A lot has happened to Himari since she started living at Momochi House...Ayakashi, being attacked, her new supernatural Bishonen protectors...and waking up next to a dude for the first time ever! And slugging said dude! Aoi needs to recognize a lady's privacy
!
Well, Yukari and Ise still don't really want her around, though Himari is still trying to throw her weight around as the true owner of the house. And conveniently it's a self-sufficient house that repairs/cleans itself and runs on Ayakashi for lighting and food! And at the very least Himari has the ability to chuck people out of the house, which is convenient for shutting Ise up
.
Himari still has plenty of questions about her parents and Aoi, but she's got to stop running into him naked! Though she does want the naked truth of his circumstances, where a child wandered into the house and became a suitable vessel for the Omamori-sama to which he got stuck with the job even though on paper it should've been Himari. Though all the same it seems like Aoi is keeping his true connection to Himari and how relevant she is to this to himself
.
(I wonder how hot Nue Himari would look...)
No Himari, don't follow the entrancing voice and pick fruit off of the random Cherry Blossom Tree! Good thing Aoi was there to save her as Nue alongside Yukari and Ise! The boys work quick
.
Getting saved again and seeing how much Aoi prioritizes her safety seems to have really made an impact on Himari, and made her want to really see around town with Aoi...it's just unfortunate that, as the Omamori-sama, he can't leave the house like Himari again. Even more, his entire existence was erased from the world after he got trapped there, and he's resigned to never leave Momochi House or experience the human world again. Which just creates even more distance between Himari and Aoi
.
Fancy running into one of your teachers before you even start school! And through this encounter Himari finds the resolve to commit to Momochi House and helping Aoi, not out of pity, but because she feels it's her duty as a Momochi to free him and kick him out so he can be human again! And Aoi seems very touched at Himari's determination and dedication to help him. That embrace was quite sweet as well
.
Though it looks like amidst of that joyful moment, the demonic redhead guy is plotting something involving the Nue
