3. Episode 9 Recap
Episode 9 takes us to the second round between Asakura Yoh and Tao Ren. Ren seeks revenge for his shameful defeat in their first fight, while on the other hand, this is a do-or-die match for Yoh. He will be out of the tournament if he loses.
However, I doubt if vengeance is the only thing that turned Ren into a monster. We get to see flash backs of scenes where infant Ren witnessed countless deaths before his eyes. We don’t exactly know the context behind it, but it surely has to do something with his family’s history.
Ren shows up with a flashy entry riding on his new horse. It may look like just another horse, but it can be possessed by Black Peech, the warhorse spirit that Bason used to ride in his peak days.
He initially abstains from using the horse’s power since he wants to defeat Yoh by himself. He starts by pumping more and more Furyoku to his extended oversoul and attacks Yoh with full force.
Yoh has learned from his mistakes, so he keeps calm and focuses on his strengths. Oversoul is a spiritual construction, if the spirit of the wielder falters, the oversoul will fail no matter how much furyoku is pumped into it.
That’s exactly what happens to Ren; he grows less and less confident seeing Yoh reading his moves perfectly. Thus, Ren’s invincible oversoul shattered along with his confidence.
With no other options left, Ren summons the Black Peach and attacks Yoh with everything he has. It’s certainly a disadvantage for Yoh, but sadly, there’s no rule that stops a shaman from using two oversouls.
Surprisingly, both Yoh and Ren run out of furyoku at the same time, and the match ends in a draw. The officiants qualify both of them to the next round of the tournament.
