Not going to lie, their teacher still gives me some creepy vibes just by his presence in the classroom.

Poor Hana wasn't feeling well this episode but Miko being the good friend that she is helps her. Overall, I found this episode entertaining and visually, I think Miko looks kinda cute with a ponytail hairstyle.

Man... Zen sensei is too fricking scary. Every girl is fond of him but only if they knew what Miko sees. Hana as usual is hungry as ever but that's the thing that rescues Miko from the trouble she's always in. LOL. Nice to see more of Yuria in this show and she's getting involved more and more with her new friends but still scared of Miko.

So, those divine creatures gave Miko protection just for a no. of time and the second one was just a waste. Too bad. What's gonna happen when she runs out of protection? Maybe go back to the shrine and renew the monster insurance with 500 yen?

Well it's kinda obvious that the hobby of the teacher is a really bad one.
It's also obvious that Miko won't be able to handle this situation much longer with the teacher around and all.
There is also the question about the protection she got will it be a temporal thing or will she be able to learn something from this that protects her for a long time.

Yuria's misunderstandings are always so amusing.

Hana and her legendary appetite. I can't help but laugh at her.

Again, that teacher is just so creepy. I hate the fact that he's killing those poor cats. For me, it's making difficult to watch this.

Just can't trust this sensei, and looks like he doesn't trust anyone too.

Lucky Miko there, thanks to Hana atleast she got herself out of that class lol. But damn those shrine maidens again coming to rescue, what was she pointing there? Just one more chance maybe.

They're teasing a lot about the teacher and that's sure creepy, he has so many evil ghosts around him that it is draining Hana's positive energy and making her hungry, that damn Kid's ghost trap during the park scene was really tense at least she got the help of the spirit but she only has one usage left and then she will get no help anymore... that post-credit scene wow I'm happy that these girls saved this kitten without even knowing, how can you do something like that to a poor cute little cat T_T it makes me genuinely sad because it reminds me how this happens for real

The teacher Zen Toono is still TOO CREEPY, his soul embellished by all of the cat demon spirits who must've murdered any and all cats along his path.

Back in school, Hana is only thinking of eating but a glutton (obviously because of Zen), and Miko reaffirms the love because it helps keep both Zen and the spirits off of her in any situation. Sad that the girls being in their normalcy won't ever know how of a douche Zen is, and the same ghost is helping them out. To Miko though, the duality that she has to face both him and the ghost is one of the more shock-factor experiences she's ever gone though. Heh, Yuri-ness for Miko and Hana to save the latter from all trouble.

Yuria coming to the infirmary to check on Hana, she easily picked up on the situation quick...except that she blurted the actual facts too fast in Hana's face. Good save Miko, but at this point, you should be already aware of the link between your friend and Zen, and Yuria is your helper in need to break this case wide open.

The park indeed has spirits lurking around, and Miko almost got killed by a small fry of a spirit, which the guardian spirits saved her yet again. The problem is, like a genie granting 3 wishes, this is the 2nd time and only 1 more chance remains...USE IT WISELY, Miko.

The last bit of protection, how to spend on it?

For someone named Zen, whatever is doing to the cats, as well as what he was planning to do that cat, certainly isn't befitting of his name.

Miko almost gave in but thnx to Hana she was saved. The look of relief on her face was hilarious. Thou it really was a bad day for her as she got into a really bad situation again but luckily those spirits saved her again. Thou seems like they'll help her only one more time. Also really wonder what's up with the sensei.

So it's going to be Miko going against the teacher probably and if she will use the protection for that since she used another one in this episode. It's nice that Yuria just wanted to check on Hana and she's getting along well with them until she starts to think about what's going on with Miko.

That was some good horror episode!

The bgm during the fight was great. Like some bgm in video games.

The shrine maidens gonna protect Miko one last time!? Oh no.

And it looks like Miko will be seeing them again next week as the title suggests, "Miru?"

Last 2 more episodes to go!

