Once Again, a Random List of Anime With No References
Why even pay attention to this? It would be one thing if they were written, say, as an actual article with reference and citation, showing that the person who put it here wasn't an obsessive 12 year old who has never heard of spell-check. But there is this bizarre subculture in Wikipedia who seems to feel that if it is drawn as a cartoon it must be Mythology even though authors like Rumiko Takahashi have gone on record to say they take artistic liberties with the creatures they come up with (http://www.sehrch.com/?q=%28type:Works+By+Rumiko+Takahashi%29) and yet the rest of us suffer because of articles like Hitodama represent what Wikipedia is to the world ... more than just a bit of a joke.
