I don't think he is. If anything would have turned him immortal, it would have been his backstory with the whole Tokoyami thing, but he actually has aged from a child to an adult.

Episodes 1, 2, 3, and 5 are some of my favorites. Every episode felt beautiful, had a backstory, and a cool mushi. The characters all had a concept relating to the mushi.

Nice comeback episode after the so-so episode 4. Mother/son bonding is an interesting concept to explore and good on Mushi-shi to keep it pretty natural. Think about it because Ginko didn't really use anything except the mother's made robe on the son.

loved it!!

a big part of the issue was psychological: no contact with his mother, difficult relation with his father, causing loneliness, and so much angst just piling up on top of that. that's why the end was so beautiful to see: no need for medicine anymore, cause all that he needed was to feel happy and loved.

(oh well. i feel like i cant express myself well enough (English is not my mother toungue) but I just discovered this discussion topic and I had to share!! :P)

It's rare to see ginko being wrong or realizing that he had done a mistake. the story itself was interesting but will be forgotten amongst the others if I had to compare it with the others.

Pretty cool robe, only drawback would be that it's invisible and also alive lol. Sweet ending :)

That was really beautiful. I didn't like the father for nearly the full episode but the mom was wonderful throughout. Also probably the most charming woman so far. The reveal that the angel made me emotional. Glad to see a happy end. Truly a mother's love is unexplainable.

Also Ginko is too handsome to age haha

Great episode! Looks like his mother was always taking care of him right there, they only had to meet again to go back to usual, way less dramatic than usual but still as beautiful.

Got a lil bit teary at the end. Very sweet ending with the boy overcoming his anger because of his mom coming back. Such a beautiful show.

I like how this episode gave us a bunch of pieces, and later on put all of them together. I guess many people would think that people that see Mushi are crazy.

Episode with a very quiet and mysterious narrative. However, no indecipherable puzzle, only a delicate story full of maternal and family love, as well. I also read a message: not all people are the same, needless to believe that we are, there are particular men and women and really stupid people and nothing else. More than good drawings and OSTs.

wholesome episode.
very interested to see what that robe can do in the hands of a mushishi. Honestly wonder if Ginko would keep it or sell it.
Although we haven't seen to many other Mushishi, i honestly wonder if there are any that exploit mushi for there uses like in a evil-ish sort of way, for more of their benefit ignoring the fact that the Mushi are also living beings that feel as well and just abuse there powers/knowledge of mushi.

It might be an overstatement to say this episode saved my life, but what it did was certainly not less than that.
