Suzu invited Kantarou, Youko and Haruka to a cottage in the mountain. On their way to the cottage they walked by a riverbank. Kantarou showed of his reed pipe blowing skills. Suzu wanted to learn how to blow a reed pipe as well, but she still has much to learn. When they arrived at the cottage they couldn’t find anyone. Then a man named Tatsuzou appeared. Suzu recognized him immediately and asked him where his wife Chikage is. The last time Suzu visited the cottage, Chikage kept her entertained. Tatsuzou answered Chikage has passed away. When Suzu asked him how this could have happened, he said it was his fault Chikage died. Suzu was very sad about it and went to the riverbank to be alone for a while. When she wanted to return to the cottage she saw Chikage and a little girl. Chikage talked to Suzu and introduced the little girl to her. The little girl’s name is Shigure and she’s Chikage and Tatsuzou’s daughter. Suzu can’t believe what she’s seeing and told Chikage that Tatsuzou said she was dead. Chikage answered that she doesn’t understand why Tatsuzou would say something like that. The next moment Suzu is back at the cottage where everyone tells her she has seen Chikage's ghost. Suzu refused to believe them and wanted to go back to the riverbank to confirm that Chikage is still alive. Haruka offered to go with her. After they waited for a while there was still no sign of Chikage. So they decided to return to the cottage, where strange things began to happen. First Shizuka saw a stuffed Youko (in her demon form), then she saw Kantarou whose head has turned into a melon and lastly she saw Haruka’s skeleton. It turns out Tatsuzou went to gamble when Chikage was in labor pain. She died at the riverbank, but all this time she hasn’t forgotten about Shizuka. She even said to Tatsuzou that the child in her womb is Suzu. When Suzu thought she has lost everyone she cares about, Chikage appeared again and wanted Suzu to be her child. Suzu refused and told Chikage to return Kantarou, Youko and Haruka to her. She told Chikage she doesn’t like her, because she’s nothing like the Chikage she knew. When Suzu’s tears fell on the ground everything went back to before they went to the cottage. Suzu thought that everything was just a dream till she discovered she can blow a reed pipe all of a sudden.
This episode was very confusing. I still don’t understand it very clearly. Was everything Suzu saw just an illusion or was it real? If it was real how come Haruka and Kantarou haven’t noticed Chikage’s presence? I must say I’m quite disappointed that the animators have decided to do some character episodes instead of continuing with the Minamoto Raikou arc. Well since complaining won’t help much, I’ll just hope for the best. The next episode should be quite interesting, because it’s about Sugino and Muu-chan (my favs).
