Possessions

**Possessions** is the third episode of the Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles tv series.

## Summary

The inside of the Cultural Museum was full of Tsukumogami and Usagi playfully tries to defeat the Yokai that are there. Kitsune then comments on the dilapidated state of the museum, which Gen comments that it used to be great and that it's shameful the government didn't take better care of it. Usagi then goes on an explanation about the Tsukumogami and continues to fight against the Tsukumogami there and when he slays the one possessing a Shoji Screen, its spiritual energy exits it. All of the Tsukumogami in the room is shown to be angry at Usagi's group and they flee the scene in terror.

Alone in a room, Kitsune loots the jewels there until a purse and then a necklace Tsukumogami attacks her. After she defeats them, Lord Kogane appears and attacks her with a sword, but once he frees his sword that was stuck in a dresser, his face was missing. Kitsune screams in fear attracting the attention of Usagi who arrives at the scene. She explains the situation to him, but it turns out that he was in fact the Faceless Yokai impersonating Usagi and the real one then arrives and fights against it. Recognizing the Yokai as Dare Mo, the Faceless One, Usagi fights and slays it, only to defend himself against Kogane's leftover hat. Alone with Kitsune, Usagi notes how strange it is that Kitsune has such expensive jewelry for a poor street performer. On the other hand, Kitsune brushes the comment off and claims that they should split up, while she finds Chizu and he finds Gen.

Chased by a lantern Tsukumogami, Chizu hides in a room where she's attacked by Samisen, Koto, and drum Tsukumogami. Without her Naginata, Chizu is left to defend against the musical Tsukumogami with her claws, mini-crossbow, and shuriken. Just then, Kitsune appears at the scene and notes how peculiar it is that a temple worker is such a great fighter. Chizu plays coy with Kitsune until the Dare Mo appears as Tetsujin appears and is quickly beaten by Chizu's shuriken.

Gen was facing off against a cupboard that was flinging exquisite plates at him that he tried his hardest not to allow to get broken. Flung outside where he comes face to face with someone that looks like himself, which turns out to be his sister Toshiko. Why she was there was because she "borrowed" some money from the Bat Squadron a bad group to borrow money from. In light of this, Gen agrees to help his sister, but first wants to deal with the Yokai inside the museum.

Back inside the museum, Usagi chases after an umbrella Tsukumogami into a room, he finds himself where the Lord Kogane Exhibit is. There, a mechanical Lord Kogane went on a speel about Kogane until it's revealed it's really Dare Mo. The Dare Mo then creates five copies of itself. With everyone facing off against a Dare Mo, Kitsune and Chizu are inclined to surrender to Kogane, but Gen and Toshiko want to defeat the Yokai there. A disparaging comment from Kitsune makes Gen reveal that the museum was formally Toshiko and his' home until they were kicked out. Continuing on with their fight against the Dare Mo, the one Usagi fights transforms into his Aunt. It claims that its power isn't just transformation, but peering into the hearts of people and says that Usagi entering Neo Edo has caused much chaos and trouble. Usagi's weapon was then knocked from his hands and then when the Dare Mo tries to kill Usagi, Gen takes Usagi's sword and tries to return it to him, but in the process has his horn sliced off. Furious that Gen's horn was cut off, Usagi uses his yo-yo against the Dare Mo which successfully immobilizes it. Pleading with the group to not exorcise it, as it was only defending itself against them and other evil Yokai that may bring harm to it. Realizing the errors of his ways, Usagi releases the Yokai and apologizes to it. The Dare Mo accepts the apology and claims that it will leave, but the Tsukumogami shall stay.

Once the Dare Mo leaves, Lord Kogane appears outside of the Museum accompanied by the guards to inform them that the place was bought by Toshiko and that it's no longer under his jurisdiction. He does, however, remind them that they'll have to fight Yokai whenever he tells them to and leaves the scene. Now that their ancestral home is back in their possession, Usagi offers himself and the group to help clean and rebuild the place. However, Gen needs to go to the hospital because of a cut pinky so Usagi takes him to the hospital and Toshiko and Kitsune stay behind to work on Toshiko's home; Chizu leaves to meet with Lady Fuwa who demands to know about the Ki-stone disturbance. Chizu then explains how Usagi came to the temple and released the Yokai that was inside the stone. Astonished by this, Lady Fuwa orders Chizu to maintain her position at the Temple, as she's her eyes and ears there. She follows with that the Neko Ninja Clan will once again one day rule Neo Edo.
