When you think about it, the Yokai are very similar to the Jotnar from Norse Myth, coming in all sorts of shapes and sizes, from human-like, to animal to monsters. Some are evil and chaotic while some are worshipped as gods.

Sup brotha' All the gods and demons across our cultures are the same beings simply called different things by different peoples. Even YHWH isn't an original and has his story borrowed by Judaism from a more ancient god of the true plurality of Elohim, one of the Anunnaki. Alas, Nanna is Aphrodite, who is Venus, who is Ishtar, who is Inanna, and surely many others. All floods myths describe the same event. All apocalypses are a vision of the future. Unify all and you will see all.

They are nephilims offspring of fallen angels they are all over the world, they are cursed they have no body because their body is dead but they will continue to live her on earth as evil spirits so they wonder on earth until the end of earth but they won't belong to the new earth or paradise on judgement day their faith is already decided. They have different forms and live in elemental places they can even make their own community but we will not see them unless they want to be seen. They can even disguise their true form to humans.

Although I do like as well The Oni as my second favorite yokai in Japanese Mythology.

A lot of Japanese mythology borrows from Chinese mythology. Japanese mythology and ancient literature. Many of them are re -content of ancient Chinese literature books. It was created and re -prepared by ancient Chinese people who moved to Japan 東瀛 / 倭 in ancient times. They were written with a lot of reference to ancient Chinese books and historical content. And all of them were written by ancient Chinese文言文 (pronounced in Chinese dialect). So the content of Japanese mythology is similar to Chinese classics and mythology. Including gods and monsters. For more than 2,000 years, some ancient Chinese nobles escape to Japan 東瀛 / 倭 because of the war. After that, a large number of Chinese elites were sent to Japan by the Emperor of the Chinese Tang Dynasty. These Chinese in Japan東瀛 / 倭. They are elites responsible for establishing the Chinese regime. * At that time. Ancient Japanese region was one of the ancient Chinese cities (especially before the 13th century). It was called "東瀛 / 倭". In addition to the "Chinese regime area" established by the Chinese. At that time, there were more than 100 other indigenous countries on the island (the ancestors of the Japanese today).
