Yo-kai Watch | comment |
The Animated Adaptation of the popular Yo-kai Watch video game series.The series is about an eleven year old boy named Nate who finds a capsule machine while looking for bugs in the woods. When he opens a capsule from the machine he releases a Yo-kai named Whisper, who decides to become his butler out of gratitude. He later gives Nate the titular Yo-kai Watch. The Yo-kai Watch enables Nate to see other Yo-kai by shining a light on them. Using Yo-kai Medals, gained from befriending Yo-kai, Nate can also summon Yo-kai, to battle other Yo-kai who are causing trouble in the neighborhood.Overall very successful for a children's anime, the series boasts several movies and quite a few international dubs.The anime continuity includes a Darker and Edgier spinoff title starting in late 2017, called Yo-kai Watch: Shadowside. It centers around Keita/Nate's daughter and son, Natsume and Keisuke, as they go around solving spiritual cases surrounding Yo-kai that can now switch from the harmless looking "light side" and the dangerous "shadow side" forms. The series began with the fourth main series movie Yo-kai Watch: Shadowside - The Return of the Oni King before getting a television series of its own.Another spinoff title, Yo-kai Watch Jam - Yo-kai Academy Y: Close Encounters of the N Kind, which focuses on a High School AU featuring Jibanyan as a teen transforming superhero, began in 2019. Like Shadowside before it, Y began as one of the annual movies (Yo-Kai Academy Y: Can a Cat Be a Hero?) before being made into a television anime that premiered later in 2020.On April 2019, a reboot debuted with Nate returning as the main focus and concluded on December of that year. A second reboot aired from April 2021 to March 2023. | |

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Episode 83 shows Nate grocery shopping with his mom, but he doesn't want to be seen with her, and when surrounded by his friends, he says he's shopping alone. His mom then shows up and asks if he wants to try on some new underwear since all of his current pairs are full of holes, causing Nate's face to turn red until he collapses on the floor. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Early episodes in the second season feature a detective story arc, for Hailey and Usapyon and some of which involve murder. But since the victims are Yo-kai, their deaths can be undone. The fourth film features a less cartoony art style and is a lot darker than the usual Yokai Watch fare. The protagonists are also older than Nate because the plot itself takes place after a 30-year timeskip when Nate lost the Yo-kai Watch after becoming an adult. Yokai are shown to have two types of forms: a light-side and a shadow-side. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Manjimutt is usually treated as an alcoholic hobo every time they bring him in. In episode 7 of the Disney XD dub, when Whisper's head swirl is mistaken for ice cream by Komasan and subsequently attempted to be eaten, Whisper gasps before saying that it feels surprisingly good, while blushing. To take the cake, his scream when the camera pans away is even more suggestive. Fidgephant, the Yo-kai causing Potty Emergency in everyone, is a little elephant. They beat him by making him pee from his trunk. And that's where his Yo-Kai Medal comes out from. B3-NK1 in #23 can extract the core functionality of any machine by shoving his blade roughly into it. They get Robonyan to fight him, he shoves his blade into Robonyan... and Robonyan likes it a little too much. One ep has Nate unknowingly caught in between two raving virulent fandoms, one for the Yo-kai Noko, and one for pandas. Thanks to the Yo-kai Pandanoko (just the Noko in black and white), Nate spends a little objective observation time with each of the two fan communities, and comes to the conclusion that they're not so different. One ep has the Yo-kai Copperled, which causes anyone to be excessively bossy. Then it affects Katie, and Nate decides he'd rather have Katie be bossy to him all the time, if it meant they'd end up spending a lifetime together... The first segment of the reboot's episode 35 has Nate inspirited by Ghostess, who seems to enjoy having her do everything for him; having the same blissful expression throughout his morning routine... which includes Ghostess dressing Nate in one motion, removing his PJs and giving him his shirt and pants, getting a glimpse of his underwear before Ghostess nursemaids him while in the bathroom. | |

