Episode Title:
The God Goes to Mount Kurama.Episode Description:
Botanmaru begs Kurama to return to Mount Kurama because Sōjōbō, the third chief of the tengu village, has collapsed, filling the area with a cloud of miasma. Kurama recalls that he was mistreated by the villagers when he was younger, due to being Sōjōbō's son, but only Suiro treated him like an older brother. Nanami and Tomoe go to Mount Kurama with Kurama and Botanmaru, walking through a foggy forest. Kurama encounters an evil Suiro wielding a scythe, but he figures out that it was a hallucination after hearing a flute playing nearby, having nostalgia about Suiro. Once the four enter the village, they are welcomed by Suiro, who sadly lives in a dilapidated house away from the compound. It is shown that Yatori is really serving under Jirō, who is awaiting and determined to become the successor to the throne in a few days. As Nanami runs in the forest to use the restroom, she comes across a rotting cherry blossom tree, where three crow tengu yokai children explain that it is a thousand-year-old sacred tree. Nanami uses her powers to restore the cherry blossom tree, and the children leave with excitement, although her powers only make it last temporarily. As the leaves fall, Jirō stares directly at Nanami with a speechless face.
