S1, E3: Yumeji continues his search for Merry. Just as he’s given up hope of being able to find her, he encounters a young girl named Minato. As fate would have it, Merry has also run into and befriended young Minato. It quickly becomes apparent that Minato has a “friend” that she only sees at night: a Dream Demon named Ichima. Yumeji and Merry have met Minato just in the nick of time as Ichima has decided to finally make her move on Minato’s body. The two team up to defeat the Dream Demon, but Merry remains stuck in the Real World. Yumeji offers to use his ability to see people’s dream auras to help Merry identify impending Dream Demon appearances. While Merry admits his ability would be useful to her, she turns him down flat. Meanwhile, in another place, a new Dream Demon is preparing an all out assault on reality.
