Assault! Defend Yokokawa Branch!!

Synopsis

The Shinkalion's mechanic, Hosokawa, comes running in with "I caught a yōkai!" According to him, what he caught is a "Bakedanuki" that takes human form, but the thing in front of Shin and the others looks like nothing more than an ordinary tanuki—and there's no proof at all that it's a yōkai. Even so, only Shin lights up with "I'm gonna be friends with the Bakedanuki!" Meanwhile, having been repulsed time and again by the Shinkalion, Wadatsumi plots to attack the Yokokawa branch with his own strength.
