YO-KAI WATCH

While out in the forest collecting beetles, Keita comes across a super-strange looking capsule vending machine. Persuaded by the strange voice coming from the machine, he ends up putting a 100-yen coin into the slot...and out pops a Yo-kai! This one calls himself “WHISPER”, but alas, Keita has zero interest in him.

Keita comes out of the school toilets, and gets the shock of his life when Fumika asks him if he just did a number two! He’s too embarrassed to say a single word, but his heart explodes with shame! His number twos are something he definitely doesn’t want the world to know about!

Fumika gets the fright of her life when she sees JINMENKEN—a dog Yo-kai with a human face—on her way home after dark. Seeing Fumika so scared gets Keita royally fired up, and he sets out in search of this canine menace! When he eventually does find JINMENKEN, however, the poor thing looks ever so worn out! He must have had quite the tragic past...

The kids in Keita’s class are forgetting things all over the place! Pencil cases, text books, even their school bags! Even the teacher’s forgotten something important! Keita and WHISPER take one look at each other and agree—this is a Yo-kai’s doing, no doubt about it! Keita shines the light of the Yo-kai Watch...and reveals a Yo-kai called WASURENBOU!

Keita and his friends suddenly realise that today is Valentine’s Day! Kanchi and Kuma don’t give two hoots about this special occasion—until they receive some chocolate, that is! Keita, upset at not receiving any chocolate himself, shines the light of the Yo-kai Watch to see what’s going on, and reveals a Yo-kai called MABOROSHI!

When class takes place outdoors, no one wants the job of cleaning up afterwards. That is, until Keita has a sudden burst of intense enthusiasm, and sets to work with gusto! His classmates are more than a little surprised by his new-found love of cleaning. WHISPER takes a closer look, and discovers that his friend has been possessed by a Yo-kai called MELAMELION!

Keita buys an ice cream, only to find that some of it is missing—it’s not a lot, but it’s still unacceptable! WHISPER thinks it’s all down to the staff at the ice-cream shop, but then all of a sudden, a Yo-kai appears! It turns out that this Yo-kai— KOMASAN —has come to the city from the countryside, and has a real obsession with ice-cream!

After a lesson, Keita is desperate for the toilet, but when he gets there, there’s a massive queue! He tries toilets on different floors, but there are just as many people waiting outside every single one! What’s going on!? It’s all MOREZOU’s doing! This mischievous Yo-kai is making everyone need to go to the toilet!

Kanchi knows all about the latest electronic gadgets, and has started using an app on his phone to look for treasure. But when Keita tries it out, he finds a Yo-kai called SEMIMARU instead! SEMIMARU likes to take it easy underground, but now that Keita and WHISPER have found him, apparently he’s only got one week left to live!

The local bakery’s melon bread is super tasty, but they only make a certain number of rolls each day, and just as it gets to Keita’s place in the queue, the shop sells out! He tries to visit some other popular shops instead, but wherever he goes, disappointment follows. It seems Keita’s become the victim of a Yo-kai known as TOHOHOGISU, who loves nothing better than an unhappy ending!

Today’s the day that the weekly Goro Goro comic goes on sale! Keita and his friends have been waiting all week! They all rush to the shopping centre ready to buy the comic, but once they get there, Kuma makes a very strange purchase! What’s he buying that for!? All of a sudden, Kanchi and Keita find themselves wasting money on things they hadn’t planned to buy too.

“PARRRP!” An unmistakable sound rings out in the quiet classroom. Someone’s farted! Kuma, Kanchi and Keita all look at one another suspiciously, but it’s Fumika who starts to blush! Surely not!? There’s no way she’d do such a smelly one! It must be a Yo-kai’s doing! Thankfully, Keita soon discovers the presence of “ONARAZUMONO”, a Yo-kai who makes people fart!

“I’m going to be number one in Japan!” “I’m going to set a world record!” Kuma’s started making all sorts of big claims all of sudden. It’s all talk, of course, and soon enough everyone gets fed up with it. Could he have been...? Yes! Kuma’s been possessed by a Yo-kai called KUCHIDAKEONNA, who makes people claim to be able to do things they can’t!

