Ugh I really want to like this anime. The animation is great and so are the character designs (I love Ai-chan so much). Buuut oh god the story is a mess and this episode was so stupid, defeating a youmu by singing and dancing?! That was so stupid and forced, come on... I should have learned by now, buy KyoAni always pulls me back with its visuals, damn ittt.

JAJAJAJAJA I was an spectacular episode jajaja, I laughed a lot! xD
Ridiculously funny!

Incredible how they learned to sing and they even set up all that event in just one week. In the end I was telling to myself "Ehh, ok but who's gonna kill the youma? since all of you are singing and dancing... jaja"

Truly, the episode had near to nothing related to the plot but I can't deny that it made me laugh repeatedly thought the episode. With filler of this quality I don't mind having them! Altho, I'm not sure if it is filler, is it in the LN too or is it really filler?


PD: Really, the dancing and the song were pretty good.

Good filler/comedy episode. I'm really over the guys being perverted for humor BUT I was shook when Ai came out as the ultimate idol weapon. That alone made this episode amazing.

Lmfao, this episode was the best, I love how Hiroomi entered the room to embrace his sweet little sister, almost puking into being all twinkley-eyed and eventually did puke because despite his sister fetish, the stench was just THAT bad.

This dance or at least parts of it got this anime on the radar for me, seeing it in AMV's etc.

This has got to be one of the most ridiculous episodes I've ever seen. But definitely in a good way.
Even though this episode was basically filler, it was still very enjoyable. I lol'd at multiple parts. Good job, KyoAni.
I'm glad I un-dropped this show.

Lol, this was a hilarious side-story episode!

“So who’s going to kill it?”, xD I totally died of laughter then!
“We’re ... Idols!”, gah this was just gold! Absolutely loved the sudden change in intensity right there, the dramatic flashbacks and those frequent numerous visits to the shower were just glorious! I’m really loving the character interactions of this show so far, and this episode was the highlight of it all! Ayaka totally knew this was to come, I just know it. Kuriyama trying to seduce the youmu at the start of the episode and the imouto scenes were all cho-very hilarious! I think going for the cheaper and more stable job would’ve been so much more time saving and worth, lol. “Onii-cha” scenes were definitely my favourite and most hilarious of all, and the brilliant OST playing just made it all the more amazing!

All in all, a much appreciated side-story episode! I really hope we get more of such glorious comedy later on too!

To be frankly honest, there’d have to be a an amazing, sublime and top-tier episode just to be beat this.
Jokes aside, I haven’t seen the show fully yet but I’ll be very glad if the following episodes will be just as good.

Funniest episode yet.

The plan

  • Kill dreamshadow
  • ???????????????
  • Profit!!!!


Ah, yeah. Nothing is as easy as it first appears. If the spirit busting a foul smelling liquid wasn't enough, Mitsuki getting drenched with the "stemen" juice was totally unexpected. (BTW, does that qualify as bukkake?)

The final "boss battle" was epic. the group trained all week, put on an J-pop idol show (Akihito and Hiroomi as the back-up singers was LOL) and succeeded in calming the spirit, except they forgot one small detail: who was going to deliver the final blow.

I laughed. I cried. I'm deeply traumatized by the bukkake scene.

Hiromi super cool onii-chan move before vomiting...
The whole gang getting motivated in the shower...
The school idols...
Hiromi super agile body...

I thought who's going to defeat the youmu if everyone's dancing...indeed...LOL
you said it.

awesome episode! I actually really enjoyed them becoming idols, the montage and all.

what school has co-ed showers??


I'm still wondering why everyone is in the same shower room Mitsuki after she got drenched. The gas masks were a great touch.

I feel like this show just officially jumped the shark with this episode. Ironically, it's the first episode that I actually enjoyed myself. Hmm... can't say I'm glad that it'll return to the plot at this point, considering there is no way I can take this show seriously after this. Honestly don't know how it'll ever try to pass itself off as "dark fantasy" again.


What is the plot? as far as i can tell there isn't one.


The Plot:

  • Attack the youmu.
  • Get drenched in foul smelling liquid.
  • Take a shower.
  • Lather, rinse, repeat. (Literally!) (And, yes, I mean it in the dictionary definition.)

Well, I suppose I'll throw my hat into the ring in defense of this episode.

Okay, it's a filter episode. We get it, but that doesn't mean that's it's not important. One thing I've noticed with KyoAni series is the idea of people coming together and forming a strong bond with one another. Let's take a quick look at the characters.

  • Akihito - a half-human, half-youmu
  • Kuriyama - spirit hunter from a defunct family due to their cursed blood
  • Ai - a youmu who can shape shift from human to cat
  • Hiroomi and Mitsuki - brother & sister from a wealthy spirit hunting family

Not exactly the group of people you would expect to be sitting down together for a cup of tea. However, they manage to look past (not overlook) their differences because they're "always going to be alone." Having made that epiphany in the previous episode, they chose to become closer because no one else will have them.

This is the first episode post-epiphany that shows them working together to help one of their own. Sure, it's filled with fanservice, but not as overboard as in other series, and and it's played up with humor. However, that is merely a distraction to the much deeper and more significant progress of strengthening their bonds of friendship.

In the end, you have a lesson about the importance of acceptance, friendship, and teamwork. No one ever said that all lessons had to be tedious and boring.

Well, the mood shift from the previous episodes are really sharp. I mean the dancing and singing part was ok, but, seriously, this is supposed to be a dark fantasy series, with lots of gore and seriousness, and "breather episodes" are ok, but I felt at the beginning of the series that mood is unbalanced. Well, I feel, that the story is going to be a mess after that, but I hope that we can get some more darker aspects of the story after that.

It was painful to see them comment on fetishes as if that was relevant to the story. Unnecessary and predictable episode. The only reason for the creation of Kuriyama Mirai seems to have been to promote fetish for girls with glasses as it is ceaselessly and tiringly shown as yet another irrelevant feature to the story.

Foi doloroso ver eles comentarem sobre fetiches como se isso fosse relevante para a história. Episódio desnecessário e previsível. O único motivo para a criação da Kuriyama Mirai parece ter sido para promover o fetiche por garotas de óculos como é incessantemente e cansativamente mostrado como mais uma característica irrelevante para a história.

These episode was all about a smelling youmu. Great. Fanservices. Ever. Its a pretty random activity, i guessed with how the previous end scenes with Izumi not be talked on this episode. Such a shame. However, with all that dance, singing smoothly, a cute momentary, a good banter, a nice bath scenery. Oh, well, i can't take this episode as a seriously bad. So, yeah, an okay episode.
Finally they kept the whole main story in the next episode. Lets see....

Ugh, It was funny but I'm pretty pissed after ALL that bullshit they didn't beat the damn thing, what a WASTE of time. She didn't get the money, the girl still stinks, although I'm sure she'll magically be cured of the smell. Also The sister is waaaaay better than The Glasses girl. She can actually speak, she's confident, pretty and she's not a little weirdo lol

Wow. I finally got the saw the whole song. I had always seen that dance in anime dance episodes on YouTube, but never knew where the dance came from, and in this episode I finally found it. YES!

Anyway, their whole song basically encapsulated a whole 12-episode of a drama anime lol.
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

Has its moments, but ultimately fails to become anything else than a fanservice-driven filler episode, not very different from the dozens of other shows of the sort.
Especially unfortunate considering the length of the series.
