On his way home from school, Natsume spots a white dragon disappearing over the mountain, scattering tiny lights as it goes. From that day, he occasionally sees glimpses of the dragon, a creature said to bring good fortune. Determined to see it more clearly, Natsume sets out to follow the dragon with Nyanko-sensei, who’s eager to catch sight of it too, though it keeps slipping away.

One day, they come across Mr. Mustache looking downcast. When they ask why, Mr. Mustache explains that a beautiful comb he cherished has broken. Since then, Natsume has been thinking about finding a replacement for Mr. Mustache's broken comb. With an idea in mind and some help from the curious members of the Dog Circle, he resumes the search for the white dragon.

Nice looking dragon.

Nyanko-sensei always manages to amuse me. :3

It was fun to see Chobihige a.k.a Mr. Mustache and the rest of the Dog Circle again.

So, that dragon was Chobi all along. Wow. Cool twist.

The dragon was closer than expected.
Still Natsume helped out another ayakashi in trouble which was nice.

I don't see why Natsume doesn't just ride his bike. He may not be able to ride on the mountainsides, but he could cover a lot of distance to catch up if he rode along roads.

Holy shit, Chobi was the beautiful white dragon all along!? What a reveal after 7 seasons. Nice whiskers. He probably stays in that transformed state most of the time and hides his identity from his friends to avoid unwanted attention since dragons are so revered, and people would even flock to catch a glimpse of him, whether to admire his beauty or for a sign of a good omen.

One of the most unexpected yet great episodes.

So, at first he was upset when he realized that they were chasing his scale without knowing that he was a dragon, but then he accepted it as a precious gift, realizing how hard they tried for the sake of a comforting gift for him?

Usually the only import to a mustache in fiction is that of the mustache-twirling villain, only Natsume could make it twist further for a mustache-combing ryuu.

It's like a twist on an old fable but the message is ultimately the same, that friends and loved ones are the true treasure. Pretty common message for this show, s'what makes it so endearing.

I was not expecting that twist with Chobi being that elusive white dragon at the end. That was a very splendid episode!

This was so heartwarming! I love to see natsume and his yokai friends doing the most! The search was a great chance to see more of the countryside too I just love the setting even after so many seasons I’m never tired of the mountains and fields! The ending was so unexpected and fun. I can’t wait until next week as it seems my favourite fishy to the max exorcist guy is making an appearance! 👀

This was cool!

Turns out Chobi was the white dragon all along!

Who could've guessed he was keeping such secret.

I liked seeing Hinoe again but still want to see Benio. Also always love when the dogs gather to "party". Really unexpected twist at the end.

I can't remember the last time a plot twist made me literally scream "What?!" in anime, and I never thought it would happen watching Natsume Yuujinchou.

I did not see it coming at all.

The usual gang is back and Hinoe. She's as beautiful as ever. Natsume ain't the same without them. Beautiful and fun episode. Knew Chobi was the dragon. Looks magnificent though.

Natsume looking for a dragon scale for Chobi, and it turned out that the dragon was always Chobi himself; and we end with this last one very happy for the detail of our protagonist.

Another level about Natsume Yuujinchou. :´ )
