Episode synopsis
When Abeno is hired to exorcise a yokai by a human, he unenthusiastically heads to the client's house with Ashiya and Fuzzy. The girl who hired him is unable to see yokai but is interested in the occult and seems very interested in their work. Abeno asks Ashiya to watch the door while he works so nobody bothers him, but the girl's mother, who doesn't believe in the supernatural, begins asking Ashiya some nosy questions.
About The Morose Mononokean
Ashiya has spent the first seven days of high school stuck in the infirmary because of a youkai attaching itself to him. He ends up asking the owner of a small tea room called the "Mononokean" for help. This is a tale involving the very morose owner of Mononokean guiding the youkai that happened to wander into this world go to the next world.
