Hmm, I find it interesting to show more how the justice of the Underworld works in this show. We got a character like Shihou with a big influence.

The episode itself also gave a more tense feeling than some of the others if you ask me.

Quite honestly one of my favorite episodes of the season. Interesting with the change of pace from helping yokai to now introducing a mystery with Ashiya. As a manga reader, I am excited for what is to come in the next episode.

It was nice seeing how much Abeno cared for Ashiya when he saw Ashiya was getting hurt. And the cute little interaction between Abeno and the Justice complaining about Ashiya!!

This show never fails to make me feel all warm inside, but I really am excited for the rest of this season.

Moja captured by the new character because they stole something?

Main guy thought it was by mistake because of the thief looks like Moja. It was indeed captured by mistake, but was going to capture main guy using the name of crime.

Oh, the new character simply doesn't like humans. His youkai form, crow, has dark aura and main guy cannot bear it.

Shimono-san's character took both of them away from main guy. He agrees with that human hater said and only told him to get main guy away instead of kill him.

Field trip next.

The executive is the only character who's not funny.

I love the way the Legislator was disappointed when Hanae didn't scream 'eh----!!' after he transformed.

Abeno and Hanae's relationship is kind of similar to the relationship between the two main characters of a manhua called 'Too Close'.

Mononokean, the room, is one of my favourite characters.

I am surprised that a character played by Shimono Hiro actually solved a problem.

Hanae can still continue being cute even after that scene with the executive. He thought his mum was a Youkai. hahaha

I feel like the end scene is foreshadowing something interesting.

Good episode, though I feel sorry for the main char, he's doing nothing wrong but getting blamed.

Pretty tense episode. The Executive guy give the scary impression. I totally did not expect this coming from a lighthearted anime as this is, but well. Seems like things are getting interesting.

Honestly, I really enjoyed this episode, even though the Executive made me SO SO MAD. I was sitting there like "HOW DO I LANCE A SPEAR THROUGH HIM?!" But the interactions between the other characters was really refreshing! I hope to pick up the manga soon :3

Intense episode, the executive had a really oppressive aura, liked a lot his design reminds me of Hisoka and Piedmon.

Really felt like slapping the executive across the face this whole episode tbh
Hanae always gets blamed for things out of his control
Pretty sure next episode will be more lighthearted

Oh...just you wait. >:) The manga gets REALLY deep and hopefully we'll get to see some of the mysteries that are introduced in the manga this season!

Woah, this episode was intense. I didn't expect something like that from a comedy show that overflows with cuteness. Can't wait to see more!~

Justice is right Ashiya is very noisy but so long as they don't have to listen to him the youkai don't have to kill him

You said that, but the guy voice him is same one who voice Hakutaku from Hozuki no Reitetsu. Not to mention both look quite similar.

And as I recall, Hakutaku is just stupid and silly.

if all school teach Math, then why weren't all people good at Math?

same goes to religion, except Math doesn't teach you life. ;)

GOD, this episode was so cool. Ashiya finding he has the same powers as Abeno. And when he controlled Yahiko and both of yokai were afraid of him, that broke my heart.

Why no one is talking about the justice commenting about Ashiya and Abeno being an ODD COUPLE!!! And abeno didn't deny it!!

Guess its just me who's having yaoi ideas lol

kind of a little odd that "the justice" intentionally falsely imprisoned someone...

good to see that power by abeno again, even though it was only temporary. was the executive so strong that he was able to withstand it or did abeno hold back? speaking of power, and now that ashiya is thinking about aquiring that power himself, i wonder if we'll see the power he revealed back in his first trip to the underworld when he encountered that thief fuzzy-look-alike yokai

the executive seems a bit op. i wonder what crawled up his butt to make him hate humans

never being able to return to the underworld doesn't seem like all that harsh of a resolution. an easy sacrifice to avoid further conflict with the executive. though, obviously, this is not the end of the conflict

Diiickkk!! He even has his tie and kimono and everything, he tries to do his best, what do you want from Ashiya, homo?

High court tiger should bring down his ministery.

And Moja is the best boy, i love him so much.
