English This episode felt more like a traditional comic book adaptation, which might be why it didn't resonate with me as much. That's the problem with my schizophrenic self, though — complaining that a show based on a comic looks too much like a comic. Regardless, I'm enjoying the playful world of Japanese yokai more than the overplayed European demons with Lucifer at the helm. / Lesson learned: An adult man ogling children at a playground with a pulsating ball in hand isn't just a threat to Japanese kids.
