'Twas honestly such a huge slap to Matoba that the whole conflict got resolved with non-violent action lol. like he’s standing there with all his weapons and Natsume just uses empathy. It’s so rare to see Matoba's human side too, loved the flashbacks here and there showing his past with Natori. As usual, Nyanko sensei spoiled again lol he completely sold out for those loquats.
