Ran, Midori, Rin, and Rui investigate a haunted inn.

This episode felt like the first half of Scooby Doo mystery:

• Old inn rumored to be haunted? check.
• Ghosts scaring away the customers? check.
• Businessman offering to buy the inn from the current owners? check.
• Logical explanation found for what appeared to be a supernatural event? check.

Hmm, what are the odds the businessman is trying to scare away the customers so that he can buy the inn?

Overall, a pretty slow paced episode. Right as the plot started moving into high gear, it ended, to be continued next week.

High points:

• Ran and Midori fighting over lunch
• Ran’s mother after pulling an all-nighter
• Midori’s personality switch when Rin is around
• Imperious, gluttonous, and bad mannered Midori Naha

Low points:

• Almost no use of supernatural powers except to get info from the manager (who probably would have told them most of that anyway).
• Overlong exposition. By my count they spent 7 minutes of 22 (almost 1/3 of the episode) talking with the manager.
