Ep. 39: Shuichi's Drain Turtle Returns as a Monster Demanding Sacrifice

39

A turtle belonging to Shuichi, which previously disappeared down a drain, reemerges in the form of a monstrous creature. Tamamo observes this new entity and determines that it can only be appeased if Shuichi is offered as a sacrifice. The situation presents a direct threat to Shuichi, as the monster's satisfaction is contingent upon his demise. This development forces the characters to confront the immediate danger posed by the transformed pet and the specific conditions required to neutralize the threat without harm to Shuichi.
