I'm not really one to watch really long anime. and i only really started this series out of boredom.And it turned out really good. It is one of those plots that could really fall into a repetitive pit and it gets boring. but it didn't, well it did, but it wasn't boring to me at least. I watched the whole series being attentive and not turning to do something WHILE watching.
My favorite season is season 5 it was way more interesting than the other seasons for some reason. Of course my favorite episode would be from the same season which is episode 11. It really put into perspective how Natsume is loved also by his youkai friends and not just Natsume being way to understanding on his own. And of course because my Chuukyuu-tachi being my favorite characters in the series.
There are a lot of things they haven't talked about yet. like, the reason Reiko made Yuujinchou, of course there's a connection to her being not so accepted by humans. But is that really the only reason?
Also, who is Reiko's husband? Takashi's grandfather? They've never talked about how Reiko established a family despite how people were weirded out about her and she never really had friends during back flashes. But obviously she did since She has a grandson. However that is something I think they cant really not tell us. And they've only recently revealed that there is something more to Takashi's grandfather. I assume he also has spiritual power and has had his own journey. So I hope they talk about that too.
Another thing that's so weird to me is Natsume hasn't really had much character development in the powers and abilities department. All he can do at the moment is punch and remove contracts. He's sensing for which is youkai and which is not hasn't really improved. Natori Shuuichi is still doing all of exorcism. The way he still cant hold his own without Madara saving him and getting scared out of his wit the same way he did at the first season.
The only character development he had was communication and having friends, but that's it? I think? It's good, don't get me wrong, but in 6 seasons that's all that happens? If you think otherwise feel free to say whatever.
FINALLY, they haven't officially said anything on who Natsume will end up with, they proooobably wont. But I definitely ship Kaname x Takashi. And I feel like that's also the Fujoshi and Fudanshi fandom is heading towards that direction. Normal fans will probably head towards Takashi x Takki. Some are also shipping Natori x Takashi, but I don't really see them other than having a sibling-like relationship. But if they dont plan on doing Kaname x Takashi then Ill be fine with Natori x Natsume, senpai kouhai/ age gap will forever be hawt.
