Add to ORKGThe uniqueness of yōkai is not only its numerous and diverse characters specifically, but also its holistic impact on Japanese popular culture. By studying yōkai\u27s history, I found that the meanings and categories of yōkai have changed according to people\u27s perception of the unknown and supernatural world. In addition, yōkai\u27s image and story evolved to accordingly cope with the unknown. Finally, I note that media has a direct influence to how people visualize and narrate yōkai. I conclude that these factors regarding yōkai\u27s creation and evolution affect how we recognize them in today\u27s pop culture
