This episode was just too hilarious. Sometimes I feel secondhand embarrassment because of how ridiculous everything gets, but that's exactly what makes it so funny. 😂 I loved this episode. Mechako and the male protagonist's chemistry was chaotic in the best way possible.

Probably the most unhinged cursed objects have appeared in this episode. 😭 I loved it, though. Another ridiculously fun episode that genuinely made me laugh out loud.

I'm really loving Shurako as that villain who constantly fails and somehow makes the show even funnier. 😆 This series is so unhinged, and I'm absolutely here for it. It has been consistently entertaining.

Episode Context

Coming off Episode 4's identity-focused doppelganger storyline, Episode 5 steps away from that school-based tension and recenters on Shurako and a curse-related scramble, signaling the series' preference for standalone supernatural scenarios over long-running plot threads. At the midpoint of the 12-episode run, this episode reinforces the show's core formula: rotating which cast member drives the chaos while keeping the protagonist as the grounded (if reluctant) anchor. It sets the tone for the back half by broadening the ensemble dynamic and leaning further into the series' recurring parade of bizarre supernatural encounters.
