Episode 4 recap

The Demon Prince of Momochi House episode 4 began with Aoi, Ise and Yukari dealing with some seals that are a result of letting Kasha in Momochi House.

Himari arrived home at that moment, commenting on how something felt uneasy. The lesser yokai agreed with her, also explaining that Kasha is a big deal in the yokai world as are Yukari and Ise, with Himari doubting Ise’s inclusion there. Himari then found them and asked about Kasha, pointing out his mark.

That revealed they were unable to see this mark all over the house. On cue, Kasha’s trap was sprung, releasing an ayakashi called Gozu in the house. Aoi was captured by Kasha, forcing Ise to transform but lose control of himself as a result.

That led into Ise’s backstory, revealing him to have been exiled and cursed by the Shojo clan. He eventually led a friend to the human world, resulting in his discovery of Momochi House, Yukari and Aoi.

However, the friend sacrificed himself for Ise, causing the present Ise to in turn sacrifice himself to protect Aoi and not lose another friend. Himari had Yukari use a shield on her, allowing her to create an opening for Aoi’s freedom.

That allowed Ise to regain control of and heal himself, beating Gozu and forcing Kasha’s retreat momentarily. The episode ended with Yukari and Ise being grateful to be by Aoi’s side and also thankful for Himari’s presence.


What to expect (speculative)?

Despite Kasha’s appearance in back-to-back episodes, The Demon Prince of Momochi House episode 5 could see the evil Ayakashi take a step back from his assault on Aoi and co.

That could allow the coming installment to focus on the series’ core group, likely seeing Yukari and Himari bond following the focus on Ise and Aoi in this episode.

Likewise, The Demon Prince of Momochi House episode 5 should at least tease Yukari’s backstory, if not fully reveal it to make up for the entirety of the episode’s runtime.

If his backstory is only teased, the rest of the episode will likely focus on Himari and lean into a more traditional slice-of-life approach.
