10/10 Mushishi Zoku Shou Episode 2: The Warbling Sea Shell

 

Near a village by the sea, a girl lives with her father on a secluded crag. She wants to make friends, but her father, for some reason, doesn't want her associating with the village people. When Ginko arrives, he finds a mushi that's an omen of disaster. Will the girl's father be able to forgive past events and help the village?


This week's episode was a bit sad but beautiful and profound. It's fascinating how Mushishi can make you feel something so strong for characters that appear for the first time on screen in less than a half hour. Go watch it!
