You’re probably right… its been a very long time since I’ve gone through all of Inu Yasha.
But what I was getting at with yokai is that… demons and yokai don’t quite operate by the same kind of supernatural rules as the general western conception of a demon.
A yokai can be malevolent, or helpful, or a trickster, whereas demons are essentially never helpful.
A yokai can assume its own form, or, inhabit another form, like a person or animal and morph it into another, kind of possess it.
But they can also posses objects… which is more like a … poltergeist.
Speaking of ghosts, demons, and dieties - Kyousougiga.
Kinda like FLCL, but weirder, and has that Tatami Galaxy seasoning to it too. Opening and ending songs slap hard. And all of it is a nice little 13 ep complete story. MC also sorta sorta has a wolfcut.
