        A young girl named Junko enters a jewelry shop and wishes to have a large diamond appraised. The clerk laughs and says there's no way she found a diamond that large, but decides to humor her and have it appraised anyway. The appraiser (played by Salaryman Yamada) confirms to the clerk that it is a real diamond, but they decide to tell Junko otherwise and keep the diamond for themselves, not even telling their boss about it.Kitarō later arrives at Junko's home, having received a request from her in the Yōkai Post. Junko and her mother tell him about how her father was studying diamonds from Jigoku Mountain when he suddenly disappeared in the middle of the night, leaving behind only the large diamond Junko found. Kitarō asks to see the diamond only to learn Junko left it at the jewelry store. That night, the two men from the jewelry store are awoken by the sound of evil laughter coming from the box they put the diamond in. When they inspect the diamond, they see inside it the face of Wanyūdō.The next day, Nezumi-Otoko is feeding fish by Jigoku Mountain when he sees the two men. He pesters them and asks where they are going, and although they ignore him and shove him aside at first, they eventually tell him about they diamond supply they're looking for. Nezumi-Otoko runs to the GeGeGe House and asks Kitarō to come help him gather diamonds, but Kitarō is uninterested until he mentions they are at Jigoku Mountain. Medama-Oyaji believes they might have discovered an entrance to Jigoku, so they accompany Nezumi-Otoko to the mountain.Inside the cave they find a giant man-shaped diamond. Nezumi-Otoko tries to grab it but Kitarō warns that his Yōkai Antennae is detecting yōkai energy from the area. Not one to be deterred, Nezumi-Otoko lays the diamond down and places a boulder on top of it, to save it for later. Further in they discover a Shinto temple like building, with diamonds scattered all over the ground. As Nezumi-Otoko tries to gather as many as he can, the two men walk out and claim all the diamonds as theirs. When the appraiser threatens Nezumi-Otoko with a switchblade, Kitarō fights him off with his chanchanko and warns the clerk about stealing the diamonds. Before Kitarō can convince him, however, Nezumi-Otoko strikes him on the back of the head with a diamond. He then suggests to the two men that they works together to collect all the diamonds and split them 50/50 once they get outside.As they gather the diamonds and Medama-Oyaji tries to wake Kitarō, Wanyūdō makes his appearance and terrorizes everyone for trying to steal his diamonds. He fires a light ray from his mouth which turns the two men into diamonds, leading Medama-Oyaji to deduce that all the diamonds in the area are other humans and that Wanyūdō eats the diamonds. Wanyūdō chases down and eventually turns Nezumi-Otoko into diamond as well. Medama-Oyaji finally wakes Kitarō and informs him of the situation just as Wanyūdō fires his ray at them. Kitarō dodges but Medama-Oyaji is turned into diamonds. Kitarō's usual weapons aren't working on Wanyūdō, but he soon grabs a shard of a mirror and reflects the diamond ray back at him, turning Wanyūdō into diamond instead.With everyone back to normal, Nezumi-Otoko and the two men prepare to resume gathering diamonds, but Kitarō scolds them and points out the diamonds aren't real. Sure enough, the diamonds soon begin changing back to human bones and skulls. They then hear a cry for help and find that the man-shaped diamond Nezumi-Otoko placed under a boulder earlier was actually Junko's father. The father and daughter are reunited and the jewelry store employees have learned their lesson. Nezumi-Otoko, however, has not learned a thing and chases after Junko asking for a reward for inadvertently finding her father.

      • EP22 - Youkai Beast (Part 2)

