And another season of Natsume Yuujinchou is over again.
Theres not much to say except maybe that it was slightly better than the third since it was a bit more about Reiko and Natsume past again. But still not as much as I wanted.

I was happy that they shed more light on his family, but as you said I wish we could have learned more. I want to know what kind of man Reiko eventually ended up marrying, lol. It's interesting that she did not give up her family name, and I'm guessing that her son inherited her name rather than her husbands (if she even did get married).

What I find inspiring about this show is how kindhearted Natsume is, regardless of the fact that he's been treated like crap in the past. He definitely did not have an easy life, and that's why it's amazing how loving and compassionate he is towards everyone (youkai and human alike) in spite of all the hurt that he's experienced.

I'm also loving Nyanko-sensei's "tsundere" nature. By the end of the fourth season when he claims that he's only sticking around Natsume to get the book of friends...... yeah right, he's not fooling anyone

The other unanswered and brushed over neglected storyline is the resolution of Natsume coming clean with his foster parents. Have they just suspected all along? Is there a secret that was revealed to them and they just take his eccentric behavior for granted? Ah well...may never get those answers but one never knows.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and presume that they will stay happily oblivious to all of the shenanigans going on in their house at night til the series ends, lol.

In the end I give it 8/10 because I felt it's not as strong as the first two seasons, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm tempted to give it a higher score though because the episode where Nyanko-sensei was impersonating Natsume was too funny for words.... I could watch that episode several times over

I hope the "The End" at the end doesnt mean its the end of this franchise because that would be a huge disappointment. But it could be since the last ep had a real "The End"-feeling.

8/10 from me.

I am of the same opinion as you, Ossi-san as far as "THE END" goes. There was lots that was left unanswered that imo, would have made for a darker series and yet, still lighthearted in the end. What of the famed Matoba clan? Why was Natsume let go by the heir of said clan? Was he a softie after all and if so, what was the point of killing all of those youkai? Was was the point of pursuing Natsume and Nyanko-sensei as if he meant to do them harm or was it just mere curiosity? Strange...That part of the story was just swept under the rug...that is a disappointment on my end.

You need to get a Taki-chan avy and sig 

The one thing I envied Natsume for was his being able to attend all of those great Youkai parties...damn, if they were not the best to be had anywhere...the music playing, my precious Nyanko-sensei dancing and drinking until the wee hours of the Youkai morn...free flowing Sake was to be had anywhere, anytime. Time stood still...deep, ever so deep, in those Youkai filled hills of emerald green grass and jewel colored, swaying flowers...ah! A life one can only dream about...

We will most likely have to wait a while before we see a fifth season, 12 volumes have been released and with this they have covered up to the 11'th I believe. :)

Aww, it's over. A shame, really, I think they should keep making this show. "Excellent" as usual.

Man...oh man...what an ending to the latest episode and we only have one left for this current season. How can Nyanko sensei not tell that Natsume-kun has been possessed by that creepy youkai that lives in a home he once was living in? I was taken aback when it came out of nowhere too as Natsume almost makes it to his childhood home and then...bamn! Gonna be on the edge of my seat til next week's final episode. I read we will be made privy to another season too...here's hoping those aren't just rumors since he still has to tell his "foster" parents just who he is and what he sees...

Hottie, Natori's theme song is always fun (as is his bishie sparkle)....he appears just in time to save N-kun and T-kun from certain Youkai disaster...and there is my kawaii Nyanko-sensei. too busy stealing...er...I mean, helping himself to grilled squid and Sake...a cunning fat calico cat if ever there was one...and all while trying to sneak into the Youkai banquet. No wonder he excused himself to feast.
