So many variety of characters and creatures!
This was another very colorful episode.

The surreal humor never ceases to amuse me. Enma snores so loud when he sleeps LOL

gotta love the twins they make any episode they're in more playful and all the references they made were pretty funny

I found the first half boring, but the second was nice, that Totoro reference was awesome.

Zashiki Warashi are always 10/10, I could watch an entire spin-off series about the mischief they get up to.

Has anyone seen the OVSs introducing the Zashiki Warashi? Are they as funny as they are in this episode?

Did anyone see the Ending's change? the screaming goldfish plants scene, episodes 1 and 2 had Goddess Izanami no Mikoto, and 3rd episode have Zashiki Warashi instead.

I already ROFL'd at that "Old man calling Old man bla bla bla". :'v
Then comes the second part to know about Hoouki's Zashiki Warashi. They may be sadist, BUT since everyone likes them and talk to them alot. PLUS their cute big eyes and voice is so damn cute. >_<

That Totoro reference. A whole segement on the Zashiki Warashi was a nice surprise.

I knew they weren't there before. Never seen them make such a face.

As I'd feared, the change of the studio had negative consequences. 3 episodes in, and this season is not nearly as good as the first one or even the first 3 ovas. Damn, because this was the anime I had anticipated the most this fall...

This episode was great, I loved to see Hakutaku back, and to know about his resentment (for being compared with Hoozuki by the girls). Also, the ZashikiWarashi are so cute!!

The twins in the OVA are as funny or funnier than they are in this episode.

The humor has certainly been toned down a bit, but I'm not sure if this is because of the change in staff (which is only the director, character designer and animation studio), or because the manga itself is simply not as humorous at this point.

Still, I'm enjoying this show for what it is. The humor seems to be more in the details now than just in your face, which is how I think it was last season.

As for this episode, I still don't know whether to find the Zashiki Warashi cute or seriously creepy. They look cute enough when they talk, but those eyes that do not blink can stare into your soul, and it makes my skin crawl whenever we see them from up front.

Totally agree. IMO, Studio Deen is making a great job, at least they are really loyal to the manga events, just like the later studio was...

The first part is fun, though the references are less direct than those made in the second part with the two Zashiki Warashi. I absolutely must see the OVA.

Do not forget that there was also a great reference to Cat's Eye.

The backstory of Hakutaku's and Hozuki's feud was interesting, but it felt dragged out to me.

Best part is definitely with the Zashiki Warashi.

Finally, Hakutaku!

I agree that this season is a bit a letdown. Imo, comedy is the same, but the pace feels kinda slower.

But this is the same as the manga. Even if this was the old studio, thing will still be the same anyway. I still found this entertaining.

Now that I've familiarized myself with the manga up to the latest chapter 226, I can explain better where I think this season fails in comparison to the first one, and that would be the direction (because with the change of the studio came the change of the director). While the base is the same (the manga), the arrangement and approach is different: the first season was more creative with how it paced a chapter's material and it often took small creative liberties to improve pacing of a segment by adding a bit or rearranging and combining. This season is faithful to the manga in pretty much every detail, which highlights the problem, innate only to the animated version, of info dumps and screwed up pacing because nothing is done to smooth it out.
