*CIRCULAR HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
It's a DOUBLE DOSE of Natsume this week! Natsume meets a new classmate that seems a little similar to him in terms of possibly seeing yokai!
But now, it's a race against time to not only save her, but Natsume himself! I'm so glad these episodes were watched back to back! This set was the Natsume standard...times TWO! What a treat this week!

*MOONLIT HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
Shen QingQiu may be back, back, back again - but so is Luo Binghe and some other familiar faces, as it's the Cang Qing Mountain Sect vs. Sha Hualing and Huan Hua palace that has definitely changed over the course of 5 years!
Shen QingQiu, I love you, but after this chapter set...I don't think you have as MUCh of an excuse with being oblivious to Luo Binghe's feelings anymore...

*HOMEWRECKER HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
I have been curious about Juri's character since the start of this series and we finally get a peek into her backstory...and let's just say: there's a LOT going on with our tangerine fencer!
This episode starts to peel back a layer or two concerning Utena and her "playing the prince," and what that means to not only others, but opens up questions for her to perhaps ask of herself!

*TAG TEAM HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
If you'd asked me what would be on my Berserk BINGO card, Zodd and Guts teaming up to battle a demonic thunder cloud would NOT be on it! But here we are! The crew is SO close to getting that ship to head out to Elfhelm, but Ganishka is not going to make things easy for them!
Meanwhile, Griffith is orchestrating yet another move on the chess board to gaining control over Midland and things just seem to be falling perfectly into place for him...

*WISHFUL HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
I didn't expect to really want more from this storyline, but this episode set expanded on these characters that I wanted to keep seeing more of -- and seeing Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang developing their relationship was so brilliant!
Oh, and no big deal...but Qiao Ling's suspicions may be reaching their breaking point with her brother and his..."friend."

It's the penultimate episode (HOW?!) and Uramichi is making a sudden decision that could shake up the entire friendship with him and his fellow cast -- and Usahara is NOT having it!
As he laments Uramichi's choice, the group reminisces on first meeting him and how that flashback changed the trajectory of their entire future!

This episode had so much to discuss! I can't wait to hear your thoughts!

*PROTECTIVE HEADPHONE WARNINGS*
This was definitely an episode for Jinshi and MaoMao -- my shipper heart is a FLUTTER -- even if these two are the MOST oblivious about it! I was left (mostly) SPEECHLESS!
Definitely a set up episode for the famed "Garden Party" about to occur in the palace, and something seems to be lurking in the background -- and it looks like it may be up to MaoMao and Jinshi to figure out what it is before chaos erupts!

Look, because of this episode I have Men Without Hats' song "Safety Dance" stuck in my head! But poor Uramichi, he just can't escape the dread of insane outfits, or the stress they're putting on his body!
This episode was full of twists and turns, and not just Uramichi explaining traffic safety, as we find out quite a few at Maman have their eyes on our buff gymnast oniisan!

Wow, what a ways our boy Rei has come since Episode 1 to now, and we're just STARTING season 2! He has new friends, an "actual" high school experience developing, and seems to be growing as a person instead of his stagnation at the start of the series!
We obviously have a WAYS to go, but this was a heartwarming and hilarious start to season...

If we learned one thing from this episode: DO NOT make MaoMao angry.
Lessons were learned, y'all. And I've taken notes!
MaoMao gets assigned an important undertaking from the Emperor himself, and Jinshi seems adamant to see how she can fare "on her own" with this one, but that doesn't mean MaoMao isn't going to employ all the resources she has available to help "solve the case!" This episode was a GOOD one!

This episode was so sweet and the typical Natsume Yujin-Cho heartwarming standard!