Badass Adorable: Jibanyan would sometimes become this when he isn't slacking off. Shogunyan is not only badass and cute, but he was even able to slice Whisper in two with his sword. However, Whisper managed to survive since he's a Yo-Kai. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Whisper frequently talks directly to the audience, usually to make a snide remark about Nate at the end of an episode. Characters can often interact with split screens, and push it away. In the episode where Nate and Whisper meet Cadin. A timer pops up throughout the episode and Nate, Whisper, and Cadin would sometimes bring up that the timer is still in the way. In "Yo-kai Bowminos" Nate mentions meeting So-Sorree "40 episodes ago." | |

Failed a Spot Check: Yo-kai Venoct is on the hunt for a fearsome warrior, known only as "Rubeus J", a flaming red creature who lives in a house with a white strategist that is known to give the wrong information, and a page whose only power is his astounding normalness... and he's asking Jibanyan about him. And never seems to notice how close he is. Justified as Rubeus J really is someone else! | |

Limited Wardrobe: Literally, in every episode, Nate's classmates wear nothing other than their trademark outfits, but they do have some alterations in episodes set during colder times of the year like jackets, longer sleeves and socks. Nate and Hailey subvert this since they have different outfits in season 2. Though Hailey went back to her old outfit in #120, Nate gains his outfit from the third game. | |

Enduriphant, whose entire shtick is resisting any urge, helps Nate with winning a contest. The final round, Nate is up against the reigning champion....the guy who trained Enduriphant. It doesn't take long for the Yo-kai to admit defeat. And in a later episode, he easily fends off a Fidgephant's Potty Emergency power....only to be assailed by a flash mob of them until he has to pee so badly he de-evolves into a Fidgephant. | |

The Dentist Episode: One segment has Nate visiting a dentist due to a cavity. In an inversion on the norm, the dentist is the one who is scared (due to a yo-kai making him lack confidence). | |

Poverty for Comedy | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_4ed04fde | comment |
Poverty for Comedy: Manjimutt is typically depicted as being the apex of Butt-Monkey status. The proof of this is when he gets inspirited by Supoor Hero, whose power is to make victims unlucky and poor, but ends up having no effect as Manjimutt is already at maximum level of poverty. This only serves to make him even more depressed. | |

Three Shorts | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_4ef0ebb0 | comment |
Three Shorts: Somewhat unusually in an era where single-episode shows are the norm, Yo-kai Watch operates on this principle. An "episode" usually consists of a very short, 90-second-or-so pre-credits short, followed by two eight-to-nine minute shorts separated by a commercial break. These shorts may or may not have plot links, depending on a given episode. This has the side effect of making Yo-kai's pace feel almost breakneck at times, compared even to other children's shows. | |

Thinly-Veiled Dub Country Change | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_5b0a14b1 | comment |
Thinly-Veiled Dub Country Change: The Disney XD dub seems to be trying to make the series take place in the US. This is despite the fact it's incredibly obvious it takes place in Japan. The names are westernized, the currency is referred to as USD, the text is in English, and various changes allude to it taking place in the US (though it's not as blatant as early Pokémon and most of the changes aren't visual edits). | |

Inconsistent Dub | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_5b607875 | comment |
Inconsistent Dub: The anime is inconsistent to the games when it comes to how much of a Thinly-Veiled Dub Country Change the serie is. This is due to different localizers between mediums. The games feature more Japanese references then the anime. For example, you can buy rice balls in the games, but the anime has Komasan eating "marshmalllows" and calls the green tea that Hungramps pour on rice "guacamole gravy". | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: To distinguish itself from other Mons anime, the adaptation heavily focuses on Yo-kai having the power to possess humans or other Yo-Kai to influence emotions and behavior. Unlike the games, Yo-Kai rarely if ever directly fight each other, and hardly ever use "Soultimate" magic spells. One episode was even a Take That! against fans who wanted more Yo-kai combat. | |

