Revision as of 17:18, 22 November 2014
- Dawson Casting: The most recent live-action movie went out of its way to simulate the look of the 1980s anime version, except that Kitaro and Neko-Musume were played by adults. This was "justified" in-story as them having hit puberty without the older yōkai having noticed, but the actors were still clearly older than the age their characters were.
- Also Beauty Equals Goodness; the But Not Too Foreign actor playing Kitaro was Bishonen instead of short and creepy looking.
- Hey, It's That Guy!: The live action movie has Cobra Kaijin, Rijie, Gan Xing and Taka.
- Name's the Same: Partially averted. Well-known New Age musician Kitaro took that stage name in honor of this manga, but written with different kanji.
- No Export for You: Almost none of the Manga has been translated into English, not even through scanlantions. This is beginning to change, slowly but surely with scanlations, and partly because in the summer of 2013 an official English translation was finally released by Drawn & Quarterly, though it's only one volume of carefully selected stories.
