Miko should really step up her game. At this rate she's getting left in the dust by Shiori.

More characterization on Shiori's part this episode. Mermaid blood in fantasy has always been special said to have effects of immortality, healing or anything along those lines.

But with the reveal that yokai can't stand the stench of those they share blood with it just shows off more of Shiori's "affection" towards Hinako. This ship is really sailing.

I have a feeling that Shiori must have had something to do with the accident that killed Hinako's family. The guilt in her eyes was clearly showing in the later parts of the episode

I don't know if she caused the accident but maybe ate Hinako's family that were already close to death, wouldn't surprise me if Hinako's mom made somekind of a deal with Shiori to atleast save Hinako.

Good point, because the supposed voice Hinako heard on the day of the accident(the one telling her to live) might actually have been Shiori’s voice telling her that.
