3* The first episode is mostly serious, but there's a moment at the very end: Mumei shows off her badass chops by beheading a Kabane with her sandal-blade... only to overshoot and get the blade stuck in a nearby post, undermining the awesomeness of the moment.
4** Even funnier, she later reappears lacking said sandal, meaning she actually failed at pulling it out of the wood.
5* Ikoma knows that you need blood to lure a Kabane and cuts his wrist to get some. He ''immediately'' regrets it after realizing just how painful it is.
6* If you're not in awe of Mumei's rampant badassery, you'll be chuckling at her nonchalance. From a casual GroinAttack on a guy twice her size for touching her, to a DynamicEntry on a pair of Kabane that steals Ikoma's spotlight, Mumei epitomizes the ability to kick butt and not care.
7* Suzuki might very well be a Crowning Character of Funny- he speaks in GratuitousEnglish complimenting his Japanese to show that he's from an English-speaking country in-universe, and the (possibly unintentional) comedy caused by him has made him an EnsembleDarkhorse.
8* Episode 4 begins with Ikoma (having lost control of his body due to a lack of blood) preparing to bite an immobilized and shocked Ayame, in a rather [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything disconcerting position.]] The reactions of his friends? Call him a perv.
9* [[BreatherEpisode Episode 7]] contains quite a few moments that could qualify, including Mumei being thoroughly impressed by Kajika's bargaining skills, Kurusu walking in on Ayame while she's stuffing her face (with the whole setup playing out [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything as if he had walked in on her changing]]), and Takumi using his holiday wish to wish for three beautiful wives.
10** Kurusu become embarassed when asked about his own wish, which is heavily implied to be [[BodyguardCrush marrying Ayame]].
11** Mumei wishes to eat a bowl of rice. In context it's a crowning moment of heartwarming, but since only Ikoma knows why, everyone else is entirely confused by it.
12** Early in the episode it's shown that Ikumo is capable of [[PowerCopying mimicking Kurusu's sword techniques]]. Kurusu gets pissy about this and smacks Ikumo in the face with his sword, only to get called out by Mumei for throwing a childish temper tantrum over it.
