| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Best episode so far, I really enjoyed this one. Nyanko-sensei was hialrious again and the Youkais are getting more and more interesting. I wonder if Natsume will make use of some of the Youkais at some point since they're so easy to command as long as their names are written in the book. |

| Yeah, this series is getting better every ep. Very enjoyable. Best this season so far. |
| very good episode, I'l loving this series |
    |
| The series just keeps getting better and better. I hope to see more interesting youkai in future episodes. |
 |
| Great series so far, each episode just makes it better and better. |
 |
| Best episode yet, though I wonder when we'll see cooler Youkai (as in, scarier or more dangerous). |
| Great episode as always, this series is very calm, still intense and packed with strange apparitions and nice stories each episode. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Getting better and better. Hopefully it will continue this way. |
| love the calm ending... This episode made me fall in love with everything bout this anime. And the neko.... KYAAAAAAAAAAA! LOVE HIM SO MUCH X3333 |

| I dunno, I guess I'm the only one but I didn't find this episode too great. This series is just kinda bleh to me so far, quite honestly. If the youkai were actually more like monsters, maybe it'd be a bit better. I dunno... |

If the youkai were actually more like monsters, maybe it'd be a bit better. I dunno... Yea..those who havent watched so many animes are probably thinking so.. I know I would like 3-4 years back need more action and blood.. But once one has seen all the kickass youkai action one wants something more calm later on.. Trust me on that ;p since we seem to have 88% compatibility ratio =) |
| Ahhhhh so beautiful, and it's only going to be even better! I can't take this amount of amazing! |
| Love it! And pretty much everyone has said it already but this series is getting even more enjoyable as it progresses! Hope we see more of Tanuma since, like Natsume, he seems like a sweetheart!!! :D |
 |
| this serie is quickly becoming one of my favorites. |
  |
| Wow, loved the ep :) |
 |
| Another great episode~ Nyanko sensei killed me with the "sexy belly dance". XD I wonder if it'll start to get a whole lot darker... Regardless, I'll probably enjoy the rest as it comes out if it stays on this track. |
 |
| i thought the episode was alright, I wasn't that big a fan of this story in the manga. I really liked the flashbacks with the onee-san though. |
 |
| a rather nice episode. easy going but entertaining. maybe now hell start develping his abilities. |
| Agreed with this getting better as it progresses. In particular I'm really fond of the way Natsume is torn between humans and youkai, especially considering one group, from Natsume's perspective as a child, was constantly tormenting him while the other he hasn't been able to establish strong relationships with due to being different. Obviously being an outcast isn't something foreign to anime, but much like other parts of this show that don't mind walking along an already cleared path it does it so well that it shouldn't have to go out of it's way to be original. As for whether it will get darker or if there will be more monster-esque youkai I'm really hoping it won't since it's already treading a fine line between "really good show that doesn't have to reinvent the wheel" and "haven't I seen this show several times before?" |
| great one. |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| This aniem has a good vibe, I like this kinda stuff. Love the two demons sucking up to him XD |
| It was ok, but I liked the last one much better. This one was a bit boring. Only the part with the not-human girl talking to him, was great. |
   |
| I just thing the idea is so completely diffrent from the most of the other series I have seen. It's like; Hmm, a book filled with sealed spirits, I could use them to save the world (Or Claim it :P)... But let us just release them instead... |
   |
| I wouldn't say it beat episode 2, personally (hard to beat that ending), but I did enjoy it and I'm glad that it seems to be keeping the same feel even with other human characters. |
 |
| love it!! the first two eps were so-so to me but this one was great!!! i really enjoy the calm feeling of this series. makes me feel good. of course there is the cute nyanko-sensei. |
 |
| it gets better and better! beautiful like the first two episodes. and i totally expected that black-haired boy to be the bad one, what's with that evil-ish grin >.> lol but i'm kinda glad he isn't. looking forward to more! love LOVE this anime! <3 |
| All I have to say is go, Buddhist powers!!! XD |
| I honestly don't get why people find this series so amazing... Meh, it's just not my thing. xP |
| Of all the anime airing (that I'm watching), this is by far the most promising. I can't wait to watch more of this. |
 |
| Yay, the introduction of MikiShin Tanuma/a new character~ ^o^ Natsume is awesome in every way. Such a great guy. I got a little teary-eyed when he |
 |
| better than the first two, but still not good enough... |
   |
Mouri said: Nyanko sensei killed me with the "sexy belly dance". XD Totally agreed. It almost killed me XD. Very good ep, wanting more<3. |
     |
| I thought this was the best episode so far... I think there's a good balance between serious and comedy, and all the characters are nice too... |
Auau hauu hauu auau auu-wa hauuau~ |
| I'm really liking this series so far. I just hope they keep the youkais wacky and light hearted. It's nice to watch a series thats just calm and doesn't try to be too suspenseful and dark. |
 |
| As people have said the "sexy belly dance" part was extremly funny! This anime is showing such promise, I really hope it continues that way. The ED is beautiful, I can't wait for its release. <3 |
| Awsome episode, the best so far ^^ I really like Nyako-sensei, he can be hilarious sometimes, but when he shows his real self, to quote CCSakura "I go all hanyaaaaan" And I really enjoyed the flashback =) This series is becoming more and more interesting I don't like the opening and the ending, though, too soft and lame :P |
 |
| I love this series! It just feels like the kind of anime that i will always like Nyanko-sensei is the best Serena said: to quote CCSakura "I go all hanyaaaaan" oh yeah that happens to me too :D |
 |
| I didn't expect Natsume Yuujinchou to be so funny! Nyanko-sensei, the cheerleading youkai, the 'sexual harassment'... I don't often laugh out loud at anime, but this had me rolling around in my chair. Great stuff! I had a moment when the massive horse demon showed up - kimono, hooves and all - when I just went, 'SO COOOOOL.' Favourite youkai so far, y/n? So, SO good. |
 |
| I kind of hope for a big villain and some action a bit, but just being a nice calm series is the show's strong point so we will see. Only show I picked up this summer. |
| My anime list |
| Liked the last episode more, but this one still had some funny moments. |
last.fm
| great episode =] easy going |
     |
| Any form of a villain was gone. Nyanko sensei rant about the Book of Friends getting thinner was awesome. |
| Good episode, glad they somewhat diverged from the returning a name and introduced a human character in. |
| I liked it and I'm glad he's met someone with similar powers. |
 |
| Really liked this one, the show is getting better with every episode. |
| Another relaxing yet interesting episode. tanuma seemed kind of suspicious with those smirks he was giving off earlier.. |
