| That was a very sweet episode..The fox child is so cute trying to collect the herb for Natsume and Nyanko-sensei |
 |
| Poor Rock God :( He saved lil Kogitsune and sacrificed himself.. Rock God, you rock! |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| Good episode. This series just keeps churning out heartwarming episodes. And loved that Natsume painted Nyanko-sensei in the tea cup. I'm sure sensei loved it too :D |

| It was great to see that little fox girl again :D She remains uber cute :D let's see what's next! |
 |
| I really liked this episode... didn't really enjoy the "arc" with the bunch of bad guys before this, so it was good to see a return to the classic Natsume~ Anyways, Natsume is such a kind and sweet young man. It's no surprise that almost all of the youkai he meet fall in love with him LOL. Speaking of youkai, that was a very valiant act by the Stone god :') |

| That was a nice cute episode with the fox again. I like the theme of the difference of time between youkais and humans This is another episode that gives us all sorts of foreshadowing that the relationship between Natsume and Nyanko-sensei is going to end up tragic/sad. Like with Reiko and Nyanko. |
| How the hell is this fox male? Is this just an error in the translation or what? Doesn't look like a guy at all: "he" looks like Taki Edit: Checked the wiki.... he's a guy. Japan pls |

| Ahh such a Nice Episode. I love that fox kid soo much. And , Rest in Peace Rock God. |
 |
| An episode that eventually I felt very sad, perhaps because in that meeting between Natsume and Kogitsune, there was a final farewell between the two. I hope to revise the little fox. Nice the underlying message, narrative non-trivial, script he sin of naivete on one occasion, oh well! |
 |
| Whenever this plays: It always hit at home, that warm yet sad feeling, that is what is so special about Natsume, it manages over and over again to create those little meaningfull moments, make you all fuzzy and moved inside. This episode started slow but by the end another simple yet so relaxing and enjoyable episode. |
 |
| this show never fails to deliver both in sadness and happiness |
 |
| Damn, the rock died as he lived. What a baller |
| i loved everything about this episode. but especially the part where the god of rock spoke with kogitsune about time. it gave me a special feeling. i appreciate that a lot |
| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| I found it odd that Natsume got really worried about the fox because of the storm. It's been a year since you last saw him, I doubt that there wasn't a single thunderstorm during that time frame lol. |
 |
| In this anime-original outing Natsume, Nyanko-sensei and Shigeru take a trip for a pottery class/hot springs visit. They head to the same place where the young fox youkai Natsume previously met now resides, anxious to meet him once again. An okay episode, but I probably woulda gotten more out of it had I really remembered the previous episode it referenced more than barely at all. With the theme of youkai and humans living different lifespans and a young child gathering herbs this actually reminded me of two Rin-centric Inuyasha anime-original episodes more than anything else. :D That stone youkai came off kinda douchey until he sacrificed himself to save the fox. Guess he really did mean well all along. Natsume making a fox bowl for the fox child in the end was pretty cute, in addition to the Nyanko-sensei one he made of course. :D |
| The stone god saved the little fox, sweet. |
 |
| T_T Last season in which Kogitsune appears |
 |
| Absolutely beautiful episode. Love the fox guy. I find it funny that I was coincidentally listening to a song by The Cure called "A Thousand Hours" just a few minutes before watching this episode.. |
| The Conviction Arc is even better than the Golden Age Arc. |
| I always feel emotional whenever I saw scenes w/ Kogitsune TT__TT He's living alone and I feel sad for him huhuhuhu |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
monosyllable said: Ugh ... I wish kogitsune could at least move to the forest near Natsume's home. YES !! TT___TT or be with Natsume like Nyanko! I forgot if it's forbidden for him to leave the forest but before he did go to Natsume's house and he's fine :( |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Rock god saved Kogitsune. Natsume made a bowl for Madara was sweet of him especially for the Fox too. |
 |
| My eyes are filled with water now... ;-; Really warm episode. |
| I guess the rock god had another life's purpose... I loved this episode. I'm so happy they got to meet in the end and that the fox child got to do something for Natsume. Their friendship is so pure. But on a different note, those rude kids were assholes. Leave Natsume aloneeee! |

| That little fox makes my day every time :D |
 |
| I’m sweating from my eyes ╥﹏╥ The little fox is too precious. |
| Good episode. Nice to see the little fox learning to live on his own and not letting those Ayakashis bother him. Although the little fox still has a lot of attachment to Natsume. |
| It was nice see Kogitsune again. He has gotten so much stronger. Those two bullies don't have a chance against him anymore. That fox plate was cute. Nyanko-sensei looked cute when he was sleeping in Natsume's bag. ^^ |
 |
| Wow, I loved this episode, even tho I didn't really like Kogitsune when he first appeared. The Rock God was quite likeable too, it's so sad they died. |
  |
| It's moving how the Rock god sacrificed his life for a beast wih a relatively short lifespan compared to his (it's not completely clear but there are implications that the Beast/Kemono type of Youkai live with a different pace compared to both Humans and Ayakashi Youkai). I gues that over time he grew fond of the little fox boy even if it was acting against his wise advice. The idea that the Rock God would have lived after all Humans and Youkai are be no more is actually kind of scary. |
  |
| I missed the fox so much. Good to see her back. (Yes I am using her cause its female enough for me) |
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
| Wonderful episode that encapsulates the show for me. Light-hearted and warm, with a hint of sadness. Strange and sometimes adorable youkai. Humans and youkai living on different times but their paths occasionally intersecting, hopefully changing each others' lives for the better. Nyanko sensei. Very strong season so far, even if it's "more of the same." |
| Loved it. Every episode with my beloved Kogitsune is a pleasure. |
