I agree. I'm glad I stuck with the series ... frankly, I completely yawn in the "action scenes" but the daily life routine from the collision of these wonderfully odd personalities is what makes the show enjoyable for me.
Kou in particular has this wonderful "alien dropped in the regular world" thing going on with some potent latent sensuality.

I know a lot is in the writing and animation, but I really think Hayami Saori is bringing both those things to the role: some extremely odd diction to create an alien feeling, and "potent latent sensuality" in her voice. I agree wholeheartedly in preferring the slice-of-life aspects of this show to the fighting.

Talking about the fox girl


Idk if you look at the trailer before the show came out another fox girl is shown sitting next to kuu eating on a bench with her so I doubt Momiji is the main fox girl in the op with kuu but I think that girl is a fox too.

[Angrypokstick]

whoever said Momiji is a Fox?

[Midonin]

Misaki is adorable. I love her crazy love theories.

Spoiler for Episode 8 of Wagaya No Oinari-sama:

Mubiyou ~ she need more training when it comes to ventriloquism.




And her first meet with Tooru,whom happens to be her target.




Kuu




*Nosebleed*

Well at least she won't loose to Kou in terms of fanservices


Noboru should somehow hide all the magazines and books that could attract Kuu's attention,or else Kuu will start her crazy act asking for *nearly-impossible* request to Noboru and Tooru..




Noboru..and...the person whom Noboru think resembles a tanuki....although i'm certain the mask that person wear doesn't look like a tanuki...






Yes.Noboru is clever and know what he should do when a stranger trying to get near him (unlike his lil bro Tooru ).







So their first destination to find the clues of the Sakasaen's whereabout is...




Mubiyou is truly a scary and fearsome god..






Mubiyou straightly reject Kuu's invitation to the pool..




And Kuu figured the reason of why Mubiyou don't want to go to the pool..





I can't believe that Mubiyou is actually a flat chested god,despite of her good looking and nice figure.


Eye catch for today




If destroying the telephone is not enough to show her true strength,then this one should be a good proof.







Mubiyou came to the town in search for the item Sakasaen,that has the power to reverse the cycle of Gogyo or Five Elements (or so i think she says like that if i got the translation correctly)...Kai told her everything of what happened before,including the fact that he invaded Tooru's dream before.From there she concluded that Kai had actually gave Tooru the Sakasaen during that time..which means that the Sakasaen was actually located inside Tooru's head.

But she can't just take Tooru away without anyone knowing about it since she is wandering around Ebisu's governed area,and it is wrong for her to kill/harm someone on area which she doesn't have any ruling power on it..beside Tooru is still wearing the kumihimo (refer to ep 2) that Kuu gave to him.So her only chance of doing it will be when she and Tooru are standing on the area where she regain her power back (which also means the area that she governed as a land god),and that area happens to be Noboru's school (Akagi high School).So all she need to do is to lure Tooru to that area without Kuu being suspicious of her.But she's not the only one that trying to find the treasure Sakasaen.

So....about today's episode...WHY MY KOU ONLY GET A FEW SECONDS SCREEN TIME...although she appear being dojikko as usual (i like that one)..but still,i need more Kou!And,Ogami manage to get himself a new job thanks to Mubiyou And i'm not sure if i miss the part where they explain of how the Sakasaen can be at Daigoro (thanks Serenade Beta for correcting me,since i don't really check their names in the official page) neck.Did i miss it?

I'm not sure how to rate Mubiyou's first appearance in today's episode..all i can get from her is an impression that she is cute + weird. I hope to see more of her in the future episodes.

Spoiler for Next week preview:

- Kou is in danger....?
- Male Kuu form appear uhuhu...i need more Kou..
- The preview is abit confusing on one part,when Mubiyou try to untie the bind on her leg,then suddenly Mubiyou "change" into a dark brown beast figure..i'm not sure if those scenes are connected to each other,since there's one noticeable difference between both scene that should prove that i'm wrong,but those scenes surely looks like it is connected to each other.

