This weekend I watched another episode of "Burn the House Down" or in Japanese "みたらいけ、えんじょうする"! It was quite an interesting episode, with the main character, Anzu Murata, finding her way back into her job as a housekeeper for Makiko Mitarai after convincing her to let her work for her. After Mitarai lets Murata back into her house, Mitarai allows Murata to explore more of the house, being open with her and letting her clean the stairs. Murata, eager to discover more about Mitarai, explores Miratai's closet, until Miratai's son Kiichi finds her in the closet. When Murata goes to close a cabinet in Miratai's closet, Kiichi slaps her hand away, making it bleed.




Kiichi feels bad about this, and as they both head down stairs, she distracts him with another task as she heads back upstairs to explore Miratai's closet again. She is looking for a unique garment, seen in the house camera of Murata's childhood home before it burned down, which is suspected to be her mother's. However, if the garment was owned by Miratai, it would provide sufficient evidence that she was the one in the camera footage on the day of the fire, showing that she ultimately burned the house down. As Murata was searching the closet, she finds something... and the rest is for you to find out!


Not only does Murata find something crucial, but at the end of the episode, Kiichi reveals to Murata that she knows her true identity!


Overall this was a very exciting and slightly frightening episode. I look forward to watching the next episode! Stay tuned for the next episode of "Burn the House Down"!
