Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits-

Umi-bouzo turns out to be a small crying child. Chibi scolds Aoi for not talking to Umi-bouzo as he is lonely and no one ever talks to him. Determined to make Umi-bouzo feel better Aoi lifts the screen, giving him a clear view and allowing everybody to see him. Aoi is given Tengu Alcohol and has a vision of Umi-bouzo trapped within the miasma, only allowed to leave his prison once a century. Aoi realises Umi-bouzo feels the same as she does and hugs him. Kai and Mei serve a quiche and Aoi finds her taste has returned. Ranmaru is forced to admit the appropriate mood for the ceremony is gone and he and Ginji join them. Umi-bouzo becomes so happy his dark miasma turns pink, but eventually he has to go back to the ocean. Aoi asks him to stay but he has to refuse, so instead Aoi gives him more food and Chibi gives him a Rainbow Clam pearl. Umi-bouzo leaves, hoping to see them at the next ceremony, though Aoi does not tell him that at the next ceremony in 100 years she will already be dead. As Umi-bouzo leaves Aoi finally remembers Ginji was her childhood Ayakashi. Odanna, knowing everything Raiju did to Aoi, threatens to eat him and destroy his soul if he ever hurts Aoi again. Aoi finally confronts Ginji, who admits he did visit when she was a child, but he was not the first to visit her. He refuses to confirm if Odanna was the first and instead thanks her for making the ceremony a success. Ginji and Ranmaru realise the truth, everyone believes Umi-bouzo causes disasters and must be made happy to prevent them. But the disasters actually come from a dark place that appears every 100 years and Umi-bouzo keeps the disasters away by gaining power from the ceremony. Ranmaru credits Aoi with the discovery and changes the ceremony to one that thanks Umi-bouzo for keeping everyone safe. With the ceremony over the Tenjin-ya and Orio-ya staff say their goodbyes while Ougan-douji secretly watches and smiles. Aoi promises Odanna that one day she will repay everything he has done for her as they finally return to Tenjin-ya. (Source: Wikipedia)
