I was interested in this since everyone was talking it up a lot and it's similarities to Pokemon. I haven't played the game except for a minute on a demo, but I saw an episode of the show and it really put me off. It was about a yokai that literally makes fart noises and the episode was about farting and the yokai looked like a butt.... o_o

I wouldn't let it bother me that much since the Pokemon anime is often bad too, but I also don't really like the yokai designs. They don't have the same appeal as Pokemon for me. They're mostly very weird and to me they are ugly. So yeah, it's probably not something I will pursue, though I wouldn't mind giving the game a chance. I'm not a big gamer though. The world has to interest me for me to like something!
