Next mission and the teacher's talk making them late. lol @ that classmate with eyes shut for the safe. Eel youkai asks them for a ring. Wow, main guy really found the ring soon!

He thinks about the feelings of both human and youkai... but there's bad things to tell about youkai, too, while a way to return the ring. The owner of the ring is eel saler, so the youkai was eel... They accidentally met her and conflict between telling about the youkai or not. So "Manjirou" was her husband becoming eel. Wow @ the end.

ED w. all characters including today's eel youkai.

The girl from ep.4 and fox youkai next.

Man this episode got me a little teary eyed, but that ending was a curve, "Found You" damn that gave me some serious chills.

ZENKO comes back next week! HYPED Also I liked in the preview where Fuzzy was just looking at a butterfly...a Fuzzy plush is a necessity in life right now haha.

That cliffhanger...

One of the strangest looking youkai I've seen from the series as well but the storytelling remains quite well done, even after I've read the manga for this adaptation so far.

This ep was both hilarious and beautiful, great to see Abeno loosening up thanks to Ashiya.That ring scene was heart wrenching.

Also Fusshi is the absolute best lol

Eel yokai asks to find a grannies ring and it turns out he's her husband who died :O
Abeno realizes he's alsio human XD and tries once more to convince the granny and it works.
Now a yokai found them.

I was surprised that Ashiya got surprised to hear Manjirou was the grandma's husband? It seemed pretty obvious considering it was a ring, lol. It's so nice to see Ashiya becoming more and more caring about both yokais and the humans they are linked to. His talent to find metal things was pretty cute too.

That ending though, Abeno got really freaked. What could it be? It makes me think it could be the fox, but in the preview he looked harmless.

NEVER assume that a fox is harmless in Japanese media. They can be majorly powerful spirits, and potentially very dangerous... if they want to be.

True... But he looked sort of friendly after that spooky 'Found you!' it sort of feels out of place. Also the ending or opening [i don't remember which one] shows him with the girl from the mask episode, so I am not sure what to make of it.

This was such a cute episode! (Though, I've thought that after like every episode so far..)

I'm really liking this series, probably more than I liked Natsume Yuujinchou!

Ashiya got both more adorable and MYSTERIOUS this episode. The metal detecting power and question of why he can see the Youkai. I also loved the drama with Abeno and telling humans about Youkai, both Abeno and Ashiya had good points and went a long way to show how much he actually cares! I don't think I've had a single complaint about this series so far! :)

Fusshi!!!

That eel got a cute face

That grandpa accepting the ring made me teary-eyed. Abeno finally got appreciated for once (it seemed like he had bad history with humans before)
The eel grandpa hugging his wife despite knowing she can't see him, another strong scene

My favorite episode so far, and the next one seems promising, too.

Dude broke every rule in his visit too the underworld, except for the dress code part. A lot happened but I don't have much too say about this episode actually, it was good, and I'm happy with the results of their little task. Ending cliffhanger and stuff was creepy and caught me completely off guard.

Manjiro has a freaking adorable face but a fucking disgusting snake body. I just saw a snake in our backyard the other day and I'm still traumatized by it. I hate snakes, I don't want them dead but I don't want to be near them, I'm sure they don't want to be near me or any other human for that matter.

That "mitsuketta!" (見つけた,) at the end was kind of freaky.

Literally just realized the ending is Ashiya-kun and Abeno-san singing and in the beginning when it pans out over their faces, it does it in synchronization with their parts lol

Not too bad of an episode, but nothing great either. Loved Manjiro though, that eel is adorable XD Glad everything worked out of them in the end with returning the ring. I'm more interested in what that was at the end ... who was it that got that reaction out of Abeno?! :O

I still don't see the need for the term "Morose". He's a reasonable employer, though with a stupid hair.

We need to see more of classmeitos, there's a strong funny presence in the classroom.
