Saizo and a kid are abducted as game pieces for a pair of Yokai brothers who placed them in a trap-infested maze for a betting game.
Tropes
- A Day in the Limelight: Saizo
- Cliffhanger: Nurikabe escapes with help from his brother.
- Death Trap:
- The maze Nurikabe and his brother created for their betting games.
- Nurikabe catches Blue Logan in a trap in which he surrounds the Juusho on all sides with brick walls, then throws multiple spears and impales the walls with them, before the whole thing just explodes into a ball of fire. The Juusho brushes it off.
- Generic Graffiti: Nurikabe's first form has a number of words spray painted on him, including "GO," "No," "Boom," "Food," "Look," "Bar," and "Krash."
- Metamorphosis Monster / One-Winged Angel: Nurikabe's Battle Tile form.
- Nurikabe: The mythical Youkai in the form of a living wall that appears out of nowhere at night to impede travelers, possessing the ability to extend itself forever.
- Our Monsters Are Weird: Nurikabe
- White Mask of Doom: The fact of Nurikabe's usual form is this, though it's turned upside down. It warps after he assumes his second form.
- Would Hurt a Child: Nurikabe attacks the boy he had placed his bets on for losing the game.
