Ackk!!, another epiode to feed the post-show Sister Swapping Speculation Syndrome. My eyes glazed over trying to read the different hypothesis up to episode 8. .

Well, I guess I'm a machoist , for reading it.

Show comments and questions(with screenshots borrowed from Sushi-Y, thanks)-

Spoiler:

-----------------------------------------------
The confession scene was too short for my tastes. It didn't have the dramatic suspense I was hoping for. Mion (demon mode) confessed so willingly and easily to Rena and Keiichi.


--------------------------------------------------
Yeah Rena!! For standing by and supporting Keiichi.


-------------------------------------------------
Yukino Satsuki did a great voice acting job in the Sonozaki torture chamber/prison scene as Mion and Shion.

---------------------------------------------------
The show raised a couple of questions:

1-Was Keiichi delusional or not? If all the bodies were in the welll, who was it that attacked Keiichi in the torture chamber, then stabbed him later on, and imprisoned Shion in the chamber?

One thing that is more certain to me, is that Shion was a victim in the Watanagashi arc. I also believe that after the festival in epsiode 5 we don't see the real Shion until the chamber scene in episode 8.

2-Why would Mion want to harm Rika? I rewatched episode 6-8, and I still couldn't get clear reason.

3-Why does Mion(demon-possessed or not) or Oyashiro need to kill people who either broke into the ritual storehouse or otherwise know about it? What does it ultimately accomplish in the modern world?

The only thing I learned is, Don't borrow soy sauce from your "friend".
