| This series has a pretty good feeling to it, and that cat-spirit is getting cuter! I can't help but feel just a little of disappointment for the lack an actual plot. I'll continue to watch it though, because there's much potential here. I just don't get one thing, why would Reiko bind the spirits name in the book just for Natsume to start releasing them now? I guess she was the one on the wrong here and now her mistakes are being corrected? |
 |
| This episode was touching. I really hope the series get better (: |
| Such a touching episode. I cried. T.T |
Veethorn said: I just don't get one thing, why would Reiko bind the spirits name in the book just for Natsume to start releasing them now? I guess she was the one on the wrong here and now her mistakes are being corrected? I think the key was that Reiko was lonely--she called it the book of friends and they may well have been the only friends she had. It is quite possible that Reiko would have released the names at some point, but Natsume has said that she died young. As the heir to both her book and her powers Natsume has a responsibility to deal with the spirits contained in the book. It seems that if it falls into the wrong hands, the spirits bound to the book might be enslaved to the possessor. |

Maharet said: nice episode. this show has a good feeling This. Kotori said: I find this anime retarded and boring so far; it would be cool if the main character and setting was with his grandma (when young) instead. It seems that you don't get that in this way she is more mysterious character and as such we like her even more and the show itself is more interesting. |

| I shed at a tear this episode. I'm loving this anime so far! |
| nice, just like the manga version but with nice music, the characters are dwepicted well to, cant wait to see how they do the waterless kappa[ spoiler alert possibly] |
| "one truth preveils" never was a bigger lie told in all of manga-land... |
| So far not very much drawn into the anime yet. Let's see if i can get to the 3rd ep :X |
| I was kind of iffy about the first episode, but then this episode...I cried :( That ending was really touching and I love love love the ending song...it has a nice and tranquil feeling to it as well as nostalgic. I don't get why people say it had no plot...well there is the main overall plot with Natsume trying to return the names and most of all, this is a slice-of-life. Many slife-of-life manga/anime is not heavily dependent on a clear or coherent plot. That being said, I will definitely keep watching this! |
| so relaxing |
 |
| now i get it, it kinda reminded me of Jigoku Shoujo, different case in each episode. I love Natsume Yuujinchou more though.. This ep was great, i teared up a bit >_> |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| Dem feels ;_; |
 |
| rewatching, and I already shed some tears in the second episode.. darn how much I love this anime |
| Nastume is such a gentleman. I don't really go for slow anime but this one is so relaxing :) |

| Pretty lovely second episode! This sure has a suiting atmosphere :3 |
 |
| Glad to know I wasn't alone in tearing up as well. The end theme really gets to me! |
| This episode hooked me in for good! The tiny god and the old lady story was so touching, I was crying my eyes out! Worship by people = POWER! Cool concept |
 |
| Another heartwarming episode, the calm atmosphere reminds me of Aria the Animation. |
 |
| Okay that was kind of sad :/ I hope this won't become an episodic thing though. |
 |
| The mood is too calm & the youkai stories aren't quite interesting. puts me to sleep dropped. |

| I'm hoping the Youkai stories start getting more interesting, because these two so far have only been at a 7/10 level at best. The atmosphere and music are grand as always but I'm just a bit underwhelmed. Hoping that the better episodes will come later. Also, why is Natsume so dedicated to these Youkai and to his new job of keeping track of the book? If it were me, it would be hard to get into his role. |
| I'm beginning to really enjoy the characters. |
 |
| It has been awhile since I started an anime but I think I'm going to really like this. Damn. I got teary-eyed when the Dew God disappeared. I have a feeling this anime is gonna make me cry a lot. Good episode. A little boring at some parts but I still liked it. 7.5/10 This series reminds me a lot of the movie Hotarubi no Mori e with all the youkai and stuff. |

| This Episode was So Good. Hana's death and Dew God dissappeared really Touched Me... |

| This episode was so sad ;; For some reason I don't like Nyanko-sensei yet. Hopefully he becomes more likable later on. |
 |
| Damn, that was a sad ending :/. I felt really bad for both Hana and the Dew God. Another great episode though, I'm really enjoying this series so far. |
 |
| What the fuck, second episode and I am overcome with feels yet again. I don't understand, it's so formulaic and slow and yet I'm loving this show. It's just so well-written and cute. |
| Another wonderful episode, small steps are made in the story, but the thing that attracts attention is the love affair between the god of the dew and Mrs. Hana-san. Like every time, again I cried at the end of episode, the merit is of the narrative, the soundtrack and script. |
 |
| Awww, Tsuyukami! I noticed that his seiyuu is no longer in this world That just sad :( |
"Signature removed"   |
| The second episode makes it clear that there is something much deeper in this anime. -- Este segundo episodio deja de manifiesto que en este anime hay algo mucho más profundo. |
| This episode was much better, more like Mushishi in a sense. Dew god was cool :) |
 張大です for 張大勇督察 |
| im a lil teary eyed. this is quite beautiful |
 |
| I am not crying, you are crying, shut up! |
| Some growth on Natsume's part already. What a heartwarming but bittersweet episode ;_; |
| This is the only anime that's giving me such feels just two episodes in, now that's some good writing. |
|
| Really heartwarming. I can't see how people can dislike this. It almost shed a tear... almost... Enjoying this very much. |
| Awww! The Dew God was so cuteeeeee D: I'm glad he got to meet up with Hana-san All these youkai have something sad about them. I feel sorry for their loneliness :( |
| Not sure what to say, this anime is certainly going to be AT LEAST a 9/10 for sure, but I wasn't as happy with this episode as I was with the first one. Kind of felt like it was all over the place for a moment there... Maybe I'm just not aligning myself with what the main idea of each episode is really trying to aim at. Felt that it went from Takeshi and his school friends to some forest to ghost-hunt, to coming across a Dew-god, that people prayed too ... or was it Youkai? to reduce famine and drought in their land? To Takeshi listening to all his back story, to offering to even worship him before he disappeared due to the ... was it the black twin-tailed girl ... who died? The last person to have worshipped him. I found the writing was the hardest thing to keep up with lol. Not sure I'm use to this type of series, but it seems intriguing. The morale of the story at the end was that nothing matters except the one that cares from the heart. I found a lot of writing was just hard to perceive. Like the two types of Youkai, the ones that want the Book of Friends and the ones that want their name returned from the Book of Friends. Shouldn't it have been "Removed" from the Book of Friends. Wording like that misleads my perceptions lol. Other than that it's easily a Great Series so far! :D |
| holy shit... that was so sad D: Didn't expect ;_; Man, don't tell me all those episode ending are going to be so sad. Two lonely yokai were too much to take already :( |
| She worshipped him until the very end, it touched my kokoro. |
 |
| That was simply amazing that ending though my throat got all tight when he said that old woman did everything in her power just to come here T^T |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I like how Madara has different voices depending on the form he's taken. |
 |
| This episode was very good |
