* When meeting Lady Hanshou, the Shadow Clan daimyo asks Yumeko how her trip was. Yumeko, instructed to flatter instead of telling the truth, claims it was good; but Hanshou sees through her lie and tells her to be honest. Cue Yumeko answering that [[BrutalHonesty the trip on the Path of Shadows was horrible, they nearly died,]] and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Naganori smells of mushrooms]]. Hanshou finds her response hilarious and replies that Naganori spends so much time in his study that mold probably grows under his robes.

Added DiffLines:

* Yumeko's EstablishingCharacterMoment: hiding in the bamboo as Denga yells at her for putting salt in the teapot…''again.''
* The brief mentions of Yumeko's other prank ideas are also hilarious: disguising the cat as a teapot, making a closed door look open, or turning a log invisible in front of the steps.
* This exchange.
-->'''Yumeko:''' And you won't try to kill Okame-san?
-->'''Tatsumi:''' No.
-->'''Yumeko:''' Or leave in the middle of the night?
-->'''Tatsumi:''' No.
-->'''Yumeko:''' [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Or tie him to a tree and hang sweet potatoes from his ears until the squirrels crawl all over him?]]
-->'''Tatsumi:''' …no.
* Okame promising to lead Yumeko and Tatsumi across the mountains for a shortcut to the capital.
-->'''Okame:''' Just follow me, then. [[TemptingFate We'll be in Sun lands before you know it.]]
-->[cue GilliganCut]
-->'''Okame:''' Huh. I was sure there was supposed to be a path here.
* And right afterwards, this exchange:
-->'''Tatsumi:''' You're lost.
-->'''Okame:''' I am not lost. I'm…[[ImplausibleDeniability momentarily confused that there's a stream here, but that is a temporary setback.]] [[BlatantLies I know exactly where we are.]]
** And immediately afterwards Yumeko has to tell him where north is.
* When being welcomed suspiciously warmly in Yamatori, we get this gem:
-->'''Tatsumi:''' I don't like it. Something seems…off.
-->'''Okame:''' You mean people being nice to you? Yeah, I can see how that would be unnerving.
* Yumeko, musing about a statue of Tamafuku, the God of Luck:
-->"Does he live inside the statue then? Do you think it gets up and moves around when no one is looking? [[NoodleIncident There was a teapot in the Silent Winds temple that did that sometimes, until the day Nitoru kicked it across the room.]]"
* About stopping at an inn:
-->'''Okame:''' What do you think, Yumeko-chan?
-->'''Yumeko, eyeing the statue:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint I don't think this is a proper representation. I've never known any tanuki to have that big a scrotum.]]
-->'''Tatsumi:''' He means food, Yumeko.
* Yumeko looking at her onmyoji robes in the mirror. She doesn't like the uncomfortable outfit and pins back her fox ears, which makes her cap fall off her head.
* While following a serious scene, everything about Daisuke bringing an unconscious Okame back to reality on the Path of Shadows is hilarious.
-->'''Daisuke:''' My master used to say, [[ExpospeakGag sometimes a whisper is all that is needed to calm a storm, but when words fail, sometimes you need the thunder.]]
-->'''Yumeko:''' [[FlatWhat What?]]
-->[cue Daisuke bowing to the still-unconscious Okame, muttering an apology, and [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan slapping him hard across the face]]]
** The best part? It works.
