| There's no place safe from these monsters :o Pretty interesting episode following Miko and her friend Hana at that shrine. It's too bad praying won't really save them from the supernatural. And while most of those monsters looks gruesome, there were two of them that took on almost human-like appearances. |
 |
| It's more of a Hana-focused episode if I should say so... Got to see the cheerful nature of Hana and how amazing of a person she is. She's really cute and a really kind human even tho she's scared sometimes but if only she knew what kind of creatures she attracts, she would have been terrified to her bones. But, to fill that role, we've Miko. LOL The shrine and the building, both being haunted by those things and Miko being terrified of them all was quite expected. Another fun episode. |
 |
| Miko might have found a way to get rid of the ghosts but i guess it will be hard to deal with them all like that. Still it's nice to see that there are good ones as well even if they are a scary as well. Hanna was lucky tho, and she should not have gone in that disbanded building that was really dangerous. |
| Hana is such a nice girl. I love her personality so much. Those action scenes were awesome. |

| Hana is really kind to help that little boy to find his dog back, but too bad she had to enter that haunted building so a ghost followed her, the sanctuary events were really scary with that spirit/ghost fight :o impressive episode overall |
 |
| Hana got the best picture, with the spirits photobombing. It will definitely get tons of like on SNS. |
 |
| That was a really good episode and we saw more of Hana this time. The fight at the end was pretty cool. |
  |
| lmao that Studio Ghibli reference was pretty clever. |
 |
| Such a cute cake. But man the ghost that Miko saw at the start sure is the weirdest. Man Hana's breakfast sure was a hearty one. Hana's aura really draws out the worst ones huh. Though it also seems to burn the ghosts as well. Still she sure was brave entering such a building solo. Im glad that nothing bad happened to either Hana or the dog though. The shrine visit sure was fun though due to their contrasting wishes. Being able to maintain calmness in the face of that exorcism sure was impressive of Miko. But man that photo sure captured the perfect moment. Overall an interesting ep that managed to give Hana some much needed expansion both personally and in terms of power while doing the same for Miko in the form of the gods im guessing. Still im curious as to what they actually meant by three times though. |

| Oh poor Hana, even she isn't safe from these creepy ones but thankfully she can't see them, so she doesn't have to suffer the same fate as Miko. That shrine visit somehow turned out to be a bit fruitful, but what's the deal with those shrine maidens? Anyways atleast they have survived yet another encounter. |
 |
| Hana's so sweet, even thou she was scared she still went to save that dog. Now we know that her aura can purify/burn the ghosts and she gets hungry after it. Makes sense why she eats so much. Thou that big thing using her to barbeque those tiny ghosts was hilarious. The later half of this episode was quite tense. They went to visit a shrine and Miko's prayer was immediately answered. They were saved but question is, are those Miko spirits/ghosts are ally or enemy and what could three times mean? Things sure got quite exciting. |
 |
| For too long we've been focusing too much on Miko, now is Hana's turn to get all the screentime this episode. Hana is so impervious to any AND all spirits lurking around her. Her aura influences all spirits of a haunting exorcism effect to all but the strongest spirits who can bear that heavy aura, she's a good BBQ human stand to the bigger spirits eating the small spirits. She's afraid of ghosts, but that's about the extent of her fear that's unlike Miko being threatened by spirits left and right. Hana's deinitely cursed but in a somewhat hilarious subliminal way to do some death scares to Miko. The trip to a shrine for Miko to quell the spirits around Hana, don't even bother trying Miko. The references to Studio Ghibli movies, and horror versions of it, and Hana IS JUST TOO GOOD. The fight between the smaller spirit gods against the big spirit, and that's about the extent of the semblance of action you're gonna get out of this show. We all need a kindred spirit like Hana who does all the BTS exorcism. |
 |
| so Hana's cursed technique is when she eats food, her cursed energy will increase and her cursed energy forms like a shield or aura that surrounds her body, hence the weak cursed spirits gets killed when they go near it. Interesting... Also, the legendary pokemon defeated the special grade cursed spirit, the fight scene was good. The legendary pokemon is OP as hell, I thought special grade cursed spirits are the strongest and most powerful spirits but I guess legendary pokemons is much more stronger and powerful than them. |

