okay, okay. I'll stop there.

Still, I'll never get tired of her fervent, glittering eyes.

+5. She's my favorite character in the series, and I'm glad she finally joined the others in ch. 92.

Well I am just sayingg that might be the reason nurarihyon wouldnt touch her grandmother

The "Are you trying to kill me?" Wwhen she got really flirty. I dunno, it is indeed a battlemanga, but the author could use it as an excuse for an open ending in that department too.

They still can have descendants after all. It's probably hard, but they can try to avoid kissing directly...

But the various methods used to get to the point of creating descendants would be drattically limited, unless Rikuo llikes popsicles(sp)....

Didn't it say somewhere in the manga that Tsurara and others changed their forms to match Rikuo?

I always thought that was how they looked "human" for when Rikuo was in school. Besides, we see Tsurara's mother 400 years ago and they look very similar, if they had other forms she probably would've been in it for the fight in Kyoto.

Tsurara changes her height i think. Shes taller than Rikuo in his day form otherwise.

Yuki-onna looks like a maiden anyway. I thought the literal translation is "Snow Woman". So what you are seeing now is most likely her true form.

Tsuchigomo is a beast...! A battle freak.

Shikigami or not. I think even Hidemoto 400 years ago couldn't take him on directly, that's why he needed to seal him away instead of defeating him and the reason why Tsuchigomo calls him a coward.

Sure, Tsuchigomo is very strong. But I think there must be a deeper meaning in saying that he's an ayakashi that they must not encounter. Maybe there's a secret to his existence, or his seal, or that he has a special role to defeating Kitsune later on.

I'm still of the opinion that Hidemoto is telling them to run away because he's too powerful a foe for them to take on.

Besides his immense physical strength, the legend described the Tsuchigumo as:

Quote:
Historically, the "Tsuchigumo" or "Earth Spider" was said to be a derogatory term for mountain-dwelling race or a band of thieves, who came to be portrayed as literal arachnids in art and literature. Tales of giant spiders may have actually arisen independently and reach back even farther in Japanese culture, but the Tsuchigumo became the most famous by name, and is commonly portrayed as a colossal, predatory monster of great magical power and malevolent intelligence. Armed with toxic silk, deadly breath and a wide array of duplicitous transformations, it often appears as a beautiful woman or small child to ambush human prey. Paralleling the dragon-slaying knights of medeival Europe, many stories pit the Tsuchigumo and similar monsters against famous samurai warriors.
From this we can assume this is only the tip of his powers. His "fear" might be overwhelming.

And interesting enough Tsuchigumo was mostly portrayed as a woman.
