The ninja village setting is a nice change of pace, and Hachi's siblings are a fun addition to the cast. Yasha-oh is a solid villain not just a random monster, but a personal threat tied to Hachi's family history. The episode balances action, comedy, and genuine emotion in a way that makes it feel like one of the season's stronger entries. Also, Kurumi is absolutely going to be a menace and I love her already.
