** In the Halloween episode, Neko-Musume expresses an utter loathing for Halloween because even japanese people celebrate only western yōkai and not japanese spirits as her: when Mana invites her for a pumpkin ice cream, she accepts and when she sees Mana dressed up as NekoMimi version of herself, she accepts her praises and applauds her courage.

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: While still "odd", the earliest incarnations of Kitaro were {{gonk}}ish if not quite ugly. His 2007 and 2018 counterparts by comparison make him look much more of a normal ten-something kid with outdated clothes and bangs over his blinded eye. These incarnations are all collectively more conventional-looking than the Kitaro of the kamishibai he was based on, which gave him wild hair, gnarly teeth, and a more monstrous appearance.

* StrongFamilyResemblance: The 2018 anime and ''Kitaro Birth'' give him a form that looks almost exactly like a Kitaro, but older and white-haired, and with similar abilities.
