Awesome, Masato showed up this episode. I know he is a bit of a troublemaker already just judging by his personality/actions. However, I do have to say that Masato's powers are also quite impressive. The guy has quite a devious mind as well with his traps.

Seems like we're getting a little bit of history regarding Rinne's childhood as well. Cute kid. I like this development from the episode.

Masato's appearance and what he does for revenge. When he appears in front of not just Rinne and the main girl, but also two humans that related to the not yet dead soul, he begins to talk about his grudge for not able to turn in his summer homework. lol~ typo.

lol @ that girl's happy moments. lol @ the photoshop, though he knows human nature, and used it for trap. It seems like he also brought Rinne to the hell as his trap he set. Battle in the hell next ep.

ED adding Masato.

LITTLE RINNE IS FO FUCKING CUTE
Alright, this episode was really funny. I'm really liking this kind of comedy!
However, things also got serious. We got to know a new character (whose voice actor is Tetsuya Kakihara, god I love that man's voice <3) and I loved his credit card attack, like, I love how everyone has money except for Rinne xD poor baby
Hmmm, so next week we get a fight in hell! Interesting

I love Rumiko's humor. It's not as crazy as Urusei or as fighting intensive as Ranma or Inu Yasha but it's still a bit there its own way. The entire episode was full of palm face humor. Really enjoying this.

Hahaha! The comedy is great, though there are a lack of actions.

This is one of the anime in which I never skip the OP and ED. Love the theme songs.

Good episode, but Masato is such a stupid and annoying character. I really can't stand characters like that.

Still, everything else was good, and it looks like Rinne might actually be legitimately challenged for once.

The comedy was on point in this episode and everything from beginning to end just flowed really well....I can't believe that the dude fell for that photoshopped image xDDD

That flashback to their childhood tho lmfaoooo Masato really is as petty as they come xD Little Rokudou had a complete 180 once he became broke lel

Hell yes, Masato has appeared! He's one of my favorite characters and he has a great voice too.

This episode was very well done and I like how the anime added some funny flashbacks with the wrestling girl and her boyfriend.

Masato and Reiji are almost equally stupid. Reiji is probably a bit more though, for falling for his foolish trick so easily..

I did like the little comedy (except for Minami's "happy" moments, which wasn't funny in the least.). Much better compared to some from the previous episodes.

Still don't understand why normal people don't get surprised when they see something supernatural happening in front of them. Is that like an everyday thing there?

Decent episode. Rokudou vs. Monsters and possible Masato should be interesting.

Masato can't spell XDDD

Rokudou was rich back then.

So Masato hasn't even got a single soul for Hell all this time : 0

Tsubasa wasn't even in this episode? He could have helped out.

That new vilain is really hilarious. Not knowing how to write its own name, that's really pathetic x)
And that reason to why Rinne is his nemesis... That's a first time I saw something like that.

Sakura emotionless reactions are always hilarious too. That girl face says she don't a fuck, yet, she really give a fuck!

Interesting episode, but the series has too many similarities to Inuyasha for me to enjoy. It has some very funny moments and dialogue though; that makes it bearable.

The tone so dramatic that we wanted to give the episode, some contrasts with the behavior of the protagonists, so careless in the first moments, and then so serious but non-productive in the end. I did not expect a self-contained episode, I'm a little surprised; in terms of the story it is getting better really then. The drawings are a little too dull, should improve.

I was just thinking the characters seem very similar to InuYash's characters too! InuYasha is my favorite anime though, so I don't mind. Here's what I came up with so far: (In spoiler tag because it's kind long-ish)



I wonder if I'll find more similarities as the story progresses...I love InuYasha so much though, so I don't really mind the similarities.

Masato is pretty stupid. If Rokodou was getting in his way so bad then he should have just switched the target to another city. Though I would rather recognize this problem as poor writing.

Masato is the new villain and it looks like he will be a recurring character. Great. I like this fiend.

At first, I was wondering if he was going to be some sort of serious villain but nah. For someone who takes living spirits to hell, he's goofy af. And I think I like it better that way in this series.

Just like others, I'm also loving the humor of this show so far. It's very different from Urusei Yatsura and Ranma 1/2 but it still feels like Rumiko Takahashi's classic comedy.

The only thing I don't like is the animation. It looks very bland like a lot of generic modern anime. Though I can't say I hate it either. Sakura is still cute.
