>>157581835
It's a non-romance supernatural shoujo. It's very good. And now has six seasons.

I just marathoned the whole series in a week. I needed something healing, and Natsume was just perfect, I was hoping I could catch up to the currently airing episodes as well.

I now realize how much I have missed during these years, this show is just beautiful and warming as it gets. I love how the main theme of the series is how compassion towards others can change your own life, and how small gestures of generosity can make such huge beneficial effects on anyone’s life. The way Natsume opens up to kindness, and how that turns him into a more generous, devoted person as well, actually makes me feel inner peace. Honestly, this anime has truly inspired me to try my best at becoming a better person, one that takes their time to appreciate everyone and everything that surrounds them. To value the people around you, helping a bug that flipped on its way, taking quiet walks, and overally loving the little things of daily life a bit more. I feel bad that I came so late to the party, and I hope once this season ends we don’t have to wait for another four years, that’d be really sad.

I was wondering if any other anons have experienced this series in a kinda similar way, if the healing and comfy feels have had their impact on you as well. I for one am very thankful I finally watched it, it’s had a big positive effect on me.

>>157583566
Now that Shuka is more established as a studio (and rolling in the money from this franchise), I'd imagine we won't see another gap that long between seasons. Especially considering the volume and quality of the source material.

What I like the most about Natsume is the juxtaposition of the ephemeral human lives and the seemingly eternal spirits. I find it very beautiful, especially since spirits never forget even a small act of kindness and will be grateful for it as long as they exist.

This episode felt worthy of being a season closer.

This was nice. Reiko a cute.

It certainly makes for beautiful interactions between humans and spirits. It's so interesting to see that their problems are normal everyday problems that we all go through. Love, friendship, loneliness... You have these weird spirits and they are actually fragile like you and me, they communicate and feel like normal people, they aren't that different from us. I think the story makes a great job at bringing them closer to us, to show us how actually easy is to relate to others, even outer world creatures.
I also love how all these moving stories are always introduced and faced in a non overly dramatic way (like any other anime would do), but instead they are always approached with naturality, with a quiet and spontaneous empathy.

>>157583791
>and rolling in the money from this franchise
Are they on the production team?

>>157583915
If Natsume is going to hook up with anyone, its either going to be a Youkai or his grandmother.

Natsume should just make a giant harem and use his book of booty calls to get ahead in the world.

Why do some youkai look like humans?

>>157580581
Oh shit it's finally time for this arc? Aaa yeh

>>157587054

>>157583566
I had watched the series before, but spent this past week marathoning it to refresh myself. Right now, during a time of emotional turmoil in my life, it's the only thing that makes me feel truly peaceful and content. It's such a pure and beautiful thing that my enjoyment of it feels pure, too. It truly is what they call a "healing" anime. I know this sounds dumb and gay, but the series is very meaningful to me and I'm grateful for its place in my life. Glad you were able to experience it for yourself, anon.
>>157584602
>I find it very beautiful, especially since spirits never forget even a small act of kindness and will be grateful for it as long as they exist.
Right in the heart. This is one of the story's lovely qualities.

>>157586924
The same reason some youkai look like dogs or horses. They just do.

>>157586671

That's one hot yokai. Even Natsume had to comment on how pretty she was and was blushing.

>>157580334

Who was Natsume's grandfather, that he was able to heal Reiko?

>>157582997
Can Natsume even breed with a Youkai?

>>157582997
Add her to Natsume's youkai harem

>>157592710
Kill yourself

>>157593866
If Youkai's can get married, they can conceive as well. Unless it's Natsume that's the bride, then dunno.

So tell me, why Reiko doesn't want youkai friends again?

>>157594159
She's afraid. Like Natsume, she had been moved around and scared away too many people. If she makes friends, she's scared that they too will leave her as well.

>>157595011
So she left them instead, good plan.

>>157595608
That's normal though. People run away from others to avoid being pinned down by them.

How similar is this to xxxHoLiC?

