Ginko smokes it out while thinking about what to do. Instead of making real choices he lets the creature in the forest come to him as he continues to smoke. He smokes some more as he seems confident that he can smoke through just about anything. As the never ending blunt between Ginko's mouth continues to burn, the story picks up through out the season. You will get the urge to smoke throughout this anime. I suggest smoking the entire you watch this good tale of how to smoke as you find whatever it is you are looking for.-MURDER MOORE
