OK THE NOSIRS EPISODE WAS REALLY CUTE

They were so well animated?? Why did they put so much of the budget into making tiny fancy men do fancy poses aka THE BEST AND GREATEST THING? DID I SOMEHOW POSSESS THE ANIMATORS

I dont even really have much to say except OMG theyre so cute and goofy and i want to cherish them. What a great character design and what great goofyness of flounce! And oh man ive got their stupid catchphrases stuck in my head nowwwww

And FOR ONCE nate was nice and won the episode by being nice, hooray! Im sad for them that their powers mean theyve never been complimented even once before, and thats why they started doing such over the top showmanship to try and be noticed. And it was a nice message that anxiety is just like the positive trait of ‘being careful’ exaggerated to the point it starts hurting you, so its best to keep a happy medium. It was nice that the nosirs got defeated by accidentally making nate stop before doing something that actually WAS gonna go wrong, and then it was so adorable how they got all teary eyed happy at being thanked!

Tho the ending was really weird yo, why did nate only get one of them when in the game you get all three and they just count as one space on your party. Also why did he possess the yokai watch instead of just giving his medal?

WAIT WTF THIS WAS JUST AN ORIGIN STORY FOR THE NOISE THE TOYS MAKE WHEN YOU PUT THE MEDAL IN THE WRONG WAY

Ok now im gonna be filled with existential horror for the poor nosir trapped in an eternity of the most mundane job ever. Is there one in every yokai watch??? Do they all have two brothers they never get to see again??

It was a funny meta joke tho, so overall i give this episode an A for actual funny and no weird bullshit.

Also nate and whisper copying the nosirs and doing their hammy dance with RIDICULOUS OVER THE TOP FACES was the best! So thats where that damn reaction image comes from!!
