The God Receives a Romantic Confession.Episode Description:
Nanami uses a white talisman to find the location of Sōjōbō's soul, although it leads her to a dead end. However, Jirō finds her and reveals a hidden passageway to a cave. He tells her that a thunderbolt beast there has permanently disabled Suiro from flying after saving Kurama in the past. When Nanami and Jirō encounter the thunderbolt beast, Jirō is badly wounded while protecting Nanami. Tomoe finds them and defeats the thunderbolt beast, which actually contains Sōjōbō's soul. Jirō confesses his love for Nanami before passing out, while Kurama and Botanmaru leave to return the soul back to Sōjōbō, who later awakens fully cured. Jirō is given peach pills to recover, and he recalls Sōjōbō telling him not to be hard on himself for making mistakes in life. The mountain gradually heals, and an eternal cherry blossom celebration commences. Jirō takes Nanami high up onto the cherry blossom tree, wishing for her to remain in the tengu village with him. He thanks her for the peach pills and returns the rest of them to her, surprised that she originally got them to give to Tomoe as a parting gift someday. Jirō asks her to stay a little while longer so that he may always remember her with the cherry blossoms. Later on, Nanami gets drunk and Tomoe carries her on his back. She falls asleep after confessing her love, to which Tomoe silently confesses his love in reply.
