This episode was survival horror at its prime when properly executed.
Mood and environment creepily setup, sprinkled with severe psychological layer, keeping the visceral hidden and unknown to the audience, and matching up the soundtrack with the direness each one of the unknowing victims went through.
Bakenezumi are proving themselves terrifyingly intelligent; if Yakomaru found his way to set loose a Karma Demon, then his seemingly desperate actions to trigger a war against the village not only are reasonable now but also ceased to be desperate.
And, the horror does not end at the ruined hospital, since unidentified Karma Demon is trailing Saki and Satoru via the canal on boat.