| I really enjoyed this episode and this surreal fight ! The demon using hana as a gas cooker was kinda funny but creepy haha.  For the pastry post-ending scene, I really tough it was a price issue and not a demon one haha. |
  ______________【 A W C 】 【 M u s i c 】______________ |
| I really liked this episode. It showed us Hana's part of personal life as well as her kind natured big sis personality. Miko finding that huge Monster behind Hana and going to a shrine with her to get her cleansed, and praying for protection was well depicted. Shrine maidens vs the life eater was amazing and the gross looking shrine god was also so cool. i hope the next episodes also have story like this as its making this show even more interesting |
| I must admit that this episode surprised me a lot for the narrative contents, especially as regards the horror part and for what happens in the final part, wow! I really enjoyed all that action and it almost made me forget the fanservice that was glimpsed before. I greatly appreciated that the narrative focused on the character of Hana. Very good drawings and animations, excellent chara of the monsters seen in this episode. Can't wait to see the next episode. |
 |
| No wonder Hana is having such a healthy appetite. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Damn, that spirit was a crafty monstrous one. I did not expect to fry the other spirits on Hana's aura and eat them. Heaven's forbid other spirits learn the delicacy of cooked meals. xD Well, Miko that was quite the spectacle you got to watch. Who needs Ghibli films when you can watch a full on action movie spectacle right in front of you? Can someone give some background on what the fox spirit meant by "Three times"? I assumed it wanted Miko to give either three times the offering or ring the bell thrice or something but the episode kinda just ended there. Great episode on the whole, every week I love the OP more and more. |
 |
| Hana saving that dog is very good, although that Nasty One using her as a stove to cook some little ghosts is pretty funny. And I like that when Miko prayed, the spiritual beings actually shows up and fought the Nasty One. Lets hope that what they did to Miko chan helps her unsee the ghosts for the time being. Also worth noting is how they put Miko's perspective in the end of how she see things compared to Hana. Those ghosts' faces are funny. |
 |
| I'd like to learn more about those things at the shrine. Maybe Miko found some solution to her problem, but it seems she is too afraid of them now to investigate it further. And "three times" it said? No idea what to think about it. It's kinda shame that Miko didn't see that ghost grilling small ones over Hana. It might've been useful information for her in the future. Right now she is just trying to run or defend from them. She doesn't try to understand the things she is seeing, which sounds like a bad way to go about this problem. |

| Damn Hana-chan, you watched too many Ghibli films lol. |
| I thought this episode is just a filler about the other girl, but I was pleasantly suprised when the spirit fight took place. I am just a bit confused about Mierukos attitude towards the spirits that saved her, but it is probably understandable that she would be apprehensive about them too, yet I would expect a little more of a relief when she know she asked the shrine to save her. "3 times" ... what does this mean I - and everybody else I guess - wonders. I think it might concern some number of times they are able to save her? Maybe? Or that she has to come 3 times to the shrine and pray to repay the favor? This anime is getting progressively more interesting every time. Also love the golden colours for the spirits, they look ancient and kinda disturbing. Those little ones were not very strong. |
| ‘It may be admitted that if it were possible for us to have so deep an insight into a human's way of thinking, as it shows itself both through inner and outer actions, that every, even the least incentive to these actions and all external occasions which affect them, were so known to us, then his future conduct could be predicted as certainly as the appearance of a solar or a lunar eclipse.’ Critique of Practical Reason, p. 230 of the Rosenkranz. |
| Lmao this episode was actually pretty entertaining which surprised me a little tbh. The idea of the big fuck off spirit frying up little dudes for a snack on Hana's aura is a good meme. Plus the battle scene with the heavenly spirits or whatever was also really great. Surely they have some relevance to whatever little bit of plot this series has. |
| This kinda marks the end of the standalone episodes, expect a more connected episodes from now on. |
 |
| I wanna see those Mibli movies too! |
 |
| Another wonderful episode. Unsure why, but i liked Miko's facial expression and reaction when her 500 yen bounced out the collection thing. Got to love the Mibli films :D |
| The line below is True. The line above is False. |
| The Gods helped her but at what cost. The big god said "Three times" when over her. So that interesting. I think this is a good step in direction of where this story is going. Great episode overall though. |

| I wonder if the "three times" stuff will come into play later as it's currently the only engaging part to me about this show. |

| Hana eat this crepes at the morning crazy haha lol she ha strong aura and wow she saved a dog. Something on the shrine was spawned but idk what。 |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| This was the episode I was most looking forward to get adapted. I already liked the shrine maidens in the manga that they are more scary, but I like them even more now that they made them cuter. I really would watch "The Dog Returns" |
 |
ponygobyebye said: I haven't read the manga so I have no context, but I'm assuming "three times" means that's how many times those spirits at the shrine will help Miko That's what I understood from it too. Honestly I was kinda sad when the little shrine maidens got destroyed, thought that Miko killed off the shrine maidens/god over her request when they were just trying to help her :( Glad that wasn't the case. Hopefully they show up again! |
| Well done episode. The contrast between the suspenseful animation and Hana's cute voice made it a very interesting story. The animation was top notch and Hondo's voice is amazingly cute and fits so well with Hana's character. |
| barbeque anyone?? |
 |
this is getting more dangerous hahahaha a spiritual fight |

| Jeez, Hana's breakfast is bigger than her boobs.. no wonder she is overgrown in that department ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) First segment was pretty interesting with Hana's light hearted character. That ghost that was following her around was literally barbecuing little ghosts in Hana's aura.. Never thought this would become a thing. The final part was incredible though. Finally some progression on this whole spirit business. Miko-chan asking at the shrine to take care of the ghost that is following Hana... Honestly felt that the ghost was too powerful for the spirit shrine maiden, but I am actually amazed at what happened after. I am curious to see how often we're going to see this happen again and what does "Three times" mean? I really need to continue with the manga. |
 |
Hana was used by the big monster to cook the little monsters lol Also, Miko's face when the little monsters with the mask have lost against the big one ahah I love her expressions.  So, the story will begin from next episode. |
