A Brief Recap of Natsume’s Book of Friends Season 7 Episode 2

The second episode revolved around Takashi’s attempts to cultivate a flowerbed in the garden of Touka. He received guidance from Shigeru, who was eager to assist him. However, the stones that bordered the garden mysteriously disappeared each night. Upon investigation, Takashi discovered that mischievous Yokai were stealing the stones to help rebuild a Box Mansion for their Goddess, Shidahime-sama.

Moved by their determination, Takashi decided to aid in the restoration of the Box Mansion. He dedicated himself to the project, but was dissatisfied with the end result compared to what a skilled craftsman would have achieved. Nevertheless, his hard work was rewarded when Shidahime-sama visited the mansion, bringing joy to the Yokai.

What to Anticipate in Natsume’s Book of Friends Season 7 Episode 3?

In the upcoming episode, it is expected that the dynamic between Takashi and Madara will once again capture the audience’s affection. The humorous contrast of Madara’s adorable demeanor alongside his fondness for drinks and food creates an engaging character.

Takashi’s unique ability to perceive, interact with, and communicate with Yokai will be vital as he faces a new kind of Yokai that presents challenges in the next episode.
