Preliminary (8/24 eps)
I'm giving Yashahime a harsh review, call it biased, I don't care. This review will contain spoilers.

Yashahime went back and forth from being decent. I love the girls and their dynamic, which is very different from what I expected it to be. Moroha is charming and feral. Towa is earnest and soft, which is the opposite vibe I got from her design. Setsuna is straight laced and serious like her father, which wasn't the vibe from her design, but I actually liked being surprised.

The cameos from other characters were fun and I liked how even not knowing their parents, the girls are intertwined in Kagome's family one way or another. I loved that they were all connected that way, whether they realized it or not.

The story definitely has pacing issues, trying to lengthen its run time with stories of hunting down demons that are less interesting than what everyone is here for: to find out what happened to the girls' parents. While I didn't watch far enough to uncover this true, news has spread down the grapevine that a certain dog demon is confirmed to have groomed and performed pedophilic actions is neither okay nor acceptable, even in fiction, in my opinion.

Yashahime had a lot of potential as an enjoyable show where you can just turn your brain off and relax, but I can't even do that now. Total score is a 1: do better Japan, pedophilia is not okay in any context.
