With the previous episode of Ayakashi Triangle, it can be surmised that the protagonist Matsuri will not be transforming back to his proper male form any time soon. Being a prudent and righteous Exorcist Ninja, he has not fallen for Shirogane’s deal and even gave up the thought of getting his old body back.

Even Suzu had a hard time adjusting to the new changes in the beginning, but now she too has made up her mind to contribute to Matsuri’s pursuit. As the latter has decided to take Shirogane, the legendary King of Ayakashi, as his pet, fans are excited to learn what comes next for the trio.

What to expect from Ayakashi Triangle episode 3?

Episode 3 of Ayakashi Triangle, titled The Speedster Exorcist Ninja, will see a new character, Soga Ninokura, reuniting with his old associate/rival, Matsuri Kazamaki. Since the latter was just a rookie, Soga has been overseeing his every move as an adherent teacher to ensure he doesn’t mess up in his job as an Exorcist Ninja and bring shame to his lineage.

After discovering Matsuri’s current situation, Soga will take matters into his own hands. In Kentaro Yabuki’s original manga series, Soga is described as a short-tempered devoted Exorcist Ninja from the Ninokuru family who takes his job seriously and doesn’t like to bargain deals with an Ayakashi. As Soga will eventually run into Shirogane, Matsuri must ensure that he keeps his promise to Suzu.

A brief recap of the previous episode

Suzu was utterly devastated by Matsuri’s transformation into a beautiful teenage girl. To get accustomed to the new changes, Suzu helped Matsuri by lending him clothes from her wardrobe. Seigen requested that his associates get Matsuri into Suzu’s school. Everyone at the school was fascinated by Matsuri, who exponentially became the talk of the town.

Later, near the school, Matsuri met Shirogane, who tried to threaten him by sending one of his lackey Ayakashis, Tadare, to snatch the scroll from him. Ignoring Shirogane’s orders, Tadare decided to devour the “Ayakashi Medium,” Suzu, to gain more powers. However, Matsuri made it there and defeated Tadare with the Kazamaki Wind Style: Whirling Wind Blade technique.

Matsuri asked Suzu to include him in her girlfriend group so that he could protect her from evil Ayakashis by staying nearby. Using Suzu’s disguise, Shirogane tricked Matsuri and stole the scroll from him while he was taking a shower.

After catching up to Shirogane, Matsuri decided to exorcize him for good, sacrificing the hope of undoing the gender swap spell. However, Suzu managed to talk him out of his resolve. To keep his promise, Matsuri proclaimed to make Shirogane his pet.
