I tried to watch the first ep of Mushishi b/c everyone kept mentioning it in connection w/Natsume & just... I dunno. It struck me w/a giant bat of meh.
The "Ever since I was young I've seen things other people don't see, they're probably what you would call spirits" doesn't stop, although certainly it gets pretty pared down--after a while it's only one or two panels, I think.
There is my FAAAAAAAVORITE female character who comes in later, though of course obviously I wish she would get more air time (she gets more than I fear, though, but... bar low, blah blah).
Hahaha, basically I love this series so I cannot be objective. The combo of the physical comedy (I love when Natsume whacks Nyanko-sensei or some random spirit) plus the yeaaaaaaaarning & people who are lonely & reeaaaaaaching for each other? I cannot resist. Plus awesome spirits. *_*