*fixing few things*

[serenade_beta]

Spoiler for ep8:

Hmm, I thought this was a good episode. Mubyou was a strange character (sometimes, not in a good way), and the fight was interesting (with the illusion and tricks). Not a great episode, but it was still enjoyable.

-Tooru sure is trusting. Normally, you would run in the opposite direction if some stranger with two puppets on her hands started suddenly talking to you... Those type of people are dangerous.
Then again, Fukurou isn't any less suspicious... ( -_-; )

-The chase scene between Fukurou and Noboru was extra funny since Noboru=Nagasumi.

-Oogami?! He's working at the school now?!

Well, about the new characters...

Fukurou was didn't get to do much. His only appearance seemed to be chasing Noboru. The tanuki that appeared later... doesn't seem to be Fukurou.

Mubyou... Not sure what to say about her. Well, I guessed right and she is bi-polar... Acting cute and friendly one moment, and pretty creepy the next...
Seems she doesn't have any special abilities except for super physical abilities, like punching craters in the ground... Don't dislike her, but don't really like her either.


Preview: Fukurou makes more of an appearance; Fight between the non-humans, Fukurou uses strings(?), he hypnotizes Kou, a rock slams into his head...

Mubiyou came to the town in search for the item Sakasaen,that has the power to reverse the cycle of Gogyo or Five Elements (or so i think she says like that if i got the translation correctly)

Close.
Mubyou was talking about Gogyou (五行), or better known as Wu Xing, the five elements of traditional Chinese philosophy (wood, fire, earth, metal and water).
I assume the element lessons/fights in this series involves Wu Xing...

And i'm not sure if i miss the part where they explain of how the Sakasaen can be at Daigoro. Did i miss it?

You kind of missed it. The tanuki explained (rather, shouted) that the sakasaen he stole and hid had disappeared. Turns out that Daigoro just happened to find, steal, and wear it.

(thanks Serenade Beta for correcting me,since i don't really check their names in the official page)

I didn't find it on the official website. The name was on the credits in the ED, and that is how it is romanized.

I haven't watched ep 8 yet and I have to ask.
Any idea who voiced her?

[margafred]

I'm not sure why ppl put Sakura Misaki as a tag for this series...i think i know who did it but i don't really mind anyway

Spoiler for reply:

When i try to find info about Gogyou in Wikipedia,it redirects me straight to Wu Xing page,which also contains the info about the five elements.I know Gogyou and Wu Xing are related to each other,but i can't seem to find the kanji used in today's episode to mark the respective elements.The only page about Gogyou that i manage to find is this one which explain abit (although not as detailed as the one in Wiki) the cycle of Gogyou.

Spoiler for reply:

Yeah i know already which part of it when that tanuki said it.Thanks for telling

Spoiler for reply:

If you know me,i never really watch the credits and read the whole CV list...i usually just close my eyes and listen to that beautiful ED song and hoping that the ED single will come faster

A playful onee-san that appears in front of Tooru one day.
In the hot summer, she is wearing a coat and even a muffler.
Her trademark are the puppets on her hands.

Searching for something, she asks for Tooru's help.
She calls Ebisu "Ebi-chan", and seems to know Kuu-chan as well...

Thoughts:
Sorry, when I saw "Ebi-chan", I immediately thought of shrimp...
Now what could be she searching for...

Who do you think did it?

The tag was taken out anyways... o|￣|＿

Spoiler for Hmm?:

It's right there, on Wikpedia and the other website.
Wood=木 (moku)
Fire=火 (ka)
Earth=土 (do)
Metal=金 (gon)
Water=水 (sui)
It just looks a little different because of the way it was written.

Or are you talking about something else.

EDIT: Someone put in Kou this time!
Kuu is sad, all alone while the other two got tag fame (for a while...)

