In 'The Moray Boat' an author, unable to cope any longer with a high pressure gives it up. He meets Mayumi, a Shinma who appears as an attractive young woman. Mayumi wishes only to serve the man, but the fate of humans who love Shinma is inexorable, and bitter. Miyu becomes the agent of a tragic destiny.

I found 'The City of Illusions' a bit confusing. Buildings and other structures in the city begin to distort and dissolve into sand. Somehow, this is related to a giant statue of the Buddha that wanders about causing disasters. While Reiha deals with the statue, Miyu takes on an eerie spider Shinma that has its own intentions for the town.

'Love of Dolls' introduces us to Kusumi Kimihara a skilled doll maker who is happier with her creations than she is in her dealings with humanity. When her agent sends he a young girl named Yuki Fujimora, the two find themselves competing for the love of a doll. Miyu plays only a small part in this story of a love triangle where the viewer gets to try to guess who the Shinma is.

In ' Butterfly Enchantment,' Miyu senses something strange about Ruri Sone, a new student at the school. She befriends Ruri and learns that her father has become infatuated with a butterfly fairy named Moru. However, there is no such thing as a butterfly fairy, although Shinma really do exist.

The final episode, 'Flag of Shinma,' is another break from the general run of the episodes. Miyu wonders into a village and discovers that it is being terrorized by three Shinma brothers, who are seeking the Chief's daughter, Sato, for a bride. Joining up with Reiha, in the fight, Miyu's efforts have unexpectedly grim results, despite her efforts to the contrary.

The DVD provides both English and Japanese, with English subtitles. This is the first DVD where the dubbing missed a some of the narrative. So I recommend following the subtitles.
