| That was a great episode! It surpassed all my hopes and expectations. Natori at the end though, that was something that was going to happen sooner or later. I know loads of people seem to think that Natori may betray Natsume, but really, Natori's just extremely talented at coming across somewhat concieted, smug and two-faced - when as a matter of fact it's plain to the eye that he's actually a good person. He looks out for Natsume, and he's all too aware that it is far, far too easy to get in it above your head when it comes to the world of Youkai. My opinion is that there will be, yes, a confrontation of sorts, but an all-rounded well-meaning one. Next episode looks great, I can already see the character development there.... looking forward to next week. |
| That ending was a bit ominous, but everything else worked out nicely. |
 |
| Is it just me or is there something off about the direction of the episodes in this season? The camerawork is awkward and the scenes don't blend in well together. |
 |
| Thanks Natsume Yuujinchou. I didn't need these feels today. |
 |
| I really don't like Natori's tone of voice in the end there...it sounded a bit threatening, and directed towards Natsume. I do find it hard to believe that Natori doesn't know about the Book of Friends yet, though, seeing as like every youkai knows about it. Am I the only one who doesn't trust Natori? I never have, and I want to, but somethings I just can't get past. I still want to know what the deal with the lizard is. Went back and read through all the comments...lots of people thinking Natori will take it in an effort to help Natsume. I don't know about that :/ Sometimes he seems nice, but others I'm not so sure if he really has the best intentions towards Natsume. Seems like he doesn't think Natsume is competent enough, or he just doesn't want to believe Natsume is powerful in his own way. |

| I guess that's a bit sad end :( At least Takuma and his daughter are happy together now Natori please don't :( Next episode, it's Natsume's 2 besties time! |
"Signature removed"   |
| AHHHH NATORIIIII NOOOOOO |
| Definitely the best episode of the season so far, couldn't help but tear up when the Yokai was trying to convince Takuma to let him be by his side again even though Takuma couldn't hear or see it when it was right in front of him. The flashback of the last time he was able to see them was pretty sad as well :( As for the ending, they did my Natori look a bit suspicious but that's probably just to mess with people. I doubt the guy has bad intentions, especially with Natsume who seems to be his closest friend. |
 |
| Awwwh in the end they just wanted to be by their master's side.. Aww shit. Looks like Natori's onto him!!! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| These two double episodes were so good! So he really didn't hear about the book of friends, huh? I think Natori is ordering Urihime for the sake of Natsume but it might make things worse. Why do I think Hiiragi will play a part later in the story because she owes Natsume and the only one of the three familiars who seems to have a soft spot for Natsume. Also, Taki's forbidden circle go mentioned yet again. I don't want the clans to know that she knows such a technique. 5/5 |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| What a sad one. The youkai wanted to be useful, but he can't hear or see them anymore. Natori, don't mess with the yuujinchou! |
 |
| Seeing the familiar desperately trying to earn Takuma's approval was quite tear-jerking. Even when the youkai are weirdly shaped or look funny, their purest feelings are expressed with sincere clarity. I'm definitely interested in what will happen if Natori discovers the Book of Friends. Given his nature, I think he might want to take it out of concern for Natsume rather than self-interest. The way that Natsume & Natori has gotten closer through the seasons while still having that unspoken distance has certainly led to this. |
 |
| Welp, so much for all that talk about "changing". So Natori was trash all along? Maybe Hiiragi will set him straight if he tries something, since she likes Natsume quite a bit and wants her master to become a better person. As for the main story, I honestly couldn't care less. They made that smiley face youkai so creepy during these two episodes, that it was hard to empathize with him enough to hit me in the feels. |
| Excellent episode. Although that was sad so my feels hit again ;_; |
Raichi_ said: I have had less than zero trust in Natori since day 1. Same. I don't know why, he just seems to lack the absolute sincerity Natsume has. Maybe because he's an actor that can seem vane at times and he (as implied?) hates yokai? He's also somewhat allied with Matoba who seems ready to abuse yokai with no heaitation. I really hope none of the exorcists get their hands on the book of friends. It's best of with Natsume and Madara |
| L had a poster of Norman in his room |
| I just hope Natori won't need to steal the Book of friends from Natsume (that cliffhanger was... O:), I can see a war coming. Let's hope it won't come true... and if it were to come true, I'm looking forward if Natsume and Natori's friendship will last. I'm giddy just thinking about what's next! |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Yet another bittersweet episode. Natori is up to no good? Don't betray Natsume. :( |

Kashirou said: I teared up here. Some solid voice acting. Damn this show knows how to give these emotional punches.  This was the sadest moment for me. When one of yokai stand in front of Takuma-san who even can't see him or hear him... They've been through so much together, they were friends. And now this yokai can't even say last goodbye to his friend. It's sad. About episode end. I really don't understand why so many people don't like Natori. Of course I understand that if I like someone it's not like everyone should like him too, but I noticed that really many people don't like Natori. I didn't read manga, may be there are some bad things about this character..? Anyway, for me Natori is a good boy who decerved if not more fans, then more love at least... And I don't believe that he will betray Natsume, because he really likes him and considers him his friend. Natori just uses another methods in fights with yokai, which are not so kind sometimes as Natsume's methodes, but when these two fight together, Natori never mind to use Natsume's kind methode. This is just a proof that Natori isnt'n bad, he just use his own way to work with yokai. I think if Natori and Natsume would work together as partners, Natori would soon act as Natsume :) |
