Genre: Romance

Tomoe gets some insight into Nanami's childhood. And they finally get through the torii gates to see the Year God.

Kirihito, aka Akura-oh, has not given up on getting his body back from the Netherworld. But in the meantime, Nanami and her familiars go to see the Year God, to receive a talisman for the new year.

The search for the Sojobo's soul leads to an unexpected place and an unexpected confession.

The ruse is simple. Nanami confers her godly powers to Kurama, so he can pretend to be a god, someone Jiro cannot turn away from the gates. While Kurama and Tomoe distract Jiro, Nanami sneaks in to deliver the cure.