Jerkass Ball: Nate and his friends can slip into this sometimes. One example is in episode 51 when Eddie and Bear get into an argument with Katie, Sarah, and Chelsea over whether pandas are better than Nokos (a snake creature in Japanese mythology). They put Nate on the spot and demand (not ask, demand) his opinion. Nate not wanting to offend either side says they're both cool. Rather than respect his opinion like good friends and kids should, they instead criticize him for not being able to dedicate himself to one side. At the end, they realize that both animals are cool and how silly their argument was, but never apologized to Nate. | |

Animation Bump: On episode 1, during the second time Whisper tries to stop Nate from walking away from him, the animation suddenly gets more dynamic and smooth as he smashes into a bunch of tree branches. Dismarelda has one of the smoothest summoning dances of the entire array of summoning dances. Jibanyan's summoning dance is as dynamic as it is iconic. Babblong's summoning dance is pretty smooth. Some of the Model Zero summons are noticeably smoother than others. Such as Count Zapaway's and Toiletta's. Venoct's fight against Reubus J is very well-animated, especially for a comedic Slice of Life series. | |

Sudden Downer Ending | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_8124e7a6 | comment |
Sudden Downer Ending: The 2019 series ends on one. At his companions' behest to win the throne of the Yo-kai World, Nate uses Lord Enma's Onechanside. This summons Robonyan F, who turns into a table with an "End Everything" button. Whisper presses the button. The arena explodes 30 seconds later, but Nate, Whisper, and Jibanyan make it out. The final scene of the show is Enma and Zazel standing over the ruins of the arena and musing that it's really the end. A storm appears overhead and Enma prepares to fight. Yo-kai Watch Jam - Yo-kai Academy Y: Close Encounters of the N Kind reveals that Snap Back is subverted in this one instance. Whatever came out of this storm not only sticks, but it destroys the Yo-kai World and kills almost every Yo-kai. | |

In this new reality Jibanyan is replaced by Baddinyan, Hidabat is replaced by Shadow Venoct, Robonyan is replaced by Goldenyan (who only wants to solve challenging problems to further their status), Whisper himself promised Katie to memorize everything about Yo-Kai and is not allowed to use his pad and develops a "special attack", "Ultra Super Sonic Whisper Tornado" which involves Katie throwing him at the Yo-Kai causing trouble. Katie treats Whisper kindly (though the act doesn't follow through when she weaponizes him and doesn't listen to Whisper's pleas to stop...) | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The exact location of Springdale: In Japan, Robonyan and Baku's Recap Time shows that is somewhere between the Kansai and Chogoku regions. Robnyan's recap in the Us states that Springdale is somewhere in Georgia, though Baku's shows they're in the New England area. | |

The Japanese version at least is loaded with this. It is absolutely filled to the brim with references to late Showa and early to mid Heisei era pop culture (e.g. the first ending theme being a reference to “Boot Camp” diets popular in the early 2000s, the Police Procedural parody segments being straight-up just “Taiyo ni Hoeru-zura!”, a blatant reference to popular 70s-80s Police Procedural “Taiyo ni Hoero!”), I.e. the exact pop culture the parents of the kids watching would be really familiar with, that will certainly fly over the heads of all but the most pop-culture savvy kids and is clearly intended for the parents. | |

In one segment, Whisper wants ideas for a TV show. Komasan suggests "an all-night discussion on countermeasures to the declining birth rate". The second segment of the reboot contains Whisper with his face deep in a Play Boy magazine. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_984ef9ef | comment |
One ep has Nate unknowingly caught in between two raving virulent fandoms, one for the Yo-kai Noko, and one for pandas. Thanks to the Yo-kai Pandanoko (just the Noko in black and white), Nate spends a little objective observation time with each of the two fan communities, and comes to the conclusion that they're not so different. | |