>>157580334
Reiko episodes are the best episodes

>>157593642
nyanko-sensei

>>157596012
They're both supernatural

>>157583566
I also felt similar to you after I saw found out about it right after the first season finished airing. I ended up pulling an all-nighter to marathon it because it was just so good. One of the themes that had an impact on me was the way Natsume's life gets split between the yokai world and the human world and how foreign they are to each other. There are times I feel like I can relate to that being a part of multiple social groups that are completely different from each other.

>>157595608
I can't believe I have to make this post in another thread about a completely different series on this same day, but
>he doesn't self-isolate

>>157596012
Similar episodic supernatural stories, but Natsume has way better writing. Equal amounts of homo tho.

>>157580581
>>157581008
I don't know how I feel about this upcoming arc. When I read it, it really felt like it went against the themes that the series has been shitting out the the entire time, that humans and youkai just cannot be together.

>>157600405
There is literally nothing homo about Natsume

Very nice episode, more Reiko and beautiful youkai are always welcomed. The season is turning really nice, so far the episode with biggest impact has been episode 5, that shit caught me off guard. Mangafriends have been hyping this season, I would love for it to top S3's episode 4.

Isn't Natsume a lot more short-tempered this season? Did he finally hit puberty?

>>157601207
All that youkai puss got to him.

>>157601207
I think it shows his personal growth.He's more comfortable with who he is and who he's around. its natural to show more emotion when your comfortable

other way around

Most yokai are pretty dumb. Natsume and his team of smart and powerful yokai are probably the strongest team in their universe. Could probably crush the Marina's if he wanted.

>>157587184
Yea, definitely healing is what I would describe it. Heartwarming, bittersweet and healing.
I think it's actually considered a subgenre by japs 癒し系/iyashikei

What kind of haircut is Natsume's? I am curious because it looks nice and formal. And I guess he doesn't cut it himself anymore...

>>157586924
Most of these youkai are based on local legends and tales from around Japan. Shinto has no central church, so every village often had their own tales of gods and spirits

Is the original manga already over?

>>157608262
Nope. It can go on for another decade.

>>157600851
Pretty sure Natsume is for Matoba.

>>157608291
How do they find enough material to produce so many seasons?

>>157608533
More anime can be made as long as the source material goes on. The manga has new content for the ongoing plot and also expanded on teenage Natori and Matoba.

>>157608590
Isn't it a monthly though? Haven't they caught up to the manga?

>>157608760
It was but it went bimonthly a few years ago. The anime had a 4yr break so there's a number of un-adapted chapters. It's possible for another season but it would be too soon.

Reminder.

I miss the love stories from the start of the manga. Natsume acting as a stand-in for the men cute spirits fell in love with was nice.

>>157608760
S1 was nearly a decade ago now.
Each season adapts roughly 3 volumes of content and the manga is at volume 21 now.

>>157609546
I'm shocked there hasn't been a spirit that fell in love with Natsume yet, unless Hiiragi is suppressing feelings for him. But she seems more like an Onee-san.

>>157601022
Nah Taki is for Natsume but i higly doubt that Natsume is gonna end up with anybody

>>157608406
Matoba is too big for Natsume.

>>157610518

>>157610420
I'm sure there are some that still love Natsume, it's just that it isn't the main focus.

>>157612382
Aside from Hinoe, I don't think any of them feel in love with him though. They just used his body as a substitute, or they only appeared for I've story before vanishing, like all the bird ones.

And Hinoe's just comic relief.

>>157613290
Consider this: nobody ever talks about Reiko's husband. And our hero heard a story about a man that looked like Reiko a single time. Reiko also said she fell in love to a childhood friend, but we never hear who. From these fragments, we can surmise that maybe Reiko fell into an abusive relationship, was raped, reacted like many women victims do by adopting a boyish look, and gave birth to a rape baby before dying.

Alternatively, she was actually Natsume's mother and her father is Natsume's father. Remember, it was rumored that his mom was spiritually strong.

Some anons so dislike Reiko and thinks she's a bitch for what taking the real names of innocent yokai.

This one is my favorite. Natsume travelling to his childhood house, sitting in the sunset all alone and then quietly crying while remembering his father was very touching for me.

It was a great way to say farewell to that season and a beautiful turning point in Natsume's evolution as person.

>>157616399
When will he stop being so helpless?

>>157615436
Tell me about Hiiragi. Why does she wear the mask?

