Bashin Episode 09

The ninth episode of the anime series Battle Spirits Shounen Toppa Bashin
J locks in the guests at a party in his Kyoto home to catch a Nazo-Otona.
==Summary==
J and Kyouka head to Kyoto, and J mentions that he has secret plans for the party being held there. When Kyouka and Okyou see that Bashin will be there, they wonder if he can help mend the relationship between J and his mother.
Meanwhile, Bashin. Striker and Meganeko are touring Kyoto. There, they see J on TV, and hear about his events at the party. Bashin and Striker hope to play Battle Spirits, and go out to find the party.
At the party, they're quick to create trouble. Aibou runs off looking for food, and Bashin tries to cover for him. He's eventually helped by a woman, who turns out to be J's mother, Miyako. Bashin introduces himself to her as J's greatest rival. Not being a fan of Battle Spirits, Miyako isn't happy to hear this.
Soon, J appears on stage, together with the curator of the Sawaragi Art Gallery, to have a special match. J easily defeats the red-using curator, with his white deck. His deck also now included an X-rare, The Impregnable Fortress Odin. When Bashin approaches J after the match, Kyouka and Okyou have hope for their plan. However, it's crushed when Bashin fails to notice the tension between J and his mother, and just compliments J on his popularity.
Soon, an alarm is set off. J announces that this is because a Nazo-Otona is in the building. To draw him out, a Battle Spirits tournament will be held. A maze is created in the building, and card battlers must move through the maze, battling everyone they see.
In the maze, Striker runs into Suiren. They battle, but Striker is defeated thanks to Suiren's X-rare. Finally, Bashin and Suiren reach the end of the maze. They battle each other to decide the tournament's winner. Ultimately, Suiren wins, due to Bashin being overly cautious. Unfortunately, My Sunshine was supposed to award the winner with a trophy.
In another part of the building, Aibou finds himself cornered by both Okyou and Pink.
