A cliffhanger?! In Natsume Yuujinchou?! ._.
At any rate, great episode. Taki seems like a nice character. She's got a cool hat.

Best part:
Taki (looking at Nyanko-sensei): M... M...
Natsume: Monster?
Taki: MEGA-CUUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111

I was surprised when the ending started playing because the episode went by so fast and I never expected there to be a cliffhanger. I like the new girl who was introduced, she's cute and likes cute things. Nyanko-sensei catching birds in order to walk on air was hilarious.

An arc in my Natsume Yuujinchou?? No way..

Seriously, it was really good. Loved the interactions with Natsume and Tooru.

I approve if there's romance going between them or even a love triangle. :D

Nyanko-sensei's facial expressions are so hilarious esp. when he got hugged and when he slipped with his funny voice XD

Off to the next ep right away..

Cliffhanger....NOOOOOOOOO! I have to pack up my computer and check out of the timeshare tomorrow morning so I'll have to wait 18 hours to see what happens.....

Like the majority, I want Taki to stick around as well (unless we can bring Reiko back which would be awesome...).
Please don't feed the trolls!
In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student

Anyone else notice how much Taki resembles Reiko?

I was thinking the same thing. When I first saw her during the classroom scene I actually thought Reiko had com to life.

Man that youkai is creepy...the one that they have to find. O_O And first episode that't continuous! I had a feeling when half way through, the story had not progressed much. It sucks to be cursed and then knowing that you can't say other people's names otherwise they'll die too. Poor Taki. I agree that Natsume and Taki would make a cute couple ^^ I also like how she thinks Nyanko-sensei is cute.

Think that was our first time having such an intense cliffhanger.

I like this new girl. I'd ship them. Not really sure anymore. I actually grew closer to Sasada during her short and few appearances.

Pleasant as an episode, once again, the story is deep and well-tuned script with the plot to show perfectly the feelings and emotions that arise from the story. Nyanko-sensei, found an admirer, LOL!

Natsume's nightmare scared the shit out of me. When he opened the window and it was pitch black; terrifying.

For a moment there with the crop circles, I was expecting this series to take a bizarre turn and reveal Taki to be an alien.

Taki's past sounds sad af. Just having fun making circles only for a giant youkai to tell her she only has 360 days left to live unless she finds him. To make matters worse, she inadvertently cursed Natsume and several others as well.

That cliffhanger; just when I thought I was ready to go to bed.

Great episode. Nice to see the series spicing up the episodic formula. 9/10

A cliffhanger for once... that girl resembles Reiko so much and for the first time I am actually kind of creeped out of a Yokai. Hope it ends well. That curse isn’t fair.

Ah finally an interesting new character that doesn't feel oddly creepy and with a backstory that makes sense. Hope she stays around.
I don't remember if it's the 1st time someone actually makes a fuss over Nyanko-sensei but that was funny.
I don't know why but I just feel like her introduction felt more natural than the others before fro some reason... not the beginning itself with Natsume's friends dragging him to her class but after that.

That's a hell of a curse she got on herself though :/

Really enjoying these last 2, 3 episodes. Wasn't expecting a cliffhanger but I do appreciate some sort of plot continuity from this show once in a while. Let's see how they'll go from here :3

"In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH

Waht a good episode through and through, subversion of expectations, worldbuilding, signs of Takashi's development, Nyanko-sensei being himself and more. The only downside was Takashi's silly friend who didn't really serve to lighten up the tension as he was just pure cringe.

Very interesting episode with a surprising cliffhanger.

That sparrow part was priceless. Lol at Nyanko-sensei. xD

Hehe. Taki fell in love with Nyanko-sensei. Well, she's just like me. We both love cute and fluffy things.

"Nom nom." He looks so cute every time he eats.

Now that I am rewatching this series seeing this episode made me remember how hard I shipped Natsume and Taki at that time I first seen it. It is sad that the mangaka of this series doesn't want the story to have a romantic overtone.
