I find it somewhat preposterous that so many youkai were going to feast on 2-3 small girls. That's like.. Stupid.
Who wouldn't feast on girls, especially if they're in the onsen and wearing only like, a towel xD

Isn't like a confirmed fact that all youkai/demons are horny as s***? :P

I'd imagine it'd be pretty hard to get any when almost every Youkai looks completely different, so inter-breeding seems virtually impossible.

As others have said, a semi-explanation comes in the upcoming episodes. For now, I'll just say that being the Grandson of Nurarihyon, wouldn't you at least expect basic sword knowledge?
Seeing how he usually acts, no, I wouldn't expect him to know the basics of wielding a sword.

Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

Nice ending, despite this being another set-up episode. Rikuo's sudden change was sort of abrupt, but I'm glad it happened all the same.

This is a good thing. The less training arcs, the better.

Damn I thought this episode would animate the fight with day rikuo, dumb cliffhanger >.< Well at least it's all great that most people finally changed their opinions of day rikuo, coz from my memories of the manga day rikuo isn't supposed to be as wimpy, though I guess this serves to juxtapose his transformation into his badass night self.

Anyone get the feeling that day rikuo going badass is like tohno shiki from tsukihime?

Average episode, only redeemed in the end with Rikuo finally acting like a legit main character, granted I wasnt expecting he'd be skilled, I was just expecting a cheesy interception where he is the on that gets stab, and well you know the scenario.

It is true he is the grandson, so he must at least have some instinct in his human form. I really gotta read the manga, I get the feeling the anime doenst do Rikuo justice, plus I find his voice annoying.

That's all bullshit. It's just that you never mess with a mans harem. He will go all Rambo on your ass.

It was a nice episode though. Decent developments. But i wonder how long his cool self will beat everyone up easily. The master of this guys seems strong but i don't think he really wants to kill Rikuo, This whole thing seems more like wanting to see if his capable for his loyality.

Whoa, when did day!Nikuo become so cool? :P And where'd he get that sword!?

Yuki-onna is disappointingly weak, damn. FFS why can't there be female side characters who don't have to be rescued by the main male char? *tears hair out*

^ it's not like when he turns into Yokai form, Rikuo's body gets taken over body another soul or anything... The two are one and the same being. Think of it like alternate personas. Technically, anything Yokai Rikuo can do, the human form has the potential to do as well.
The sword he always has. It's not like he pulls it out of nowhere when he transforms. It's actually a very important in future stories:

So where does he keep it if he always has it on him? Show me a screenshot or scene from the manga, otherwise I won't be convinced that this isn't random and nonsensical. And if he always has it on him, wouldn't people notice and ask about it?

Rikuo is a Nurarihyon type Youkai. You will later find out what their ability is.

Almost an entire episode all about boring youkai talking only the last couple minutes are worth watching. I really don't understand why there is such a character as Kiyojyuji was needed in a series like this. I mean what else could be more annoying than seeing him bragging the whole fucking episode about fucking boring stuff. And Yuki-onna being so useless in this episode does help it either, sigh.

I'll tell you what. Shima and Kana. I just can't stand it when they're on the screen, with their freakin' ridiculous, idiotic jealousy. But they're also in the manga so I somehow bear it. I hope their roles will decrease in later story.


Oh, and about the episode. 3 out of 5. The manly action of Rikuo saved the day. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who rationally thinks that Rikuo does NOT pull his sword out from nothing. I was also thinking where he hides it when in school or - on trips - but I think he is just a little liar ;p He says he detests yokai and so on, but he actually realizes who he is and, of course, has some decent skills. And knows how to hide it from his friends.

Starting to get slightly bored of this series. But hopefully it will improve as it goes on.

The best bit of the whole episode was the preview in Night-Rikuo's voice. ~__~

I don't really like how they are doing the anime, the manga is 100x better, and is really annoying reading some comments here about day Rikou, he's clearly one of the best characters in the manga, but I hate how the anime makes him annoying.

I don't think day Rikuo is annoying in the anime. In fact, I love him just as much as yokai Rikuo.

Well, in the end it's one person. Just with two different appearances and extra abilities, that's all. But I don't think he's annoying in day form. And I don't see any aberrations from the manga. For now, at least. Hope it stays this way.

This is a moment I've been wishing for.
Day Rikuo finally shows his hero side

How could I make my signature appear automatically?
There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list
I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.

I had a feeling he always had the prowess of his demon side even in human form but he's supressing it.
