I love this show.

Very relaxing SoL with good visual appeal. Reminds me of GJ-bu or Acchi Kocchi.

I'm glad the first ep did so much recapping, it's been so long since the last season I forgot almost all the details about the series.

Looking forward to more Natsume.

I wonder if the story will progress far enough to explain kuro sensei keychains and such I saw the last time I was in japan.

Japan; where being called a lair is the worst and most offensive thing you can say to someone.

GO AWAY

SHOO

Beats HorribleSubs

this got way too adorable, way too fast for my nuttlbadder to properly handle.

Silly weak little humans, becoming ill from just a little water. Can you imagine that?

>>27135
They're equally bad, just in different ways. Though if you understand a bit of Japanese you can just listen over Commie's localised translations.

She said 'okonomiyaki'.

Am I wrong in thinking his current family would probably be very supportive of his issues if he came out about it already?

>>27202

Nope.
But Natsume has been burned by trying that when he was younger, and he would rather keep it in the closet than risk losing the current family.

Though it would be quite odd if they weren't fairly well aware of the schizo's three way conversations with the walls and the super fat cat at this point.

>>27203
haha, yeah they're surely heard him talking to himself more than once.

Taki episode next, hell yea!

Would you let Natsume face palm you?

>>27238

I wouldn't resist, if that's what you mean.

>>27234
Hell yeah.

those little rats were so fucking cute
srsly omg

Deaf natsume is cute.

They save his ass and offer to bring him medicine because they think he's someone else. Shouldn't he just go with it until he gets that medicine?

What is the significance of Reiko's book of friends? Did she literally just create it because she was lonely and incapable of making friends with human people? By giving back all the names, Natsume is essentially tearing out pages of her diary one by one until all traces of her lonely life are gone.

Isn't it sad to go around meeting all your grandmother's friends after she died and explain to them that she's already passed on. Why is this show so depressing?

>>27370
You're right I believe, and yeah it is kind of is sad. Although it's good to keep in mind that at some point or another she did manage to find a guy and have a kid with him. Otherwise Natsume wouldn't be there right?

>>27299
They were bunnies!

>>27375
K A W A I I ! ! !

>>27370
It goes deeper.
Reiko also wasn't an exorcist, she didn't understand what it meant to bind a youkai by their true name.

So, her "friends" were forced to obey her every word, which then makes any interaction with them fully subservient and with very little companionship... which then leads to Reiko leaving to find a new set of friends in search of that companionship. Again and again, at least, until she graduates high school (or of that similar age), where she stopped adding names to the book.

He really should have let natural selection take it's course with these two.

Who needs Halloween when you got old ladies to collect candy from? They always have a ton on them and love handing it out.

This episode makes up for the filler crap earlier.

I wonder how Natsume sees the Yukata...

Just downloaded all 341mb of ep 10 in less than 12s

Thanks peers!

More natsume!

This was pretty nice ep, it was really sweet.

>>27542
Here's hoping it never ends.

I'm going to hijack the previous Natsume thread instead of making a new one.

To kick things off with season 6,

Natsume meets a pothead and goes on a magical journey through his youth and makes Taki a mother.

Season 73 fucking when?

retirement old folks home anime viewing

>Natsume meets a pothead and goes on a magical journey through his youth and makes Taki a mother.
This is a very accurate summery of the first ep of this season.

I think they were exaggerating a bit about how nice those paintings looked...

Serious Face episode.

The guest appearance by Ayumu Kasuga in ep4 was a really nice surprise, looks like she will be back for the next episode too.

>>28690
Yeah that was great.

Well, that arc ended on quite the ominous note.

a substantial fraction of the animation was missing from ep7, it was somewh like watching a hanna barbera cartoon

Is living on the second floor of a house weird in japan or something? I've never seen this sort of thing mentioned before, yet they brought it up a couple of times in this ep.

>>28806
Maybe it's just how the idea of taking up extra space is expressed in Japanese, a transliteration over a translation? I dunno, I don't speak the language so I could be all wrong but that would be my guess at least.

>>28806
I think houses with more than one floor are pretty uncommon in Japan, but this might be referring to something else like >>28807 said.

Seriously?

I find it hard to believe there are things that both Madara's light is not strong enough to work against yet are weak enough for Natsume to hold his own in a fist fight against... there are more natural ways to remove the characters from the scene for the two one off characters to be alone with each other.

>>27200
The issue with Commie is that they sometimes just put unfunny memes in their subs which is nothing like what the character said instead of actually transalating their dialogue.

Good ep. It was nice getting a glance into her life like that.

>>28857

I think the point was more of just how poorly the forced outburst was written.

and next week, we get the continuation of the Natori arc.

>>28839
I agree, it was kinda awkward. One of natsume's human friends could have shown up instead and dragged him away. Or the guy could have just realized it'd be better to leave them alone and kept some distance.

>>28921
It was still kind of sweet all the same.

This episode didn't have enough Hiiragi in it.

>>28941
None of them ever do.

I guess I need to go rewatch the first couple of seasons, I didn't remember kuro sensei's episode at all.

And we get a new aspect of Reiko's past hinted toward. That's a mean way to end a series that won't get another anime series for at least a year or so.

>>28966
don't sweat cliffhangers & backstory in slices of life, nothing of consequence will ever happen, just relax & take is easy.

This never gets old.

i just finished watching Go and it was pretty good, though not as good as the previous seasons. i really wish they would show more reiko though or at least a backstory, i'm really interested to know how / when she died or how she lived her life (besides taking spirit's names)

>>29199
She gets a dedicated ep in season 6 as the mc, but yeah it's still amazing how little they've explored the character over six seasons. This show is nice and all, but it really moves at a snails pace.

>>29200
the snail pacing is one of the things i like most about it. very relaxing show to watch
