Cool to see Miko's brother getting more on screen time. That doesn't mean she can escape from the daily monster encounters.

If anything, it feels like she's getting more and more distracted by them. Still interesting to see the relationship dynamics between the siblings though. I really hope we get more of them.

Miko goes out with her little brother to get gifts for their mother's birthday. Firstly, the ghost lady at the clothing store and then the ghost guy on the train were just too much. That was nerve-wracking. The guy was really scary. But... was he a good guy or something? I thought what if that ax thing hit Miko... o_O. Miko took the safer route with that one.

And, then the teacher goes on maternity leave. It was sad... because it's her 2nd pregnancy and the brother was still there... Sadge. Miko's trying to ignore them as much as possible but I guess, there are many different types of them out there. Some who are suffering and want to be free... maybe she'll find some friendly ones as well. Who knows? The new teacher is here and boy he looks like a helluva problem.

For some reason, I actually like Miko with Otouto times more than her having to go with her friends. Going shopping together. Ma, that's good enough to change the mood. How Miko asks Kyousuke for his opinion on clothes, and changes her clothes Ma, this is a good episode. It's kind of like a date, lol... Even though they are. I was a little surprised when Kyousuke asked Miko to open the fitting room door, lol. Even though it's sister and bro, still Miko is shy, lol. It was a nice dress and in the end they decided to buy it, As well as wearing it on the way home, I love the moment on the train when Kyousuke sleeps, Miko is a good neechan, really...



Ma, isn't that ghost scary enough? I mean when they back to the home on the train, the axe is pretty scary. I can't imagine that ghost holding a scythe, lol. Hana is really interested in babies, Does it sound clear that sensei's stomach can make a baby sound/moves idk, hhmm interesting. That's right, your affection for the baby is quite strange, can the baby be affected by spirits/ghost? idk.

Since Arai-sensei is on leave due to pregnancy, So there's a substitute teacher in Miko's class, but this guy seems quite dangerous, that eyes, uwaaa.... he's a Tono yoshi-sensei? 遠野善 that guy with pet spirits/ghost? Idk I don't understand the last scene.

Honestly the trip on the train was intense but somehow Miko made it out.
The rest of the episode was nice but the creep returned and he is a teacher no less, i guess things will be hard on Miko for a while.

Sure it must be horrible to do shopping or take the subway when there are ghosts everywhere :S the sensei's story with her dead child was quite sad especially when we saw the baby's ghost, but the more worrying part is that the new teacher is the cat killer! At least the post-credit scene was very emotional, I love this scary but very kind guy

Can't even take a breather, first that change room and then even on their way back on train, poor Miko as usual.

Oh a new Sensei, looking outrightly suspicious though. But wait, isn't this guy the same who was once there to take that stray cat from them.

Uhh, what a train trip. That was creepy.

Nice to see more Kyousuke. I liked the interactions between him and Miko.

I hate that guy who tried to take the cat from Miko earlier. And now he's back...

That post-credit scene with the kitties was very emotional.

Family time with the Yotsuya siblings doing shopping outside and getting a present for their mom, and the ghosts lurking in the changing room and in the train...it's creepy as usual but just slightly.

Most particularly the grim reaper ghost with an axe in the train ride home, he's looking for a target to kill, and that by itself is a lot more scary. To find another ghost in the presence of a person, and getting mentally killed by the grim reaper to the all-clear, Miko is mentally scared shitless, damn.

Arai-sensei's pregnancy leaves Miko and Hana without their favourite teacher for a maternity leave, but the ghost's attachment to it feels uneasy. Especially when she had a miscarriage on their first try, and this one is hoping for the best (and the ghost is a good spirit on this too).

Miko's night walk back home alone really exposes how she should be perceptive of these ghosts. And as terrified as she is, she must face them head on of their desolate situations and issues...except some which need some interpretation like the vending machine ghost.

Since Arai-sensei is on maternity leave, their new homeroom teacher Zen Toono...he's the same person who tried to take the abandoned cat from Miko in an earlier episode. And this guy IS TROUBLE INDUCING...

I really feel sorry for Miko for what happened to her on a train. It was a very scary moment for her. The pregnant sensei part was very impressive. This scene also told and emphasized to Miko that there are really good ghosts that exist though most of them are bad ones.
And that evil-looking guy was backed!

That train part was terrifying, imagine sitting there unable to move and not being sure whether that axe will actually hit her or not. Thou Miko managed to keep herself calm but she wet herself a bit is all. Nothing much lost as no one found out except for her brother misunderstanding it ofcourse.

The sensei scene hit hard in the feels, certainly wasn't expecting a plot twist like that. Also it was nice seeing more of the gangstar looking dude. This anime really knows how to deliver these emotional moments well.

