| Even Ginko got petrified for once. That was new, somewhat unexpected, exciting and kinda terrifying. The mighty hunter nearly got hunted there. Showed how it doesn't take long for tables to be turned. Staying humble is important. Never get too proud even if you have power. Another brilliant episode. Love how this show actually shows a lesson instead of just teaching it. |

Oomyung said: I love how Mushishi can be creepy, but beautiful at the same time. This episode was definitely both! well said Ot: Ginko got petrified that was scary with dem crows lol fox |
 |
| I must praise the atmosphere and visual direction like everyone else. And as usual the plots are extremely tightly written, I've always contended that short story writing is an incredible skill to have |
| Well that was intense.. |
 |
| Spooky episode, lots of shadows and fear, very good. |
 |
| His little brother Usuke is soooooooo adorbssssssssss omg <3 <3 <3 I'm glad the crows only ate his arm. I was worried they ate his whole body D: |
| disturbing episode ... and still i feel the eps wont give me those chills. something is different in those setups :/ |
 |
| Intriguing narration, this time it is the curiosity that springs from the bizarre of what is told to make interesting the vision of the episode, which is not at all tearful. As usual there is a basic message in what is narrated, a catchy ending. Ginko returns to the spotlight with full marks. |
 |
| So, what I got from this episode is: 1. Mushishi has a time set at near the Meiji era (1868-1912), as a weapon was used by the hunters. 2. Their father is still alive, he became the most terrifying creature in the mountain, because at the ending it was hinted that even the wildest animal feeling terrified by the unseen creature. Overall I think this is the darkest Mushishi episode ever. |
| His pride nearly caused his life. |
| hoooo big spook episode this time around, got me shivers at certain scenes won't lie. Jeeez this episode gave me major PTSD of camps i did with the army cadet force, night exercises where we would navigate the pitch black forests in complete silence would be scary and wild. I remember one time when we started our exercise it was relatively near the coast, when it started pissing down with rain. We pushed through the 5km walk to designated rondayvoo point, but a long the way it was already pitchblack, with cold wind being hurled at your face from the coast, along with rain that felt like hail you could barely see the other person ahead of you yet alone keep your footing on the uneven surface. All you could do really was hold tight onto your rifle while praying you were still following someone and watch your footing. It was wild, but weirdly fun for someone like me. |
| I got so scared at the part with the crows! Awesome episode! |
 |
| Another intense and truly great episode |
| It really boggles my mind how this series is able to achieve such a variety of atmospheres and emotions so effortlessly, what a thing of beauty to hehold. |
 |
| The darkest episode so far........ |
| Tatsu is really potrayed like a true evil |
| I guess Tatsu also cause the tree to rot... |
| I guess the rotten effect will only trigger when Tatsu touch the living being, in that case he could just lure the animal and rely on someone else to kill the living being so that it doesn't rot. |
| What a thrilling episode. The dark atmosphere really... I got an uneasy feeling while watching it, but either way, it was great episode as expected. lol, Ginko was shocked at the end. |
 |
| Everything about this episode was perfect to the vibe it wanted to portray. The yellow-tone that gives the 'decay' aesthetic to everything, the forest that feels oppressive and claustrophobic, the way Ginko says that human is at the top of the food chain with the shadow of a person standing there, literally everything was perfect. But also the theme of the episode was also well done, human might be at the top of the food chain but still isn't above nature or even Mushi. But our arrogance is what truly will be the downfall one day. Also how even Ginko felt fear at the end because of being in a forest surrounded by wild animals is such a cool thing to see. |

| I absolutely loved this one. Creature of the night, so dark. |
| Kinda serves him right to lose his arm like that. |
 |
| The decayed color pallet was fantastic. Green and yellow and brown, a sickly yet beautiful rot. |
