>>42337305>technically literally anything can become a yokaiMy favorite are tools, you mistreat them and let them rust on a certain night of the year they'll pay you back for it. Ever see Hellsing Ultimate? That weird spirit pestering Allucard in his sleep, that the spirit of his gun, the tools of his trade and him being a vampire of course doesn't give a crap about it or threats of reprisal.
>there isn't exactly too much media with british or american animals becoming yokaiExactly so why are YOU insisting that every fox must be a Yokai? Kitsune =/= Yokai tthat was the point I was making, it literally just means fox. Mistaking it for the Yokai is like saying Wolf in English and expecting it to mean the same thing as Skinwalker in Navajo. There is a seperation, the language and the mythology, they are not as intrinsically linked as you think it only seems that way because as the language evolved it weaved its way into the legend to make it comprehensible
