A kid named Donpei walked through a graveyard and finds a baseball bat on the ground with some funny writing on it. He swings it for fun and finds that anything he hits always lands where he wants. He becomes famous at school for always hitting home-runs. This bat belongs to a Youkai baseball team and this team asks Kitaro to get the bat back from the humans. Kitaro explains to the human kids they need the bat back but they won't. Kitaro offers a Baseball game at 3am to settle the issue; if the Humans win the Youkai will give up on the bat and if the Youkai win the human kids will have to give up their lives. Donpei's team accepts. The games is canceled before the game finished because the Youkai don't want to be caught in the sun. The issue is settled with the Youkai getting their bat back while the humans keep their lives. | |||

The seal on a youkai castle is taken off by Nezumi-otoko [Rat-man] and the youkai from the castle requests children from a village to be given to the castle once a month to turn them into youkai. Kitaro happens to be walking by and offers to help. Kitaro asks to borrow one girl to be bait for the bad youkai. Nezumi-otoko comes to get the girl which surprises Kitaro because they know each other. Nezumi-otoko is known to be greedy and not care for anyone other than himself and is only helping the youkai of the castle for fun. The girl gets taken from Kitaro. Kitaro gets in a series of fights with the Youkai of the castle. In the end he is flattened and his chanchanko [his magic vest] is taken by Nezumi-otoko. Kitaro channels his mind into the chanchanko and threatens to suffocate Nezumi-otoko remotely and makes him re-seal the castle. Kitaro becomes un-flattened with help from his father and saves the girl before morning. | |||
