Episode Title:
The God Goes Back to Being a Child.Episode Description:
In his shrine, Kirihito goes into the Netherworld with Yatori using a stone mirror to retrieve Akura-Ou's body. Once there, Yatori, who claims he formerly served under Akura-Ou, remembers how Akura-Ou and Tomoe traveled together and defeated any yokai that stood in their way, but Kirihito gets angry over the fact that Tomoe abandoned Akura-Ou after falling in love with a human girl. Although Akura-Ou's body is found on a mountain of fire, Yatori brings Kirihito back home since their bodies cannot handle the miasma within the Netherworld. Kirihito is now determined to do whatever necessary to reclaim Akura-Ou's body. However, after fumes start to leak out of the stone mirror, Kirihito is forced to smash it before things get any worse. Meanwhile, Nanami receives a proposal to host a wedding for Himemiko, but Tomoe is dismayed when Mizuki encourages her too much about it. Nanami, Tomoe and Mizuki head to the entrance of the Year God Shrine to receive a new talisman for the new year. Upon arrival, Nanami passes her labeled gate, despite Tomoe's orders to stay put. As Tomoe and Mizuki later passes through her gate, they are surprised to see that Nanami is transformed into a child, twelve years younger. In a flashback, Nanami's gambling father brings her a piece of chocolate before leaving again, while her ill mother is heckled by debt collectors, before Nanami returns home.
