[Spoilers] Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari - Episode 8 Discussion

Really is a nice little anime surprised not many are watching it.

but the drawings are really ugly

young Hyoma was already op, beating strong monsters when he was even 12yo
back in present day, he is fighting the guys at the temple, from last episode, and even if he is starting to get a little tired, he doesn't seem too worried
wanting to play with Hyoma a little more before sealing him(?), he called that youkai with a blade foot, we saw that one before, the girl who attacked the trio when they visited her house... so she got caught, rip

we saw Tsubaki younger self, she is cute either way

the blade girl is quite strong, and with Hyoma feeling bad for using his skill on her, it's a problem... even the enemy knows he is becoming more friendly with tsukumogami

he looked like he finally decided to beat the girl, but instead he managed to destroy the talisman without even scratching her, wtf
the old man thought he had an advantage, but he quickly got shut down
Tsubaki heard all about Hyoma from his older simblings (the ones who died) and she is now interested in him more than ever... so either her father stops, or she will make them stop lol
also, a talisman scythe? that's cool , i'm liking scythe weilders more and more after some animes/games have them

so, now that they lost, they use the excuse that it was all a test, sure :D
Tsubaki gave him her number, that should be interesting lol
the blade girl will be in their care, and she is not too happy to join the Botan household, even if for just a day, they are scary

back at home, Hyoma remembered how bad the old guy talked about Botan ... the poor girl has had to deal with people thinking bad of her for so long, yet she manages to smile, her family did a good job
when Yagen came in, Botan couldn't hold on on her naughty thoughts lol
next day, when it's time to take Yagen out, Botan had to go with them, to clear the misunderstanding... and also because Hyoma's eyes are scary
Yagen wants to visit the place where she used to "live" when she was just a crafting tool, but after hundreds of years, the place is probably different now ... still she is satisfied
she also doesn't want to take the couple's time LOL those faces, what a cute scene

time to leave Yagen to her new owners?family? (hopefully a good one), but not before she tells him to protect Botan, as she is a special master to all of them
Botan herself is having fun watching Hyoma do his job, and learning about other youkais apart from the ones at her home
Botan (and us as well) learning more about the 2 simblings that died and the reason he hates tsukumogami
his goal now, is to understand more about them, instead of just killing on sight... and with Botan seal of aproval, he will be able to do it
Hyoma still feels the many tsukumogami that are looking at Botan, including... Yuu and her murderous intent lols
it's finally time for him to call her Botan tho, as Nagatsuki the name of everyone in the family, but again, Yuu is not happy :D

next episode, a mysterious fire... and i see Tsubaki
