Here, they had to struggle a bit to make things fit. Still, she's rather cute, and Watanuki DOES get embarassed talking to her - which suggests he finds her cute as well, albeit in a less 'toppling over' sorta way than he does with Himiwari. Still, it's one way of showing him that not ALL spirit encounters are bad...

After all, Watanuki was able to just buy the hairpins without getting freaked out. I guess he bought it, in the hope of meeting her again. I guess Yuuko noticed this, so she sent him inside the vase.

First, I don't think the pipe fox had turned back to the small form at all since the parasite episode, it was large, but behind the scenes since then. Second, the hairpins may have been for the Vestal Sprite in the first place, otherwise I'd think he would have used it as an opportunity to talk to Himawari the day he got them. Since he bought them after he got the deep-fried tofu and along with his explanation to the Vestal Sprite, I figured that he bought them for the Vestal Sprite. Unless Watanuki is a cover-his-ass sort of guy, which i doubt, since I don't think he could lie with a straight face, let alone lie to a cute girl. two things.

It was of course, still good, but I prefer when they approach situations that we're familiar with in a more or less "magical" way, that doesn't involve some weird clothed old man swinging around a wooden staff :x Nonetheless, the pipe fox was well done, as the persoanlity remained while the shape changed. Often you get to see things that become stronger recieving an ego boost *cough*dragonball*cough*. Though not completely unique, it's still a good aspect. The vestal sprite-Watanuki, I don't think so. Unless something changes about Watanuki's feelings that is. Though you may like them better together, and it would be a nice surprise if they did end up together, I don't feel like Watanuki picking her over Himiwari. On a side note, I bet I mispelled like hal of the japanese names here >_> Hmmm, this episode left me a bit bitter after the twins.

And I lol'd at the scene were the rain sprite tried to do a dignified entrance. ^^ I like Watanuki with the vestal spirit alot more because he’s not acting like a complete doofus contrary to when he spends time with Himawari.
