Yea! Natori appears again! It's great to see Natsume and Natori working together. I certainly hope I can see more of that. However, since there are only 2 more episodes of Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou left, I doubt that will happen. The next episode is about Natsume and a little boy so it's for certain that there will be no Natori. I can only place my hope on the last episode.It's so sad that Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou is ending soon! SummaryOne day, Natsume goes grocery shopping with Toukou-san. On their way home, Natsume sees a bird youkai flying across the sky. The bird youkai seems to be in trouble and Natsume decides to give chase. Natsume reaches the forest where the bird youkai is. However, before he can do anything, a big youkai suddenly appears and eats up the bird youkai. The next moment, Hiiragi and Natori also appear. According to Natori, lately, the big youkai has been eating the other youkai in the forest and it's his job is to catch it. Natori asks Natsume to help hin out in this job and he also invites Natsume to a gathering of conjurers the next evening. Natsume decides to go to the gathering as he feels that he might be able to find more people like himself there and it may also be the perfect place for him to figure out what he is capable of.The next day, on his way to the gathering, Natsume bumps into 2 youkai. They seem to have evil intentions and Natori appears in time to scare them off. Hiiragi then draws a ideogram, which can repel demons, on Natsume's left arm. It's usually written directly on the heart but since Natsume refuses to strip, she has to draw it on his left arm.At the place of the gathering, Natsume is surprised to see many youkai and a few humans. They are chatting and drinking wine. Natori advises Natsume to wear a mask to hide his identity. However, Natori is not doing likewise as he is already very famous as a celebrity and as an exorcist. While they are chatting, the lizard in Natori's body start moving around. Nyanko-sensei comments that the lizard never fails to be creepy. Natori replies that he's used to it but he finds the fact that the lizard never goes to his left leg more creepy.After Natori finishes helping Natsume wear the mask, Nanase-san, secretary of Matoba the exorcist, enters the gathering hall. Nanase-san seems to know Reiko and she asks Natsume about her. Nanase-san reveals that she hears about Reiko from the youkai. According to them, Reiko is very beautiful and strong. Nanase-san tells Natsume that he needs not fight alone anymore. This makes Natsume wonder if he can truly believe in others. Nanase-san then turns to Natori and asks him about the big youkai. She throws a demon-sealing pot to Natori and wishes him good luck in catching that big youkai.Natsume is still thinking about the bird youkai. He asks Natori to teach him how to use paper dolls to catch that big youkai. Even though it's Natsume's first try, he manages to get the paper doll to move. The paper doll initially flies out of the window but after a short while, it flies back in. This means that the big youkai is in the building. Natsume and Natori immediately chase after the paper doll. Hiiragi manages to get to the big youkai first but the big youkai proves to be too strong for her. Natsume uses his body to shield her. Without warning, the big youkai bites Natsume. Thankfully, Natsume is not hurt as the big youkai bites his left arm, which has the ideogram. Natsume immediately throws a powerful punch at the big youkai. The big youkai escapes and Nyanko-sensei transforms into his majestic form and gives chase. While Nyanko-sensei is chasing after the big youkai, Natsume and Natori prepares the ritual to seal the big youkai. With the powers of Natsume and Natori, they manage to seal the big youkai into the pot, given by Nanase-san.While walking back to the building, the pot grows wings and flies to Nanase-san. She reveals that she wants the big youkai to be her servant. She has tried to use the bird youkai as a bait to catch it but attempt failed. Natsume is very angry that she used her own servant as a bait. Nanase-san comments that youkai are evil and advises Natsume not to let youkai into his heart. She also insists that she's doing good by exterminating youkai which harm humans. Hearing that, Natsume feels depressed and decides not to tell anyone about the 'Book of Friends' as he fears that they may use it for evil. Knowing that Natsume is feeling down, Natori pats his head gently and asks him to go back together.The next day, Natsume and Natori bid farewell. Another difficult job is awaiting Natori and he looks troubled. As for Natsume, he will soon find himself getting caught in between a little boy and a saber-holding youkai.PicturesThe bird youkaiThe map to the gatheringHiigari tries to get Natsume to strip but gets punched instead!
