Just as episode fourteen set us up for a more intriguing instalment this time around, so the fifteenth instalment of Wagaya no Oinari-Sama prefers to keep that sense of intrigue going, as the current storyline proves to be far from over. The focus of this episode is Kuugen's efforts to find Noboru after he was kidnapped last episode, and although you could argue that Kuu was acting out of

I get plenty of deliveries to my door each week as part of my work, but thus far I'm yet to find any white-haired girls with red eyes land up on my doorstep, not least one delivered by a giant cat. It's probably for the best, to keep me out of the mental institution for a little longer, but it appears that this is exactly the kind of thing that happens when you share your house with a demon fox.

Having had the inevitable hot springs episode last time around, it's now time for Wagaya no Oinari-sama to dish out the equally ubiquitous culture festival instalment. I'm sure it doesn't take the work of a genius to figure out that Kou plus a haunted house equals trouble... Cliched it might be, but in all fairness to this particular episode, it was actually pretty entertaining and amusing at

I'm pretty sure some kind of international law dictates that every anime series must have at least one hot springs episode, and thus to avoid a long prison term for all of its script writers so Wagaya no Oinari-sama ensures that its mandatory requirements are fulfilled by giving us just that. After winning said hot springs trip as part of a lottery, we find the usual gang get to meet up with the

I can hear the fangirls kyaaing already… Funny thing when a supposedly plot-driven episode turns out to be a double dose of fanservice hiding in the bushes, don’t you think? Oh well, who couldn’t use a few extra laughs? Call me crazy, but Wagaya’s latest escapade struck me as a thinly veiled excuse to derail into [...]

With the whole Reverse Circle arc finally closed out by the end of episode ten, this particular instalment of Wagaya no Oinari-sama allows us to enjoy some more light-hearted fare (although to be fair even a 'serious' episode of this show isn't what you call deeply profound). With Kou still ramping up the list of breakages by the week, herself and Kuu finally decide that it's time to get a

「お稲荷さま。電話をかける」 (Oinari-sama. Denwa wo Kakeru) "Oinari-sama. Making a Phone Call" Episode at a Glance: After Noboru tries to teach Kuugen how to call his cellphone yet again, Kou accepts a package that's marked for Tooru. Inside, they find a small white-haired girl wrapped in bandages, who's asleep and doesn't appear to be a vengeful spirit or a human. Seeing this, Haruki names her Shiro-chan because she's all white.

The Mighty Bargain Hunter stalks his prey. There are good fillers and there are bad fillers. Some build characters. Others build budget. Wagaya’s latest installment thankfully belongs to the former, pausing for a nice slice of life before the next story arc and giving new meaning to the expression ‘comic relief’. Kou-chan works overtime to [...]
