Anime

It's not a shonen, despite the title. I'd argue it's for more mature audiences. The story is a tragedy about a man who is forced into immortality, and spends his days fighting demons to prepare himself to kill the demon who did this to him. It's definitely got some action, but it's not really about the spectacle of fighting demons. Most of the demons are caused by bad emotions like grief, anger, jealously, etc. The story focuses on how these ~~emotions~~ demons affect people and the world around them, and the main character learning more about himself and the world during his journey.

I'm not good at explaining this, just watch it lol.

I have some time this week so I cleaned up the auto subtitles from Youtube and ran it through DeepL for this episode.

Maomao's Diaires
“Hairpin”

Some day before Maomao was abducted

Jinshi-sama, Jinshi-sama.
What is it?
Lady Gyokuyou wants to see you.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Hmm.
Hmmmm.
What is it?　It's annoying.
I demand an explanation!
What exactly are you talking about?
It's the hairpin. Why don't you wear the hairpin?
(Oh, I totally forgot.)
You, I don't think so, but…… did you sell it?
No, I didn't.
(I was going to.)
Really?
It's true.
(I told you I didn't sell it!)
Be sure to wear it next time.
Ah, stop nagging.

Here is a trivia from Maomao.
In neighboring countries,
hairpins have been worn as magical objects since ancient times.
It was believed that the pointed stick had magical powers and
also served as a talisman and a charm against evil……

Now

Shisui has left.
The hairpin...
The person who gave it to me is a stickler.
I hope it comes back to me
grudgingly like its former master.

Next episode, “The Shi Clan”
Her stage opens.

猫猫のひとりごと
『簪』

猫猫がさらわれる前のある日のこと

壬氏様、壬氏様。
どうかしたか？
玉葉妃がお呼びです。
そうか、すぐ参る。
うん。
うーん。
何なんだ？　目障わりだな。
説明をしてもらおうか。
え、一体何のことでしょうか？
簪だ。どうして簪をつけてこない？
（ああ、すっかり忘れてた。）
お前、まさかとは思うが……売り払ってしまったんじゃ。
売っておりません。
（売るつもりだったけど）
本当か？
まことでございます。
（売ってないって言ってんだろ！）
今度は必ずつけてくるように。
あ、しつこい。

ここで猫猫の豆知識。
隣国では古来より、
簪を呪術具として身に付けていたらしい。
先の尖った細い棒に呪力が宿ると信じられ、
お守りや魔除けの役割も果たしていたとか…

現在

子翠は行ってしまった。
簪…
あれをくれた人が粘着質だから、
元の主に似て
恨みがましく戻ってきたらいいな。

次回、『子の一族』
彼女の舞台が幕を開ける。
