Daemons of the Shadow Realm Episode 4 Review
What happens after Yuru comes to Hana’s house?
Yuru again becomes very excited and amazed with everything that he sees in Hana’s home. First of all, he could not believe that Hana was using tatami mats just like that without any special occasion. Such a thing would be a luxury in his village. Here, he also meets Hana’s two guardian daemons, a cat and a dog, who are actually a tiger and a wolf. They were even paid respect by Right and Left.
What happened to Asa?
Later, we also see Asa practising her abilities and perfecting her skills to make it more precise. However, she misses her target and destroys a part of the garden at the mansion where she stays with others from her organisation. Here, we also meet the chairman, who seems to be the head of the organisation.
He looked pretty harmless. Not only that, but he also brought Jin along to see how Gabby was doing.
What did Jin plan?
Jin gets the very important task of finding Yuru, even though he has no idea what he looks like. In a very comical way, Asa draws him as a very cool and handsome boy, and Gabriel, the daemon of Gabby, brings forth its artistic skills to draw Yuru in a very traditional Japanese way. However, Jin decides to look for Tadera first.
He also gets a tip from Asa, who lets him know that her brother might try to find her with the help of their blood connection. And that is exactly what Yuru does.
What happens after Yuru tries to reach Asa?
This was a very stupid decision made by Yuru, who completely fell into the trap. Gin uses Asa’s blood to lure Yuru in and even captures him with his daemon. On the other hand, Dera and Hana become very worried about what might happen to Yuru. In a hilarious note, they were more worried about Yuru not having any health insurance and thinking about the hospital fees they would have to pay if something happened to him.
What happens after Yuru gets captured?
The fight that ensues here was very interesting as we see just how powerful Yuru is, even without the abilities that Asa has. Yuru has the mind of a hunter, and he easily saved his daemons and also captured Jin, who is one of the strongest characters in this anime yet. After that, Yuru also summons Asa so that he can have a proper conversation with her and understand why she did what she did.
What worked, what did not work?
This episode was definitely one of the best of this series, and it seemed like the pace was finally picking up. The action towards the end was pretty good, and the comedy elements scattered throughout were also nice to witness.
Nothing was too bad or negative in this episode.
