Funny thing about what you said about Yo-Kai Watch being a bad introduction to Japanese mythology, it was my introduction. And now I have such a fascination with it that I have drawn one historic Yo-Kai a day for well over a year now. I’m certain it wouldn’t have that same effect for other people but it sure did to me.

I'm pretty sure the Katie watch didn't get localized because they were trying to promote this franchise to boys (something that's odd to me considering every Yokai watch fan ive ever met irl is a girl) Ill always hate the stigma the monster genre has with being called Pokémon clones left and right, jesus Christ, theyre all different!

Klonoahedgehog THANK YOU!

Now if only I could play Cyber Sleuth and one of the Shin Megami Tensei games....

How about those awful reviews from people who didn't even play an hour of the game before hand? Special shoutouts go to IGN for the normal worthless garbage, GameXplain for not talking about anything past the 1st chapter showing the fact they didn't play past that in reviews for the 2nd game. Jimmy Whetizul (or however it's spelled)and the most bias review ever of the 1st game. And all the people who jumped right to "it's a pokemon ripoff" with out knowing anything about the game at all.

I address this in the video. The reviews for YW2 are slightly justified because it takes between 8 and 11 hours for anything really new or interesting to happen. Also, anything in the Mon genre is gonna get compared to Pokemon. It's kind of unavoidable.

I think it’s going towards that imo. Especially now level 5 is trying to market again in the West. We still have a shot at reviving Yokai and especially rn that Pokémon is slowly being exposed for being pretty much lazy/rushed work. I dunno. I used to be a big Pokémon fan in elementary-middle school. Now I’m in HS I prefer Yokai watch because how creative they try to teach/reference Japanese folklore.

Incredibly thorough video from someone who is obviously, finally knowledgeable about the franchise. Thank you so much for making this; You said basically everything I've said scattered throughout various places in one great video! Really, really, REALLY wish this whole thing was handled a whole lot better. Yo-kai Watch could've been so much more internationally :( Just one thing you missed: The ball ISN'T in Nintendo's court now; it's in LEVEL-5's. LEVEL-5 will now be self publishing all of their future releases, including Psychic Specters. Nintendo now has nothing to do with the franchise, as far as I know.

Feli Kun Just because someone releases a game for a specific series of consoles doesn't mean that property belongs to the company that produced said series of consoles. Look at Megaman Legends, it was released in the PlayStation series of consoles but Sony certainly didn't own it as the planned Legends 3 was to be released on the 3DS rather than the Vita if Jackass Inafune didn't abandon the project half way.

I remember when I first watched your Yokai Watch review. It was March 31st, 2015; a rainy Friday afternoon. I got home from school, and I only had one hour before going to my extra-curiculum English classes. Before going, I had fish-sticks for lunch and I was eating in on my lap while sitting in my bed, still in my casual clothes. While I was eating it I was watching that video of yours. I can't believe it's only been two years, yet I feel old.

Actually, Pokemon Sun/moon outsold Yokai Watch 2 20-to-1 in their first weekends in France according to my research. 400k vs YW2s 20k. YW2 has sold 140k copies across Europe, meaning that Pokemon Sun/Moon nearly tripled its sales in France alone. The anime also dropped off the Nielsen ratings several months ago, with shows like DBS and SnK kicking its behind like nobody's business. Netflix is helping, I'm sure, but we'll have to see.

Yeah. Comparing itself to Pokemon was basically a death sentence; not only because of the idiotic "ripoff" complaints but also because it blasted expectations into the unattainable stratosphere. I mean, I knew going in it probably wasn't going to resemble Pokemon that much, but that was only because I had heard of Yokai Watch before. To an outsider, it looked like a rookie taking on the champ...when, in Japan, that could not be further from the truth.

I do agree that Hasbro was the one who dropped the ball hardest on it, but for Disney, they didn't actually do the dub. Though I do wish a few more actors were hired for the dub. Maybe in the Third Season? Speaking of, me thinks Inaho might get more love in the west. Characters like Mabel Pines and Jade (From Jackie Chan Adventures) have been very popular over the last few years.

It's sad that Yokai Watch was hyped here in our country (Philippines) and was expected to rival Pokemon back in 2016 yet... It stopped airing here for some time and English medals had funny translations that I wished they just kept the Japanese romanization since it's still good (we can't understand Japanese language so we prefer English translation). With the watered down popularity here, toys like the watch even went to a 90% discount, and Hasbro had stop translating medals for some time that toy stores rarely put stocks. I bought both Sun/Moon versions instead.

In fact Bandai of America seems to be hit or miss recently, especially with their treatment of Sixth ranger roleplay toys (gotta love the role play toys for Dino Charge's gold ranger which had no electronics what so ever!).

I’m going to be real with you, the marketing seriously turned me away. At Th time Yo-Kai watch began airing on Disney XD I was 12. I was certainly interested, it gave me a Pokémon vibe so it felt familiar. But that god awful marketing really pushed me away, I was an anxious socially awkward 12-year-old. Playing a game, or even watching a show that people knew as “that one bad show with fart jokes” was definitely not an image I wanted for myself. So I avoided it. Now I’m more knowledgeable on the franchises source material. So I want to give it another shot, at a time that it is declining here in the states :/

NightKnight-77 on the up side it means a lot of the games are currently cheaper in a way, hell i went into a gamestop near my place and got a copy of the original game for 15 dollars. but from what i’ve heard we’re still getting the 3rd for the 3ds and the 4th for nintendo switch, which is moderately interesting in the case of level 5, but a very welcomed addition in my opinion though, i thought we wouldn’t get the 3rd considering everything is kinda an americanized stereotype for the game, but i will find it funny regardless if the writings done well.

Well some good news is that we are getting Yokai Watch Busters (renames to Blasters to avoid copyright) pretty soon, and season 2 has already started airing on Disney XD (too bad Inaho is still annoying :/ ) But I agree with a lot of the points you've made in the video, the way they marketed Yokai Watch in the states was incredibly lackluster and now they're not even trying to make such a push like before. Hell, Busters wasn't even announced until AFTER E3! But given that we are still going to get Busters here in the states means that Level-5 still wants the series to sell outside of Japan. I still have hope that we will get a localization of Yokai Watch 3 sometime in 2019, and if we do then I hope it'll be marketed way better compared to how they marketed the first game.