        Kōryū rampages through Tokyo before burrowing a giant hole in Mt. Fuji, giving the tanuki a path directly to Tokyo. The Gyōbu-Danuki demands the Japanese government to hand over the country, and in the face of their overwhelming power, he has no choice but to comply. Kitarō seeks help from Ittan-Momen and the two of them head off to the city to fight Kōryū, but are overwhelmed and defeated. They are captured and Kitarō is forced to surrender under the threat of Medama-Oyaji being beheaded, while Nezumi-Otoko, on the other hand, had switched to the tanuki side. Ittan-Momen, believed dead, is used by the tanuki Dansaburō as a loincloth.Kitarō and Medama-Oyaji are fed to Ōnamazu, but one of Kitarō's geta falls off before he is swallowed. The geta jumps to the monster's nostril and tickles it until it spits them out and they attempt to make their escape. Ōnamazu catches him with it's whisker and throws him into the water, but Kitarō finally stuns the beast with a surge of his electric powers. As they recuperate, Medama-Oyaji tells Kitarō the only way to seal Ōnamazu is to find the magic capstone the tanuki removed from over it's home.As construction on Tanuki Castle is nearly completed, Dansaburō takes a nap and is strangled to death by Ittan-Momen, who had only been playing dead. Nezumi-Otoko and two tanuki find him and deduce that it as Ittan-Momen's doing. As the tanuki go to hunt him down, Ittan-Momen captures Nezumi-Otoko and forces him to help him get close to the Gyōbu-Danuki. Meanwhile, Kitarō finds the capstone and is compelled to touch it and turns to stone upon doing so. Medama-Oyaji realizes this is probably a curse place on it by the Gyōbu-Danuki. The curse doesn't last long, though, as around the same time Ittan-Momen is able to get close to Gyōbu-Danuki and strangle him. Once he is knocked unconscious, Kitarō returns to normal and makes a run for it. Nezumi-Otoko is chased down and beaten by the tanuki while Ittan-Momen is captured an cut up into pieces. Nezumi-Otoko is then tied up and sentenced to be burned at the stake for betraying the tanuki.Kōryū melting from Kitarō's stomach acids / Nezumi-Otoko's cross falls over, causing the a tanuki to fall back and knock over a pail of water. The water is soaked up by the pieces of Ittan-Momen, which then expand and reconnect, bringing him back to life. Before the tanuki can set fire to Nezumi-Otoko, Ittan-Momen saves him and they make their escape. Kitaro comes to the giant hole Kōryū dug and runs into the secretary just as the beast is released once again. Kōryū steps on Kitarō, so the secretary decides to seek help from the Hokkaido branch of the army. Just as Ittan-Momen and Nezumi-Otoko arrive, Kōryū begins to melt. As it turns out, Kitarō was crushed so hard his stomach burst, causing his powerful stomach acid to melt himself and Kōryū down to a puddle. Medama-Oyaji weeps because, since Kitarō and Kōryū have melted together, it will be harder than normal for Kitarō to revive himself. Ittan-Momen then suggests Resurrection Powder, which should be able to separate Kitarō's essence from Kōryū's.The tanuki are preparing to grind the men of Japan into sausage when Gyōbu-Danuki receives the news that Kōryū has been defeated. He summons Ōnamazu out of the depths to rampage through Tokyo. The Hokkaido army arrives to fight back, but they are completely wiped out by Ōnamazu. Meanwhile, Kitarō's puddle has successfully separated from Kōryū's puddle and he is ready to fight. Nezumi-Otoko informs him of the situation and how not even the American army stood a chance, but Kitarō refuses to quit and asks Ittan-Momen if he can carry his puddle, which eventually begins to reshape into his original body. They soon find Ōnamazu in the middle of the ocean and are almost immediately eaten. However, Kitarō is able to control Ōnamazu from the inside and makes it swim away from Japan to the arctic circle, where it freezes solid.Meanwhile, Medama-Oyaji heads back to Shikoku with Nezumi-Otoko to once again repair the seal on their cave. Nezumi-Otoko is chased by the tanuki as Medama-Oyaji replaces the seal...

The secretary tells his aide to set up a meeting to deal with the possible threat.Later, a second moon appears over Tokyo, sending the people into a panic. Kitarō arrives and points out to the crowd that the moon is fake. He explains that it is the work of yōkai, but is laughed off by everyone. The secretary and his aide then follow him in their car and requests his presence at a meeting the next day to discuss the situation. But as Kitarō heads home, the second moon follows him closely, and he runs for his life.

The Gyōbu-Danuki tells his minions to take them to see their other giant beast, the Ōnamazu. There they see the secretary has been captured as well, but he tells them he had already given the order to launch an attack on the second moon, unaware it contained Kōryū. Sure enough, back in Tokyo, the army launches a missile at the egg, dropping it into the Tokyo Bay.In retaliation, Gyōbu-Danuki demands the secretary speak to the government about handing over Japan. He refuses, but Kitarō convinces him to go along with what they say for now.