Alright time for shopping with Kyousuke for their mama. Miko does have a same body as her mom, just not at the assets though, and the dress is a perfect fit. Too bad the ghost that looks like the Yami Shibai narrator spoiled it for her, but hey if the saleswoman made it think that Miko and Kyou have "something going on", then I'll take it.

And once again, this anime almost made me cry, with the mysterious hand holding the teacher's preg tummy. And the fact that it was her ill-fated first child hurts a deep more, wished that he meets her sis once she's born. Another good episode with not a lot of culture, a LOT of scary ghosts (that reaper guy was freaking sick), and some heartwarming moments...wait who was that girl in the portrait at the end, is that Touko?!!

Imagine be so into your job that you end haunting a clothes store.

If the train ghost was evil the twins would intervene. So was just exorcising people.

I feel like this anime is getting better with each episode. They throw a lil' bit of progression every episode, learning more about this insane world she can see.

Like in the train I thought there was a change his attack would've worked since she can see them, though it turned out otherwise. Though insane mental strength from Miko, amazing stuffs.

Also whoever decided it's a good idea to add fanservice, I must say he was a genius LUL.

Great episode! Woah... that monster on the train was pretty scary throwing his axe around xD. He killed another monster so he could be good... I suppose? I was scared for sensei's baby there for a moment before I realised that the ghost that kept going to her stomach was in fact her previous baby who unfortunately didn't make it. I like seeing Miko and her brother do stuff around town as well. Miko finally decides to face one of them head on... but doesn't even know how to face that weird monster in the end lol. Zen Toono... Miko's new homeroom teacher is the guy who wanted the cat and is surrounded by ghosts...

Looking forward to the next episode!

I found the first half of the episode to be okay, not too exciting, especially the bit in the store. The train section was a bit more exciting. Was that spirit a bit of a vigilante and exorcising the other spirit from the sleeping woman?

Second half was much better and was very bittersweet overall. The teacher having miscarried her first baby was sad af, but at the very least, it was a benevolent spirit, and probably there to protect its younger sibling. Both cat guys make a return as well. The yakuza type really has had a rough time man, he sadly lost his wife and both of his previous two cats. At least he's not alone on what would be his anniversary, as the cat Miko gave him is a new pal. UNFORTUNATELY for our MC, that sicko from the park is not only back, but as a substitute teacher. Best believe those are the spirits of cats that he's tortured and killed around him. While Miko might need the shrine spirits to counteract all the malevolent spirits around him, it's a whole other story if he tries to physically do something to her.

On a side note, I thought this was gonna be a horror comedy. And make no mistake, I've enjoyed it so far. But while I can see the horror aspect, I don't see a comedy aspect so much as I see A LOT of feels. Between the ep with Miko's dad (ep 4?) and this one with both the teacher and the "yakuza" cat guy, it really can be quite emotional.

The ghosts sure know the best time to show up huh. The contrast between Miko and the clerk's reactions was so amusing. Man that grim reaper in the train sure was scary. The ghost by the vending machine really isn't the best choice for Miko trying to get real with her powers. Miko and Hana though sure ended up having the most unexpected person as their stand in homeroom teacher though. The guy's aura is defo unsettling. Still he is perhaps the first villain we're seen so the next ep's should be interesting. The scary face man really has the most unfortunate of lives though.

Holy cheeseballs the axe ghost. I guess it is hunting down other ghosts possessing people. The woman looked like crap before he pulled the ghost possessing her out. Still creepy though.

I was afraid that her baby just died or something. But it was her miscarriage T_T.

Now that their homeroom teacher is gone, they have this guy as their teacher. The Cat Killer has returned O_O. I guess this is one way for her to confront what's happening on the other side.

Poor guy still being misunderstood.

Miko was on the verge of some character development (finally) but immediately changed her mind cos of that damn confusing ghost. Goddammit. I guess it's still too early for a significant change.

Great episode.

Shopping with Kyousuke was cute, Miko looked great in that outfit.

Slasher on the train must've been terrifying, insane nerves to just hold it in there. Miko has some perseverance.

The scene with the teacher was quite sweet and seeing cat guy at the end was great but the new teacher looks like trouble.

Probably the best episode so far for me due to two aspects: the axe ghost being actually scary and the menacing teacher. The rest was more of the same: fan service, ignoring ghosts (because Miko conviction to confront them didn't even last a minute) and an emotional scene by the end which some may say redeem some episode while in my case it doesn't do enough.

4 epsiodes left, my stance on the anime has sightly improved since the first half, but not enough to understand the hype behind it.
