Just like in the Bakeneko story, he combats with a series of tools a…nd his vast knowledge of the supernatural on his side, but can only slay the Mononoke when he uncovers its form (Katachi), the truth behind its appearance (Makoto) and the reason for its unusual behavior (Kotowari).

You should watch it for its art, its colors and some horror cases that do not visually resemble almost any other anime.
It's a good fit if you're looking for folklore, mystery, psychological horror, and stylized storytelling.
What distinguishes it from other exorcisms is the rule of the sword: the Medicine Seller can only draw it when he knows the form, truth and reason of the spirit.
