ryuu did seem like a kind kid though with his personality.

This episode almost had an OVA type of vibe or like a standalone episode. I know this anime is still kinda warming itself up but Hakusyurin is amusing to watch.

Don't miss the end credit scene! They're teasing next week's episode. Again, as I said for episode 1, I loved this one too. I don't understand why so many people dropped the anime already and why the rating is so low! It's funny, the animation is great, the characters are endearing and the plot is interesting and intriguing! :)

I’m not understanding the insanely low rating to this show already with only 2 eps, but so far it’s not bad at all. This is why I don’t really look at the ratings too often, because there’s plenty of uninteresting shows I’ve seen that were in the 8+, and really enjoyable ones in the 6s & 7s. I’ll continue watching until there’s actually a good enough reason to drop it.

This doesn't deserve below 6, but I don't really like the characters or how episodic that was. Will give it one more for the plot to show some promise.

A group of three guys plus one boy traveling together on a yokai business trip reminds me of Saiyuki (Reload).

The other world is our Earth. They mention going to Japan before traveling there and being on an island in southern Japan when they're there. They're in or near Okinawa. So I assume that all of the countries from our world exist just the same as Japan. The only detail I'm not sure about is if it is modern times or somewhat further back in the past. The woman from Tokyo seemed pretty modern though.

Ryu is officially part of the gang. I’m glad that he’s not going to be left behind.

Both Tenko and Ichiyo being taken care of Bui and his family on the island where their home resides, but with the storm that rages like all's to be feared, their little brother Ryu being the Thunder Beast that consumes lightning, it certainly comes as a shock to Bui. Moreover, with his horns kept and enshrined, Tenko has no choice but to allow a way for both Bui and Ichiyo to retrieve from the shrine, to which the deed works for an exchange to allow Ryu to join the wandering "tourists" and leave the island.

On the other side of the Earth, the politics portion with the Queen Mother of the West and the dignitaries which Ichiyo has some acquaintance with her, what exactly is their relationship?

I liked the mystery-solving nature of this episode.

Also a shame that Ichiyou would be too strong to tame the fox 😬 but I'm assuming it will be to his advantage later on when he encounters something very strong.