Sad...needs more kuu love ;_____;

ep 8

Spoiler:

Well I loved this ep

If I had to describe Mubyou's personality, I guess I would say that she is a Yandere. All cute and nice only to reveal that deadly side of hers. I cringed when she said that the Sakasaen was inside Tooru's head .

But in all I find both sides of her interesting. She is very cute but very unstable and dangerous (just my type of girl...you have to keep your guard up with her ).

Speaking of cute, Yay Kuu has her hair back! ^^ and her naggy cute monents were done spot on this week. I laughed when she teased Mubyou about her chest side...telling a god that she lacked the necessary component to being a female isn't a bright idea.

The fight wasn't bad either. Much more creative than usual and shows Mubyou's awesomely destructive power (honestly, I do not want to get sucker punched by her :uhoh).

And oogami...good thing he wasn't a traitor O.o

Daigoro is still cute ^^ (I heard the "D" sound this time ).

Needs more Kou, can't wait for next ep ^^

And we still don't know what this Sakasaen thing is. I will laugh it if turns out to be something random and not worth fighting for in the first place. Dibs on it being jewellery

[Kana Futayo]

*gives himself a tsukkomi*

Very sorry, I wasn't paying attention and didn't noticed that serenade_beta already posted the name of the seiyuu of Mubyou.

my clumsy side strikes again

[z3phyr.mp3]

Spoiler for ep 8:

wow...
love mubyou's voice... she goes to her miyako voice often and and she uses what seems to be her laharl voice for one of her puppets...
and speaking of laharl, is it just me or did i hear one of the disgaea tracks during this episode... during the mubyou's conversation with kuu and noboru at the takagami household after the, sadly very short, kou scene....(maybe it's just me)

[arkxkra]

Spoiler for ep8:

not bad, i feel like land god usually got problem, the neighbour land god Mubiyou believe Sakasaen is inside Tooru head, o.O".

Noboru quite fun, when he meet that non human(?), pretend dunno and go away .

Kuu was done a good job, the reason why Mubiyou don't want to go to pool, . Kuu also have a good plan to fool Mubiyou, nice fight.

[Angrypokstick]

That scene with Kuu flaunting her umm...."assets" in front of Mubyou was made of win.

[serenade_beta]

Kou fans get to enjoy the cover.

The full ED was pretty good (still like the OP better), but it wasn't impressive (EDs like Chain and We'd Get There Someday are better ones). Still pretty peaceful song though, despite the fact they say "daijobu" so many times, I felt like it was going to get burnt into my mind). 8/10, give or take .5
I didn't realize Kou was singing until now...

As for Miracle Way, it was a great song. 9/10
I like the tone of the song, and the lyrics were not as repetitive as the ED. Thinking about it, this isn't the type of song I would listen to continuously though... Sparingly, then OK.

OP still rocks, by the way.

Anyways, now about that spoiler-filled cover...

Spoiler:

My thoughts on the 8 pics, from left to right | top to bottom

1. Not new, next
2. O_O?! Is this a flashback? The fox looks younger than she appears in the OP...
3. ............... Did Kuu get fat?
4. Noboru is popular, huh... What's that building in the background...?
5. Not new either, pass
6. Just happened, passing traffic
7. Megane-detective is an enemy? Not a demon, it seems, since Kou seems to be binded by Megane's spell/star, which looks like the Wu Xing star...
8. ...*speechless*

[Angrypokstick]

got any pics of said cover?
And doesn't it seem odd that if Mubyou was wearing all that cloth to just hide the fact she is flat chested. Then why the hell was she wearing all that cloth to cover her legs. Doesn't it seem odd now that the only part of her thats exposed at all is her face.

ohh thanks. Look like they are moving into the white ghost arc after they deal with the sakesaen arc, which means they are sticking relatively close to the novel and that is a very good things.
And the building in the background on pic 4 looks western. The arcs and support make it look like the inside of a roman building, a church most likely.
