Ep. 2: Hakumei und Mikochi singen mit Konju, treffen Sen und erfahren vom zurücktretenden Kaffeemahl

2

Hakumei and Mikochi are in town and Mikochi gets voted first place in a singing contest, tied with songstress Konju, even though Mikochi didn't participate, because she and her singing are so popular. At first Konju is disgruntled, but the next day Mikochi helps her with a household remedy for her sore throat. On the day of the harvest festival they sing together and mesh so well tsukumogami start to dance in the streets. Hakumei and Mikochi are fishing at night and get startled by a ghost fish, that turns out to be one of the animal carcasses animated by scientist Sen, who explains her research to them. Hakumei tries to repair the Kobone Master's old coffee grinder, while the Master tells Hakumei and Mikochi its - and her own - history, but Hakumei fails. As it turns out, the grinder is a tsukumogami and had decided it's time to retire. (Source: Wikipedia)