That was one tricky ghost in the park. I can see Miko becoming paranoid and starting to avoid humans...
On the other hand there is some progress. She learned about Hana's aura (I didn't get why she didn't notice it), understood how her protection works and started to think that just avoiding ghosts herself might not be enough. Shame she didn't get a chance to talk with Yuria.

Now the real question is if she can renev that protection once it runs out. But I guess that'd be too easy?

Hmm the insight into the teacher's past was pretty interesting. Even back then seems he was quite distant. Still thats one hell of a guard ghost he has in the present though. Amusing that Miko ended up being saved by Hana's hunger though. Though its a new experience for her its nice to see Yulia taking the time to see her friends. But her misunderstandings sure took a toll on her thats for sure. The guardians sure were timely with their intervention. But im curious though as to what will happen after they saved her three times though. Would they simply withdraw or do they need something from Miko.

In this episode we even see what is the difference between miko and Yulia ability are

What was the meaning of 3 by shrine ghost


Why Hana was so hungry

A new type of ghost which was a bit spooky because it was so unexpected

Maybe they expect something like Miko become exorcist and will battle the ghost eventually so this is not what they want.
This show is just not for them

So if she looks at the ghosts they are legally allowed to do whatever they want to her.

And the teacher is the killer of cats

This is getting heavier per episode, I do wonder what will happen after the 3rd chance she was given. Will she be possessed by these evils things or something unexpected will happen?

I also wondered when Miko will try to continue looking for things that will save her from her current predicament (since there seem to be no animation that would make us believe that she may still be pursuing protection from things like the prayer beads from the previous episodes that didn't work in the end). Like for example, training to be a shrine priestess like from some other story that can potentially exorcise them... XD but this story may not have that goal since this is more like a slice of life.

Yuria is so weirdly cute here in this episode, her trauma from Miko still haunts her though.
Hana on the other hand is still oblivious , well most characters that doesn't have the sight does.

Is it just me or their replacement teacher is killing the cats, how loathsome he would be if its true since there's so many dark spirits haunting him that looks like cats.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Cool at episode 10 and spits about to hit the fan!

There's the shrine spirits, Hana's aura and the Teacher with more baggage added to him.
I was wondering how long they were going to take to do something more than have Miko not look at ghosts, but it seems she's going to have to finally made some decisions as to what to do and who to trust/get help from as in Yuria.

Overall though, so far so good.

I understand where you are coming from, but honestly this anime is a horror-mystery so by definition it has to be a slow burn. It is frustrating yes because as you said before, alot of these plot points could be done quicker/introduced earlier with no detriment to the story but please be patient with it. Also the fan service has decreased significantly and is now essentially non-existent.

Ya the bit where a ghost could completely disguise itself as human almost as if it had intent to trick someone who could see is pretty messed up. But then again what does being able to see really have to do with whether or not you'll get attacked? Kinda a moot point. Also Zen is def a wacko.

Hana's hunger is something that make some noise in me, in this episode curiously she and the girl's that appeared in the after credits scene made the same question: "what's that you're eating?", that was just a joke or I'm overlooking here? Meh...

Hana's hunger being affected by the new sub helped Miko out this time. Gotta produce more light to beat all the darkness coming from the cat killer sub.

That spirit was a crafty one. Didn't know they could disguise themselves as normal humans. That curiousity of what may happen if she acknowledges them is kinda answered here.

Miko realized what they meant. Better make the last one count.

Plans foiled by his students. Hope that Miko or somebody can do something about this guy.

First I want to make it clear that I never read the manga nor have I read any spoilers. With that said...

While the series is making Zen look like a bad guy, do you think this is all just a bait & switch and they'll reveal this was all just a giant misunderstanding and he was innocent this entire time? I don't know, something tells me this is what will end up happening.

I think so as well, more so considering we don't have nearly enough info to judge him yet. I haven't read the source either.

The show just got more intense with this episode, and with 2 episodes remaining, I think it's only gonna get scary from here.