Ridiculously Alive Undead: Yo-Kai are ghosts who are often seen eating. Jibanyan the cat-based Yo-Kai in particular loves eating chocolate bars and Hungramps can make anyone, including his fellow Yo-Kai, hungry. Cheeksqueek's debut episode reveals that Yo-Kai can fart (though Whisper tries to deny this at first) and Fidgephant's debut shows that they can use the bathroom when Fidgephant uses his Potty Emergency-inducing powers on Roughraff and later Manjimutt. | |

Absurdly Youthful Mother: Perhaps even more prominent on Mrs. Adams here than it is in the games. She's still got the loose, flowing hair, the younger facial cast, and the fashion sense of a college undergrad (that scarf!), and on top of that she also gets into knowingly goofy shenanigans for her son's sake (like the beginning of episode 3) and has a very close bond with him as a result, and in the show is also only about six inches taller than Nate, if that. She's supposed to be in her thirties, but you really gotta wonder sometimes... | |

Expository Theme Tune: The trailer for the English dub has one, though it's not used in the anime itself.

Our Spirits Are Different: The US marketing tried to emphasize that Yo-kai aren't exactly ghosts or monsters or fairies or anything. Even in Japan, the game's Yo-kai are differentiated from classical folklore by playing up the Emotion Control aspect. | |

Hope Spot: Manjimutt's longest prison stay to date may be shortened, after he inadvertently helps an undercover agent to (literally) dig up evidence of another inmate's serial murders. Then it turns out said inmate is onto him... Oh, and they release the wrong guy. | |

Aesop Amnesia | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_c435ec5d | comment |
Aesop Amnesia: In episode 18, Nate is told to watch the house if the mailman stops by while his mom is out running errands. He leaves the house and is chased by Gargaros whose purpose is to punish disobedient kids. He defeats it by returning home, only to get punished by his mom and does the same thing in episode 62. Nate never seems to remember that summoning Jibanyan when Snottle is causing trouble is a bad idea. This is also the case with "Komasan Taxi" segments, where the yo-kai both Komasan and Komajiro deal with about the complaints parents made about certain actions. That said yo-kai said he/she will change their ways, but will revert back at the end of the segment. | |

Yo-kai Watch / int_c5237cf | comment |
Ridiculously Average Guy: This is Nate's defining trait, with even his school record constantly being average. Walkappa is so simple and honest that Tattletell isn't able to get him to confess any dark secrets, defeating her. None of his secrets are actually secrets because they're commonly known myths about the kappa or otherwise not at all embarrassing. | |

Yo-kai Watch / int_c5ef2d50 | comment |
Cringe Comedy: Some episodes delve into this, almost all of them have some connection to Nate and Katie, notable examples include the episode with the three seaweed dancer Yo-Kai and Rockabelly. note Though, the latter is slightly Nate's own fault due to his choice to summon Dismerelda (a Yo-Kai who makes people sad and angry) when a Yo-Kai who causes people to be jokey was around. The last bit of episode 83. Simply needs to be seen to be believed. | |

Yo-kai Watch / int_c9e20e01 | comment |
Unexpected Kindness: Jibanyan remembers that his owner Amy bitterly told him he was lame for letting himself get hit by a truck. In episode 26, he goes back in time and sees how much affection she gave him; she said she loved him, took him for rides on her bicycle, and brought him along on shopping trips. He's confused about her actions because of what she supposedly said before, but then he finds out that he completely misremembered the event where he died. He pushed Amy out of the way of the oncoming truck and upon realizing he was dead, she clung to his body, tearfully saying how much she'd miss him and that she blamed herself for his death. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: Most Yo-Kai are Invisible to Normals without the Yo-Kai Watch, however the visibility of Yo-Kai is largely inconsistent, with some Yo-Kai being visible with little explanation. Alternatively the segments where Komasan can be seen are alternate universes since there's a series where Komasan and Whisper are police detectives and both of them can be seen. | |

