Mizuki Production©水木プロダクション
Who LOVES yokai? we DO we DO!!! Originally created by manga artist 水木 しげる / Shigeru Mizuki in 1959, Nezumi Otoko - ねずみ男 - Rat Man is a rodent-like yōkai-human halfbreed. He has been alive for three hundred and sixty years, and in that time has almost never taken a bath, rendering him filthy, foul-smelling, and covered in welts and sores. While he is usually Kitarō's friend, Nezumi Otoko will waste no time cooking up vile schemes or betraying his companions if he thinks there's money to be had or a powerful enemy to side with. He claims to be a college graduate of the University of the Bizarre (怪奇大学 Kaiki Daigaku). He can immobilize even the strongest yokai that accost him with a pungent flatulence attack. And akin to cats and mice, he and Nekomusume cannot stand being around each other. [wiki]
What is YOKAI u may ask? well, wiki does a pretty good job: 妖怪 Yōkai (spirit-monster or ghost, phantom, strange apparition) are a class of supernatural beings in Japanese folklore. 'Yō' means "otherworldly" while 'kai' means "weird". Yōkai range eclectically from the malevolent to the mischievous, or occasionally bring good fortune to those who encounter them. Often they possess animal features (such as the Kappa, which is similar to a turtle, or the Tengu which has wings), other times they can appear mostly human, some look like inanimate objects and others have no discernible shape. Yōkai usually have a spiritual supernatural power, with shapeshifting being one of the most common. Yōkai that have the ability to shapeshift are called obake. - wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%C5%8Dkai
