Man this episode made me want some mister doughnut nice publicity Shaft.
I hope that Kagenui and Ononoki will turn out to be neutral characters latter on after this arc was resolved. After all, it would be a waste for such a badass and interesting characters to end up getting ass kicked by the heroes in the end. From this point, I seemed to me that this series has villians but no real antagonist. By that I mean the one who has ambition of taking over the world or cleansing it by wipe out all living existance on earth. Both are common drive for antagonists in various other anime series. Sure some arc had villians in it but not one that have prolong conflict with protagonist. What I find interesting is that this series is basically slice-of-life coming of age series with supernatural element but villians are also present which is rare.
