Would like it if the show was more consistent in what shows after the OP.

So fake-mom redeemed herself, but if not for Hyakkimaru her sacrifice would have been in vain.

Wasn't too clear if Hyakkimaru actually killed another demon or not.

I mean, he clearly says it was a clay statue, and was going to hunt the demon no matter where it goes

I remember this episode from the remake, I like how they highlighted the relationship between Dororo and the demon shape-shifter more in this original adaptation.

Learned something new here, you can apparently silence people by throwing a bowl to their face. Fudou statue in this version seems way more powerful (with him controlling the weather and wolves at his command) than the remake one who just swinged his sword a bit.

I think that was probably the weakest mini-arc so far; however much he misses his mom, I don't quite think I buy Dororo being that immediately trusting. Still, the ending delivered, as has been the case with basically all of these stories.
