==Komasan in the City: Here’s Komajiro==
[[Komasan ]] is writing home to his mother about his disappointing experiences in Springdale. He narrates to her that he now just wants to come home. Komasan’s depression is interrupted by the arrival of his brother, Komajiro, who was inspired to follow Komasan into the city. [[Komajiro ]] even assumes that his big brother is an expert at urban living because he missed the narration from earlier. The elder Koma puts on a brave face and promises to guide his brother despite his uncertainty with everything in the city. Including escalators. The brother find themselves in front of an escalator and Komasan begins to explain that “these moving stairs” can give a yo-kai motion sickness, but then Komajiro points out a sign that names and gives a very basic warning about what not to do on an escalator. Komasan is still pretending to be an expert despite only just learning the name of the machine, and he begins to instruct Komajiro on how to board the steps. He takes a very long time because he’s afraid to misstep and get his rhythm wrong. He takes so long that his little sibling strides past him without notice and calls him up from halfway up the escalator. Komajiro took to city life so quickly, Komasan isn’t sure if his little brother is the same as he always was.
==Yo-Kai Cadin==
[[Eddie]], [[Bear ]] and [[Nate ]] are going on a treasure-hunting adventure. Eddie downloaded a dowsing app onto his phone that claims to be “more effective than real divining rods,” and whenever it beeps, Bear and Nate attempt to dig something up. Three holes get dug and the boys never unearth and valuables, but [[Whisper ]] suggests Nate scan the third hole for yo-kai because he has a feeling.
Whisper was right, and Nate reveals a sleeping, bug-shaped spirit. Whisper then abandons being right and decides this yo-kai is actually just a regular cicada. Nate challenges him a little, but the butler explains that kids from the city have probably just never seen a real cicada before. Nate points out the creature is way too big to be a regular bug, the creature is brightly,weirdly colored, the creature also has human-like facial features and is wearing clothes, but every time Nate makes a point about how this new creature just isn’t a cicada, Whisper becomes increasingly frustrated. He gets so mad as to shout at Nate to stop questioning him, which wakes the bug up. The bug bolts straight awake and swings its sword around, demanding that Nate and Whisper keep it down. But the yo-kai calms down, and he introduces himself as [[Cadin]]. Ordinary cicadas can’t do those things, but Whisper insists that’s what Cadin is.
Whisper, Nate and Cadin climb out the the hole, and Nate is trying to get Whisper to understand it’s ok to acknowledge his own mistakes, but Whisper doubles down on his assertion that the bipedal, speaking, sword-wielding Cadin is “a cicada yo-kai, which means he is still a cicada, and, therefore, [he is] never wrong.” Cadin isn’t interested in Whisper’s aggressive ignorance though.
==Robanyan Activate!==
At Nate’s watching a robot movie with Whisper and [[Jibanyan]]. Nate has to explain to Jibanyan what robots are, but Whisper also slips in the bonus fact that yo-kai can be mechanized as well, showing off a speculative “Robowhisper” design. Jibanyan sees it and decides he would never want to become a robot because no one would want to be his friend if he were a machine. While this is happening, the teleportation thing from “Terminator” happens and a pair of glowing yellow eyes peer through the dust and smoke through Nate’s house and even walls with infrared vision, acquiring their target.
Later, Jibanyan is awoken from a literal cat nap on the couch by metallic clanking, and he sees a robotic version of himself looking back with the yellow eyes from before and a reversed color scheme, where his main body is blue but the flames on his tail are red. Regular Jibanyan drags Nate and Whisper out of bed because “there’s a monster in the house.” Nate scans the room with the yo-kai watch, but no one appears. But the naked eye can easily spot places in the wood floor that have been punched in as footprints. They follow the tracks into the street and right up to the robot. Whisper tries to explain this character, but admits he was lying about yo-kai robots and can’t find this cat on the wiki. The robot is willing to explain himself though, after cycling through a few different voices and languages, finally settling on a deep, clear voice. Nate asks about the different voices while Jibanyan brings up his most pressing concern: this robot looks exactly like him. Once he points it out, his friends see it only then, which floors both cats. To clear everything up, the machine explains he’s [[Robonyan]], comes from the future and that he is Jibanyan, even though the latter just said he would never become a robot. He goes on to tell of a future where Jibanyan outlives his human friends and went through the mysterious disappearance of a yo-kai friend, holding his silent gaze on Whisper for a slightly long time, and chooses to evolve beyond his limits through technology.
Jibanyan can’t believe that he would mechanize himself, but Robonyan offers proof in the form of the factory in his belly that cranks out 85 percent dark chocolate chocobars. He accepts that Robonyan is a version of himself, but refuses to believe that the Jibanyan he is could become a robot. He clangs on his counterpart’s head and says he isn’t catlike enough because he’s too noisy to be catlike. Robonyan decides that contests between him and his past self will convince present-day Jibanyan to see the logic of the transformation. The first trial is a race, which Robonyan wins by being a racecar.Then he brings a truck to a dead stop in the street with just a finger. Jibanyan decides it’s time to straight-up fight robohim, and rushes Robonyan. The mech cat fires a rocket punch that Jibanyan dodges completely. Robonyan brings the mood down when he charges past his opponent to collect his fist off the ground to avoid littering.Jibanyan tries to get some hits in on Robonyan, but only damages his own hands like he’s a parked truck.
It’s still the middle of the night, so the four walk home and go back to sleep. Robonyan even takes care of himself, shrinking to the size of an action figure for convenience, and he can just plug himself right back into the normal outlets in Nate’s house.The next morning, [[Nate’s mom ]] wants to know how he used more than 5000 watt-hours of electricity at midnight, more than there’s even room for on the chart she has on her phone. Nate and Whisper figure out right away Robonyan sucked up all the juice, but they turn around and he’s sinking into a time portal in the floor and saying, “I’ll be back,” as he flicks his medal over to Nate and disappears. In the end, Nate and Whisper raise Jibanyan’s spirits by deciding he is actually better than Robonyan because he doesn’t cost any extra on the electric bill. And the episode closes out on a shot of Jibanyan’s glowing yellow but non-robotic eyes.
