Nope, still boring. It's a continuation of the 1968 series, with the same director and main voice cast, but in colour and with Neko-Musume in every episode. Also, unfortunately, it's still blind about what makes drama work. This series has some good (i.e. weird and gruesome) story ideas, but these may or may not come together into a character-driven story.

I'm working on the theory that this franchise needs an audience identification character. Someone human. Kitarou, Medama-Oyaji, Neko-Musume and the other youkai are a bunch of immortals with no personal stake in most stories. They're just passing through and meddling if they feel like it. Nezumi-Otoko is a scumbag who tries to exploit people for money... which is fun and means he's still the most interesting character, but there's a limit to how far even he can carry the show.

There's no story arc. It's just one-off episodes, so you can jump in and out whenever you like and there's no need to watch in order. The main innovation is Neko-Musume. She's not particularly interesting, but I'm still happy to see her. She can get fanged and dangerous if you annoy her, e.g. by breathing, if you're Nezumi-Otoko.

DECENT EPISODES

Ep.6 = Nezumi-Otoko gets married. No one can believe it, including the audience.

Eps.8,43 = with environmental themes, giving those episodes a point and something to say. The first has a licking youkai who criticises dirty humans and pollution. (If I went around licking things, I'd want them to be clean too.) The second has a godzilla caveman, Genshi-san, and the centre of Tokyo becoming a forest. There are moral reversals, e.g. it's embarrassing to wear normal clothes.

Ep.13 = Kitarou gets turned into a squid and into processed food. He's also surprisingly convincing in drag.

Ep.17 = Nezumi-Otoko's even more villainous than usual, using a magical insect to separate Kitarou from his father. Later, Kitarou sucks in gas and swells up like a balloon.

Ep.25 = the cursed train and the hat that turns you into a vampire. The infection spreads. This one's out-and-out horror, with weird fish and a pretty good fight. It's nowhere near as apocalyptic as the 2018 anime's version of the same story, though.

Ep.41 = the face-stealer episode. A meek, ugly man loves a vain, beautiful woman who wants to be even more gorgeous. Her reaction to face erasure is shocking. Mind you, Kitarou doesn't belong in the story and his introduction makes it worse and sillier.

The "film" (Chisou-me) is a twelve-minute edit of ep. 37.

There isn't much to say about this series, really. I said it all about its 1968 predecessor and there wasn't much to say there, either. It's just a bunch of not-very-good episodes.
