Mystery! Kuu once again wins the lottery for a pair of tickets to an Onsen, however (due to various reasons) only Kuu and Noburu end up going. There Kuu gets a chance of solving a mystery about why various unplanned events end up happening. In the end, it turns out the culprits are only a few among the people present.

After getting permission from Noboru and Tōru's father, Kūgen and Kō are allowed to stay in their house. Kūgen shifts into his male form and asks Noboru to bring him to the town's Shinto shrine, in accordance to the custom where a spirit has to ask permission from the local god before using his powers. They discover that the owner of the local convenience store is the local god, Ebisu, who serves as the patron of merchants. After accompanying Ebisu to the shrine, Ebisu orders his shrine's gatekeepers—a pair of imperial guardian lions named Kōga and Eiga to attack Kūgen's group. A battle then ensues which Kūgen wins after "summoning Shin" from the sky. Ebisu then explains that he was only trying to destroy his temple to attract more business. Ebisu also tells Kūgen in private that Miyako's spirit still haunts the land.

A god of poverty has arrived at Suzinoze, and Ebisu is freaking out about it. He gets all of the specters to search for the god. Meanwhile, Noboru is leading kids around from house to house, collecting candies because it is Halloween. He comes across the god of poverty without knowing it, and has him collect candy with him. In the end, Ebisu gives Noboru one hundred thousand dong as a reward, and the god of poverty gives all the luck he collected to Noboru for his kindness. Meanwhile, Kuu is attempting to roast potatoes, but fails because her luck is taken away.

Shiro and Dema fight; Kou takes out Dema with Sakasaen. Bekira wants to seal Shiro, so Kou and Bekira fight. Kuu and Tsukuyomi argue about Shiro's fate. Kuu does not believe sealing Shiro would make Tooru happy, while Tsukuyomi says Tooru would be chased by the Oni for the rest of his life if it did not happen. Tsukuyomi maintains that Shiro must either die or be sealed. Kuu phones Noboru saying that Shiro will die unless Bekira seals her. Tooru and Noboru agree, however Kuu omits to tell them that Shiro's only real danger was from Tsukuyomi and other like-minded Gods.

Tooru runs away with Shiro, trying to escape the Oni. Kuu is following with the Department of Custody agents. Tooru's friend helps him sneak past the Oni, and Tooru goes to ask Ogami for a place to stay. The Oni find him, but Mubyou shows up to beat them down as Tooru and Shiro run off. Meanwhile, Noboru and Kou are cooking. Kuu learns that one of the agents she is following around is Tsukuyomi, the one who sealed her. Kuu comes to a decision that the agents want to seal Shiro, due to her pale white skin, (white symbolizes the clouds, and is therefore a sign of rebellion against the gods because clouds cover the symbol of the gods, the sun), and that Shiro was in the Land of the Gods. So they leave Kuu behind, telling her not to interfere. Noboru and Kou go in search of Tooru now that they know he is missing, and Tooru and Shiro meet up with Sakura, and the Oni appear to take Shiro with the new familiar, Dema, which they have purchased.

Shiro runs away to go and find Toru. She meets him at his school and is followed by a group of Oni.

Kuu goes to get Noboru back. He learns that Shiro, the girl that was sent to Toru, belongs to a group of Oni. Kuu decides to give her back and Noboru returns home.

A cat person delivers a box addressed to Toru. When they open the box, everyone is shocked to see a girl wrapped in charms. They do not know who or what she is, nor why she will only answer to Toru. A company to whom the girl was supposed to be delivered thinks that Kuu stole her. The company kidnaps Noboru in order to force Kuu to give them the girl.

Kuu, Toru, and Kou join Noboru and Sakura at the school cultural festival. There they meet a fox who has a history with Kuu. Sakura and Noboru watch a band play in the auditorium. They are about to leave until a girl starts singing on stage.

Kuu is given a chance at a lottery and wins a pair of tickets to an Onsen, (a public bath), food included. The boys are reunited with their grandmother and uncle on this vacation. While everyone else decides to go to the town to shop for souvenirs, Toru chooses to stay by himself at the inn to play with a little girl. Unfortunately, the girl turns out to be a Zashiki-warashi who proceeds to drain Toru of his energy. Kou, realizing that nobody is protecting Toru, hurries back with the others only to find the inn in turmoil. Kuu captures the spirit, who then restores Toru. Toru and Noboru defend Kuu and Kou from their grandmother's rebukes regarding their guardianship.

Kou accidentally breaks a window and is determined to pay for it herself, (as well as the for dishes she has been breaking). She turns to Misaki for advice, and Misaki suggests that getting a part-time job would be the best thing in order to pay for repairs to the window. Kou's first job is at the tea shop, where Kuu tags along for fun. Kou is fired for breaking many of the dishes, and Kuu is fired for yelling at the customers and eating a lot of food during work. They get new jobs at Domo Burgers, where many girls line up just to order from Kuu in her male form. Kou gets fired for preparing food poorly, while Kuu is fired for flirting. They both get jobs at Ebisu's market delivering pizzas. Kou gets lost and cannot find the delivery address; Kuu delivers pizza by throwing them on customers' doorsteps without obtaining payment - and those are all promptly stolen by a cat-demon who is a fan of Kuu. Kou and Kuu are fired once again.

The Owl Mask is smashed and falls to the ground revealing this god to have the same face as Mubyou. She explains that she is the real Mubyou, and that the other Mubyou has the same face as she does. When Kuugen runs to the aid of Toru, the copy Mubyou threatens that Toru will be engulfed in flames from the Sakasaen. Kuu taunts her to try it; however, when the copy Mubyou sets the fire on Toru, the flames are reversed and set her alight instead. Kuu reveals that the reason this happened was because of the mirror enchantment she had placed on the green bracelet which she had given to Toru. Mubyou is revealed as a living doll modeled to resemble the true Mubyou. Mubyou gives the Mubyou-doll her cloak and tells Kuugen that she looks forward to when they will meet again in eight years. Kou is shown running after the spirit dragon which left her. The next day, Mubyou gives Kou the Reverse Circle and departs.

The Takagami brothers return to their mother's hometown only to find out that she was the last Priestess of the Water and that the elder sibling, Noboru, is now the head of the Mizuchi Family. Tōru, on the other hand, is currently being targeted by Yōkai for the power he possesses. In order to protect him, the Guardian spirit, Kūgen Tenko, is released from the seal that held her captive. Later that night, the enemy attacks and it requires both Kūgen and the sentinel Kō's combined abilities in order to vanquish the evil spirit. Afterwards, the brothers return home with both Kūgen and Kō, who will both serve as their guardians from spirits who mean to do them harm.
