Kyougoku Natsuhiko: Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari EP2 - Willow Woman

Momosuke goes to Kichibe's Willow Inn to know more of the rumored Yanagi Onna that haunts the place. It is believed she is in love with Kichibe the innkeeper, who will soon to marry his fifth bride, Yae. The rumor says that the Yanagi Onna murdered the innkeeper's previous wives and children out of jealousy. Momosuke encounters the Ongyo: Mataichi and Ogin at the inn. The wedding ceremony goes as planned, but afterwards the Ongyo use their talents to force Kichibe to confront the Yanagi Onna spirit. It is revealed that the spirit is in fact the split persona of Kichibe's, created in response to the burden of his family responsibilities and the prospect of being discarded once an heir is born. Kichibe is sliced in half by the willow tree's branches soon after as Mataichi commits Kichibe's soul to the next world. Yae gives birth shortly to a son. Momosuke looks in disgust at how Kichibe's relatives pressured him to give birth to an heir and concludes that they are the real reason for Kichibe's demise.
