That was kind of a sad story the old woman told to Shouxue. It also appears that the dead can be anywhere, not just on land. On the other hand, I'm impressed that Shouxue realizes what that old woman's intentions were.

The watery ghost looked like something that came out of a horror movie.

Not a whole lot to say about this episode. The twist was good, but until then, it wasn't the best story we've seen. I'm glad there's more to this story though, and that "the owl" might have something to do with it.

But the most interesting thing is the suffering the Raven Consort goes through because of Niao Lian, and it'll be interesting to see where it goes from here.

The basic once a year the seal become too weak.

I was thinking that was strange the the lady-in-waiting go to fat to extremely thin between day and night, but all made sense in the end.

A bag of blood-soaked dirty. I don't know why, but sounds like a interesting thing to have.

That's a good power, feel if the spell was broken immediately.

The fate of the Raven Consort under the spell of Niao Lian, it's a fate that every consigned consort cannot hide from. And even more so for the mysterious Feng Xiaoyue who wants to enter the Inner Palace to kill Shouxue.

Having gone through such an ordeal, Jiu-jiu taking care of Shouxue while she takes care of the new kid eunuch Yi Siha, Gaojun's association with her is like a taboo that rightfully should not be touched. But him asking Yuyong about the history of the Raven Consort, even though he has every right to know about her, it feels like he is stepping into unpronounced waters on this. And in the same sense, the court lady An Huilan requesting Shouxue to check up on the Magpie Consort Wanlin, whom Huilan is able to hear her voice from drops of water, most prominently at the Quechao Palace.

Huilan, despite hearing Wanlin's voice, she seems disparate about the truth when Shouxue interrogated her, and the fact of the matter is that she thought that she's doing Wanlin a service but disregarded her life altogether to drive her to her death, the karma being hearing her own voice to drive her down to hell. Rather than saving her soul, trapping her ghostly apparition at the lake is the only sane option.

Sure enough, the curse broke free thanks to this "owl", and I would be interested in finding out who this symbol is.

Wasn't expecting that twist at the end. Was wondering why she was so gaunt when Shouxue met her again. Feng Xiao creeps me out but I'm looking forward to what he has in store for the story ahead.

Hongqiao could make a living off of commissions. On another random note, I can't stop thinking that Shouxue looks like Kaguya (from Kaguya-sama: Love is War when she has her hair down.

Interesting episode, especially with a possible new villain in that owl guy. In the meantime we have an old woman asking to have a consort's soul sent to heaven but it ended up being her soul that was not in peace (Shouxue is good at seeing through manipulation).

Hopefully Shouxue will be prepared for the owl guy as she has already seen him in a vision.

That was a nice plot twist. I was also wondering why the attendant suddenly looked so different.

I really Don't know why I love this plain looking show this much. Surprisingly it has depth to it. Atleast this show carries more deeper meaning than most of the shounen animes out there....

Its a good show. Atleast for me

Okay they got with me that twist and that owl guy is eerie but I chuckled at Hongqiao just drawing the lady like it was nothing, now that's some talent right there.

Oh my, Jusetsu has to suffer every time it's a moonless night. Wonder who Guizi is. She seems to know a lot about the pain the Raven Consorts go through. The man that the bird saw is the guy named after the white-haired guy who sought Jusetsu's help. Jusetsu is cute while drinking that medicine. The owl seems to have some beef with Jusetsu or Raven Consort in general.

They've really started to build up this "owl" thing, so I hope it doesn't just resolve itself easily.

That was two different women, right? She lost a lot of weight over the course of a day. Poor consort though, the old lady was selfish. The owl is creepy. I'm also realizing that all the consorts are named after birds which makes sense as to why killing birds is punishable by death.

The lady going from round and mostly healthy looking to sickly was kinda weird, but her turning out to be a ghost makes sense.

That was a twist. At first I was like why does the old lady look so different. Animation error? Lol
