Reviews

[Icyfarrell · Rating 4 out of 5]

这个短篇集还挺好玩的，既有妖怪又有案情，而且比正传里京极堂滔滔不绝地宣讲好多了，关于妖怪等等的来源长短恰到好处，还有很好笑的情节

[Mizuki · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's a light-heartened mixture between demon folklore and adventure themed novel, the short stories are entertainting and the mysteries always have a good explanation in the end. Hehe.

两人误打误撞解决了不少事件，可谓是有神灵保佑呀
痴人，京极堂的周围聚集了一群痴人，包括他自己。所谓物以类聚
