I would never advocate watching TV-Nihon's sub of Hibiki. It's old, low quality, and has some significant translation mistakes (more on that in the next paragraph). If there's one advantage it has over the newer high definition subs, though, it's that the early 00s CGI looks a lot less bad when the entire video is running at 240p. It's a problem I have with owning Garo on blu-ray, too: even the best old CGI ages badly and this stuff was never that high quality to begin with. It's not, like, Captain Power level janky, but it was definitely made on a TV show budget.
The TV-Nihon translation misses a really critical line in this episode from when Asumu and his mom are going up the mountain trail. One of the other hikers says that Hibiki reminded him of Asumu's dad. This isn't the last time that idea will come up. It's led me to wonder if Asumu's father was meant to be an Oni, too. Sadly, that never gets addressed in more depth before the production change so it has to remain just a theory.