Now that he’s used to life in the city, KOMASAN decides to go on a visit to Sakura Tower with KOMAJIRO so that he and his brother can get a great view of the city together. But while KOMASAN is amazed by literally everything he sees, KOMAJIRO seems to already know everything there is to know, and nothing impresses him. Maybe he’s a little too accustomed to city life these days...

Keita, Kuma and Kanchi pay a visit to a hot-spring resort. They plan to start their visit by relaxing in one of the big baths, but the water’s so hot they soon start feeling dizzy! This looks to be the work of NOBOSETONMAN, a Yo-kai who dwells in hot springs, and makes any humans who venture into them feel dizzy!

It’s Golden Week, and Keita’s supposed to be going on a family trip, but he’s not particularly excited about it. And it’s no wonder—instead of somewhere fun, they’re going to a boring old waterfall! For some reason though, his mum and dad are ridiculously excited about it. Could this mean...?

It’s Mother’s Day, so Keita’s dad prepares some pancakes to show his appreciation for his mum. But when she takes a mouthful, she decides they’re better than her own pancakes, and starts sulking! It turns out she’s been possessed by a Yo-kai called SUNESNAKE, who makes people see the downside of absolutely everything!

The self-styled Yo-kai heartthrob KYUUBI is visiting the human world, and he’s determined to collect 100 of the “Heart Balls” that appear whenever someone feels a pang of affection for him. He spots Fumika on her way home from the shops, and decides to make her his final target! He turns himself into a handsome young man, and approaches her with a twinkle in his eye! Surely no girl can resist!

Oh no! Keita has overslept! He rushes to school in a panic, but when he gets to class, he finds everyone taking a nap! What on earth!? This can’t be right—there must be a Yo-kai at work! Sure enough, he soon discovers the presence of BAKU, a Yo-kai who sends people to sleep with a cloud of smoke so he can eat their dreams! Weirdly, everyone seems to be dreaming of the same thing...

Keita has an awful lot of new medals, and Whisper has just what he needs to put them in—a second Yo-kai Dictionary! Keita mentions that it must be time for another legendary Yo-kai to appear soon, and lo and behold, the book emits a bright light, and a legendary Yo-kai appears outside the house! It’s IKEMENKEN, the legendary Yo-kai with the face of a handsome hunk, and the body of a dog!

“I give up!” All the kids at Keita’s school are suddenly finding themselves unable to stick to anything, inevitably giving up on their tasks before finishing. There’s something strange about this... Keita shines the light of the Yo-kai Watch, and reveals a Yo-kai called TSUZUKANASOU! Anyone who hears this Yo-kai’s chant suddenly loses their will to persevere!

Keita is desperate to reach the same level as Kuma and Kanchi in the latest hit game, and starts thinking about how much he’d like to pretend to be sick so he could have a day off school to keep playing. All of a sudden, KAZEKAMO appears! A Yo-kai who gives people all the symptoms of a bad cold without making them sick! Keita should have no problem getting a day off now...

Keita’s mum can’t stop snacking! She makes a big meal for dinner, but she keeps picking at it while talking to Keita, and what’s worse is that she can’t remember doing it! It turns out to be the work of a Yo-kai called TSUMAMIGUINOSUKE. Keita has to do something to protect the family dinner, or there’ll be none left for when his dad gets home!

“We’re going to find something rare for sure!” Keita, Kuma and Kanchi head out into the forest in search of unusual plants, but all of a sudden there’s a weird gust of wind, and everyone becomes down-hearted and moody! Even WHISPER and JIBANYAN are down in the dumps! Who’s behind all this?

JIBANYAN and Keita get into an argument, and JIBANYAN storms out of the house. Keita and WHISPER hit the streets in search of their friend, and WHISPER reassures Keita that JIBANYAN loves him really—but then they spot him sidling up to Fumika! A pair of suspicious-looking strangers watch the scene unfold...and all of a sudden JIBANYAN disappears!

Has Fumika got a superpower!? She seems to know exactly what Keita, Kuma and Kanchi are thinking! No, it’s no superpower—she’s been possessed by a Yo-kai called SATORICHAN, who gives people the power to read minds! This power makes SATORICHAN a very dangerous opponent indeed, and Keita’s plan to tackle her causes something very strange to happen as a result...
