Tsurara have more point + special with him while Kana have same treatment as other members
Kana didn't even meet him at...
since she can't fight like Tsurara > they could at least let her wait for him infron doors like Tsurara...
(Tsurara have more point since she go out of house to meet him.)

The ending was very rushed as expected. We didn't even get any closure on the romance side of things.

Rikuo equipping Hagoromo Gitsune was the highlight of the chapter. It looked incredibly badass.

This actually reminded me of the time when Nurarihyon made a scarf out of the fox Gyuki killed in the past Kyoto arc.
Wonder if that was already foreshadowing?

NeutralZero · 2013-02-19, 13:22

No romance closure but it sure made clear that Hagoromo Gitsune isn't one of them
So who ever wins Tsurara, Yura and the other one is left hanging... might be forever... unless there's a sequel to the series...

they did spend a lot of time together. Who knows what Gitsune taught him.

KleenexGhost · 2013-02-19, 13:41

It felt rushed. The Gitsune matoi was badass.

Can't really expect a 12 year old to know who his life partner should be, at least it was heavily implied that Tsurara had the most chance.

Pen3 · 2013-02-20, 22:46

If it goes along with my fantasy then i pair him with Gitsune

But we can expect him to save the world! *nod*

defki · 2013-02-20, 23:28

Ugh. An ok ending but still ugh.

I hate rushed endings with a passion.

Would have prefered ch 207 as the ending. Looked awesome imo. Open end with both sides attacking each other. Sigh, oh well.

Open ending where two sides attack one another? How in seven hells is that even remote to being good? -_-;

Did they every resolve the issue with the curse nura got in the previous arc (the one with the one hundred stories)?

Nothing was said about it, but seeing as Hagoromo Gitsune was the one who cast it and since she is now both an ally to Nura's and fused with Yamabuki, she no doubt lifted it.

Which means he can have little Nuras with Tsurara... Open ended but heavily implied isn't all that bad.

chrono25 · 2013-02-21, 20:04

while the ending was really bad for such a good series the plot wasnt bad the third heir becoming a master of yokai but what I liked best was the setting of the story plot yokai being like mob families

Nayrael · 2013-02-22, 07:17

BTW, I don't remember it being mentioned in this tread, but final Tankobon Volume will have ~75 extra pages to be filled. It is possible that final chapters get expanded or there being few omakes that possibly show some of future events

How is it any worse than what we got now? I think 207 would have been a perfect final chapter. No rushing, open end and room for more/interpretation. I don't expect people to agree with me.

A closure is good and all but again for me nothing is worse than a rushed ending.

220 would have been the perfect final chapter... with one future chapter after he's mated with all of the 3 harem members.... ah well that's what doujinshi is for...

Nayrael · 2013-03-01, 12:46

Oh, and the omake canonized a pairing

Find out who won.

Spoiler:

Pencil rough draft
Ariyuki's death. The fifth is Ariyuki's child, revolt and leave the family and built Gokadoin, also the one who create the spring in half yokai village
Encho stealthily tried to runaway, but Yanagida stabbed him. Yanagida is also Nose, as with Sanmoto's nose (bell) he sniff around for horror story

The 3rd's generation story start with Shoei report to his father while visiting his grave, he's the one who defeated Ibaraki. There, Rikuo and Zen who also visiting the grave for victims from their clan appear. Actually, when they are child, the 3 of them play together. When Rihan and then Zen's father died, the 3 make an oath to protect the clan. Shoei's mother is a human, so he's half human. Zen and Shoei have argument on who is number one follower, finished by they saying to protect their oath that time (this story draft is written by anime 2nd season scriptwriter)

Rikuo going mad is about him getting drunk, beside seducing the girls (Kejoro, Sasami, Wakana, Gozumaru (drunk and crossdressed), Nuregarasu, Kejoro again) he also said rash remarks to the guys, when the clan try to stop him, Tsurara that happent to be there is forcefully matoi-ed (but their dialogue make it looks like Rikuo trying to forcefully xxx Tsurara...)

Dark Pawnshop, Ryuji acting as Dark Pawnshop in the front of a suspicious collector, Ryuji's intention is to destroy an organization who make deals with real yokai's corpse. He heard the real dark pawnshop info from the collector and there info about hunter who hunt down yokai and sell them out, Ryuji got counterattacked by the shopkeeper but with Yura's help, he win. Main house's eldest son die young, so he has resolution to become foundation for Yura and other Keikain, but now, he wants to walk together longer with Yura and the others, so he make himself believe that the curse already removed

Hagoromo Gitsune bring wounded Rikuo to half yokai village. Previously, when Gitsune still laying in the spring, there was also Rihan's corpse. Rihan and Yamabuki's soul met, and because of her love, Yamabuki try to release Rihan free and back out. When stabbed by Otome, Rihan felt guilt as he thinks that Yamabuki resent him and he was unable to make her happy. Their misunderstanding is solved, but while she want to go to the road to underworld with him, Otome said that there is still something he need to do as Yamabuki Gitsune.
To finish things with "this body"'s son, Seimei, Hagoromo Gitsune went.
And now, thanks to Rikuo, Seimei is death and with him, Shinoda no Bakegitsune also went along and the curse is removed. Otome's soul back to Rihan's side.
Rihan leave word that he entrust Wakana to waking Rikuo
Hagoromo Gitsune is now exist not as Kitsune or Otome, but as independent "The boss of Kyo Yokai" and go home with Kyokotsu.

Omake no omake
Setsura said that he will go home tomorrow, so during tomorrow, Tsurara has to steal Rikuo's lips. That word make Tsurara unintentionally conscious of Rikuo. Rikuo and Kana in the gym's storehouse, hearing that Tsurara's worried of Toloveru accident may happened and go there, but Kana already go home. On the contrary, Tsurara and Rikuo get a trouble.
When Tsurara try to help Rikuo in the gym's storehouse, the luggage falldown and Rikuo and Tsurara get glued down together, they're in a good mood and Rikuo try to kiss Tsurara and get his face closer
But then Ao appear and nothing happened
In the postscript, Shiibashi-sensei said that by writing the curse removal and this Rikuo and Tsurara scene, he finally feel that he has finished the manga.

And in the back of cover, everyone drinking, but there is jeering about Rikuo and Tsurara as "elder sister wife", "younger golden straw sandal" (from Japanese proverb of 年上の女房は金の草鞋を履いてでも探せ Look for elder wife even if you have to wear golden straw sandals)

In the illustration book, Rikuo Tsurara night festival date illust that was used for fanletter's reply also there.

May the winning Ship celebrate