Was it ever said if his grandma actually died?

>>157616399
That scene was so well done. The flashbacks were so full of suffering but it shows that some of his relatives really cared about him. I haven't cried so hard from a Chinese cartoon since that finale.

>>157616665
Anon pls. They mention it every episode.

>>157616665
Yes, her body was found under a tree.

>>157616665
Yes and she had to die to reincarnate into Takashi.

>>157616665
Natsume keeps saying it, but we have no first hand evidence of it. Maybe she married a spirit and went to the spirit realm.

They actually make a way cuter couple than Hiiragi x Natori.

>>157618643
Actually, volumes 1-3 have excellent scan and script quality. It only really nosedives after volume 12.

>>157618643
It can't be worse than GTO, r-right?

>>157618833
That's because they keep showing concern and saving each other. The other spirit girls only show up once and fuck off.

What are the chances Natsume never gets stronger?

>>157620501
Stronger physically or do you mean his psychic powers? He has raw power.

Like, learning to use his spiritual power to help and protect others more than just stumbling into situations where he's helpless. It would be nice if he could like seal simple, dangerous oddities.

Not only did it pretend that a youkai and a human could fulfill their love, it goes really against the grain of all the human x youkai stories we'd seen up to this point. Unless it was setting up for Natsume to eventually find a cute girl of his own and foreshadow the troubles he'd have in a real relationship, it seems totally out of place.

Taki doesn't know anything about exorcism and can't see yokai.

>Pretty sure Natori is into youkai girls.
Natsume is not a girl! How rude!

>>157627923
Yeah but there's all those books and scrolls.

>>157628902
But there's no one to teach him.

>>157628989
Bit he can self-study, or with Taki.

>>157629168
How to when neither understands a thing.

>>157629168
Didn't you read/watch that part Natsume warning Taki not to play around with yokai arts? He won't involve her.

>>157629197
Taki's grandpa didn't understand either.

>>157629696
And that's also why he can't go to Taki's place to learn anything.

For some reason, all the chapters after the Matoba are really introduced remind me a lot of Baketeriya.

>>157616665
Nyanko is either his grandma or his grandpa.

>>157629779
That's exactly why he can go there. It's like a library full of knowledge and techniques that some total amateur actually managed to use without ever being able to see ayakashi. Someone like Natsume would get way more benefit from it.

That's only for ordinary people, not for Natsume.

Does Sanada in the anime do anything different in later seasons, or affect events?

Didn't Natori teach himself when he was younger? Natsume could do that too but I doubt he has the drive for it.

>>157634245
Yeah, they said Natori learned from storehouses, then apprenticed to Takuma, the ex-exorcist, when he started out. There's no reason for Natsume to not read up on the Ayakashi and techniques other than to keep him away from Taki.

I'd rather dead threads than this

I'm 100% het, and even I can see that the mangaka is really into lacing fujobait into the story. Natsume, Natori, and Matoba are all standard yaoi archetypes in the story. The only oddball curves are the ayakashi that had romantic moments with Natsume, where it was more like a traditional trashy shoujo, and Hiiragi and her weird way of worrying over Natsume.

>>157619414
Probably because Natsume is not a harem anime. If they show up again and going all clingy, the entire manga would fall apart.

>you will never punch Reiko

>>157621141
Becoming an exorcists means he can never hang out with Youkai's ever again. They would start avoiding him since no matter how nice Natsume is, they will be afraid of someone that can seal them for eternity.

>>157636665
I agree with that, but it'd be nice if the birds that Natsume kept saving stuck around a bit or showed up again as being willing to help him when he was in trouble.

>>157636732
He doesn't need to be an exorcist. He just needs to know more to control his powers. They even said Taki's family weren't exorcists, but almost the opposite, as onmyouji. And the stuff in her house seems to be the stuff rejected by exorcists.

>>157637617
He seems to be avoiding using his powers except when necessary. Natsume's approach is to befriend yokai, so I think he'll actively try to bridge the gap between humans and yokai when it comes to how exorcists treat yokai.

>>157635512
Why do people think Hiiragi has a thing for Natsume? All she did was asking him to take off his clothes.

>>157635103
remove Nyanko for being shit
