The third season of Natsume Yuujinchou continues to capture the essence of emotions as it did with the first two seasons. If you have read my reviews for the first two seasons you probably would know by now that the synopsis for Natsume Yuujinchou is generally the same. In order for me to hit the minimum character limit I will still need to write the synopsis so you can go ahead and skip the next paragraph. Natsume Yuujinchou follows the story of a teenage boy who has the ability to see and communicate with spirits freely without the help of spiritual tools. The emphasis on spiritual tools because Natsume Takashi has a friend Tanuma who could also see spirits but its very diluted and another friend Taki Tooru who needs to use a tool to see and speak to a spirit should they agree to step onto it. While Natsume lives out his daily life as a normal teenager he also generally help the youkai he encountered with their problems returning the names his late grandmother Natsume Reiko took from them and also tying up loose ends she left behind. 640https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:500/1o4q9dPxv0vy37ArFxuNW9g.jpeg Picture Source: Medium thru Google Image Search Just like the other two seasons season three does have its focus point: reminiscing the past. It is in this season that we get a glimpse of Natsumes past right before he started living with the Fujiwaras. There will also be an episode where we learn more about sorcery which is different from exorcism. And speaking of exorcism this will also be the season where Natsume interacts more with the Matoba clan despite Natoris efforts to try and keep him away from them. 640https://i2.wp.com/metanorn.net/wpcontent/uploads/2012/01/Natsume40200001.jpg?resize=6502C365 Picture Source: METANORN thru Google Image Search While it does look like there are tons of things happening in season three based on what I wrote earlier this season is technically the start of Natsume getting more entangled with the exorcists whether he likes it or not. Moreover there will hardly be any episodes where it shows Natsume returning a youkais name to the point where you will miss watching him do it. 640https://giffiles.alphacoders.com/138/138740.gif GIF Source: Gif Abyss Alpha Coders thru Google Image Search Also Natsumes relationship with his closest friend would begin to have a shaky start due to one of them wanting to help but the other felt that it is too dangerous since his spiritual powers is too diluted. Yep you will get to see some rocky relationships between Natsume and Tanuma in this season. But good news is that it doesnt affect their friendship much. 640https://i.yt.com/vi/qO4YGjrSmV8/hq720.jpg?sqp=oaymwE7CK4FEIIDSFryq4qpAy0IARUAAAAAGAElAADIQj0AgKJD8AEBAHDoACuAiKAgwIABABGDsgZSgkMA8=rs=AOn4CLAoXPrHW0WrCvgdCeCpzHVtnRccw Picture Source: ame1 on YouTube thru Google Image Search