We all know that Hana eating is her life force, the aura that can affect the ghosts that Miko plus Yuria sees, so with Zen and his ghosts around she is practically weaker right now. And even Yuria realizes it, so yeah that's a fact. Also Miko only has one chance left to be saved by those knights of hers, because after that, who knows what will happen. But kidding aside, I was legit scared by that scene with the little (boy) monster, legit horrifying knowing what Miko is in right now.

With Zen still killing cats, Yuria scared of Miko, and ours truly only having one more chance, the show is having some STAKES. Atleast there's one positive happening this episode, and that Miko said she loves Hana....thanks for the granted ship.

This felt really dragged out and like it honestly didn't accomplish as much as it could. Does just fully confirm my suspicion that they're trying to finish on this arc and saving the interesting stuff that comes later for a potential season 2 (or for a "read the manga" hook of an ending).

This has been the most exciting episode in a while. Zen is one really creepy fuck. I hope in some way he gets his comeuppance and gets merked by some cat ghosts or something (maybe a cat deity like the fox deity that's currently helping Miko). I'm not someone who loves cats, but I absolutely DESPISE anyone who intentionally harms any animal. This episode was borderline uncomfortable, because before it was just strongly implied that Zen was a sicko, but this episode certainly cemented that fact.

Additionally, that ghost pretending to be a human kid in the park really caught me off guard. I first thought that it was just a ghost popping the kid's balloon and being a dick, but damn that was a surprise. Kinda a waste of one of the kitsune protections, but Miko was completely unprepared. It seems the ghosts are getting smarter. Things aren't looking good in many ways for our poor Miko-chan.

Great episode! That teacher throwing away the food his neighbour gave him with blood o his hand was pretty creepy. Hana saying 'you know, today I'm hungry' and Miko responding uninterested was funny xD. Hana was also worried about running fast as she was going to lose calories. Woah, looks like Usain Bolt reincarnated as a monster lol. Hana's stomach rumbling in class must have been very embarassing. Miko accidentally waved at a human looking boy... who was actually a ghost! The shrine maiden spirits came to save her again and it seems she only has 1 lifeline left...

Looking forward to the next episode!

the little trick ghost on the park was tense, XD ... after that, if I was Miko, would probably be scared of deal with people I don't know lol...

when the shrine spirit said "three times", I thought he was counting the help in the shrine too... (was one hell of a battle, to be free sample, XD) so, when they raised one finger last time, I thought were saying that there's only one help remaining... but that was actually the "help number one"... now was the second...

anyway, it's a little weird to think that if the ghosts know you can see them, change anything... (and, coincidently, Miko been pretending she can't, just out of fear)

and, seems like the teacher killed another cat.. Miko even noticed "one more" in Zen's "shadow cats spirits" (don't know how she can tell how many there's )

This teacher is up to no good obviously, and his hobbies are not the most sane ones.

Hana felt bad due to her hunger, and Miko decided to take her to the nursery right when a ghost was annoying her. Yulia told them that Hana lost a lot of aura, and Miko thought that this could be the reason of her neverending hunger.

The kid waving turned out to be a ghost, that was defeated by those magic mikos. As they warned, they will only come to their rescue three times. And they only have one left. It's time to Miko defend herself and the ones she cares.

That guy at the post credits is another one with creepy hobbies, now involving cats. Let's wait to know more.

The show is really steering us into thinking Zen is the mad kitty killer but since we never actually see his face before he commits the deed it could be a bait and switch as others implied. As much as I want the culprit to be caught I am open to the idea it could be someone else.

Question is how will Hana's power feature into the conclusion seeing as it has been mentioned with increasing frequency. Not sure but Miko has got to make up with Yulia stat! I wonder how can she do this. It will probably come from yet another misunderstanding. The one today was funny as usual.

Good episode even though not much progress in the story but with only two episodes to go I wonder how they wrap this up or will we get an ending that is wide open?
