Tsugu Tsugumomo (Episode 22) – Revolt
What happened?
With it unlikely that another regional god will be able to come to their aid, Sunao Sumeragi arrives to offer her assistance. She’s transferred to Kazuya’s school and sees it as a chance to get closer to him. Only she’s ended up in the wrong class, but that’s not going to stop her. And if she doesn’t try she could face the wrath of her mother!
Akito spoke with Kazuya before returning to Mayoiga and discovered that he didn’t plan on torturing the flute Tsugumomo, believing that he could find her a suitable partner. Akito wanted to believe it could happen but is jaded from his own past. Upon arriving back in Mayoiga, they are attacked by another Tsugumomo who was instrumental in the revolt. They learnt from Tanmen that the revolt was fueled by the consumption of humans!
Sunao and Kazuya train together to prepare for the coming attack, although Kazuya seems to think he can resolve it without resorting to violence. Could Akito be the key to that and what is Kazuya’s link to Azami?

What did you think?
Another fun episode with more than enough bath scenes to qualify as a Tsugumomo episode. I’m glad to see Sunao back in it as I’m still shipping her with Kazuya. The developments in Mayoiga were interesting, especially with Tanmen reviving the founder who plans on fighting Kukuri himself while the others kill the Malison Cleansers. This was undoubtedly an episode focused on setting up the final confrontation which will possible take two episodes to resolve.
I’m getting ready for some serious action, a couple of bath scenes, and something big. There’s bound to be a shock in here somewhere and I’m looking forward to finding out what it is.
