This is a nice adventure-style episode. I am really glad to see how lately the animation quality seems to be relatively good. I guess the producers save the money they didn't use in the early episodes and use it in these episodes. The storyline is also interesting because it delves into some Japanese mythology, particularly that of youkai and tsukumogami. At times like this I wish I had taken Japanese mythology class so I can recognise some of the creatures that are shown in this episode. This episode also has some amusing comic scenes. One stand out moment was when a mob of people chase two characters and they keep asking the characters to come back. I always find this hilarious because do the mobs seriously think the person being chased will come back and let himself get beaten to pulp?
