天下制覇

Yeah, yeah. I know it's based off a different Japanese urban legend.

Impressions:

I couldn't help but laugh, but this was one of the better episodes for leaning more effectively into the horror aspects. Granted, the very PG nature of most episodes clases a bit with the… uh… face ripping, dismemberment, and general body horror of the cursed doll. Plus it had little bits of Nube's backstory, which has been a recurring theme this season, but with a much lighter touch instead of full on ginormous flashbacks with fridged girl for backstory. 

I still laughed. Especially the feral screaming doll that then got huffy about being dropped… for screaming bloody murder. So the ghost gave murderous chase… in order to reiterate that she has most of a week left in her curse. Also, the whole conceit of a psychic ghost. Can't we just say poltergeist? No? It's an angry ghost specifically of a psychic? But also the ending where he goes "We're not so different, you and I." I, uh, think you are. Who among us would not be a murderous lunatic ghost? Plus the screaming crying. And why the big dramatic music and extra animation for the demon arm this time? He uses it for literally everything. It was all so absurdly over the top, yet completely nonsensical.