Supernatural Hotspot Town | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_cb360d4e | comment |
Supernatural Hotspot Town: Played for comedy, since it is an all-ages show. The first season occurs in Springdale, a modern port town where Nate Adams lives. When he goes to the mountains to catch bugs, he finds a gachapon machine and a youkai named Whisper inside. Whisper gifts the boy a Yokai Watch, which he can use to detect other yokais (Japanese spirits/ghosts). The series's premise is that there are yokais everywhere (school, mall, subway, downtown, etc.), but the anime mostly focus on Nate's misadventures around his hometown. | |

One mini-arc has Nate possessed by... something that causes him to treat the school lunch like this. #55. The boys of Nate's class go all out to do favors for the girls just before Valentine's Day, leading to Whisper and Komasan doing color commentary. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: In the Christmas episode, Ol' Saint Trick, a Santa Claus-like Yo-kai subjects Nate to some multiple choice quizzes and if he answers wrong, he gets sucked into one one of his bags. Whisper and Jibanyan get themselves trapped, and for the final quiz, Nate has to choose one of three bags, Whisper and Jibanyan are each in one bag and a pair of cleats is in the third bag. Nate chooses the cleats. The Yo-kai releases Whisper and Jibanyan since Nate was honest. Whisper and Jibanyan call Nate out for it. | |

The first segment of the reboot's episode 35 has Nate inspirited by Ghostess, who seems to enjoy having her do everything for him; having the same blissful expression throughout his morning routine... which includes Ghostess dressing Nate in one motion, removing his PJs and giving him his shirt and pants, getting a glimpse of his underwear before Ghostess nursemaids him while in the bathroom. | |

Yo-kai Watch / int_e9327f58 | comment |
Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: Wazzat can eat people's memories, until it goes up against Manjimutt, the Butt-Monkey who's got a lifetime of horrid memories. One episode has the Pig Man Yo-kai Sproink forcing everyone out of the hot tub at the bathhouse by making it too hot for them... but then this old dude comes along and turns it even higher, forcing Sproink out. Espy, a mind-reading Yo-Kai, can only be stopped by Nate imagining the grossest thing possible for her to run from. It's just Nate changing his underpants in rapid succession. That's healthy, right? Enduriphant, whose entire shtick is resisting any urge, helps Nate with winning a contest. The final round, Nate is up against the reigning champion....the guy who trained Enduriphant. It doesn't take long for the Yo-kai to admit defeat. And in a later episode, he easily fends off a Fidgephant's Potty Emergency power....only to be assailed by a flash mob of them until he has to pee so badly he de-evolves into a Fidgephant. | |

Cultural Cross-Reference: One was added in via the dub implicitly taking place in America. After Whisper explains to Nate what tengu are, Nate says he didn't have to do that, because tengu are such famous mythological figures that he's heard of them already. Walkappa is treated similarly, as Nate has heard of Kappa despite being implicitly American, and knows enough to know they're supposed to like cucumbers... which Walkappa says is just stereotyping. | |

Running Gag | |
Yo-kai Watch / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Nate blaming every damned thing on Yo-kai, which finally gets called out by Whisper. (He's usually right, but still.) Whisper relying on a Wiki to get information on Yo-kai and Nate calling him out on it. Nate constantly always being called average by others, which often angers him. Hidabat, being a Hikikomori, brings Nate's closet with him every time he goes "outdoors", much to Nate's annoyance. Nate fishing out Mermaidyn everywhere he fishes, no matter how small the body of water. Later done on purpose as he summons her this way instead of using the Yo-kai Watch. Jibanyan getting summoned at the worst possible times to fight the nose-picking Snottle. Hungramps and Grubsnitch devouring rice-bowl Yo-Kai whenever they make an appearance. Usapyon going into "Invader Mode" whenever Hailey is off-topic over a task or bringing up irrelevant conversations. In episode 91, Whisper getting cut out of every photo, even the one where he gets fused with Jibanyan Notably averted in episode 58, when Count Zapaway refused to reveal where the remote was in his second appearance as Nate didn't bother to just use the buttons on the TV again. Count Zapaway's little song he sings while the remote is being found however did make a return. | |
