GeGeGe no Kitarō
In 2005, Takashi Miike directed a remake of "Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare" titled "The Great Yokai War". The film is not officially related to the "Yokai Monsters" trilogy, but draws a lot of its influence from similar sources, notably the legend of Momotarō and Shigeru Mizuki's "GeGeGe no Kitarō" series of the same name. Mizuki himself appears in this version, though neither the remake nor the original films make use of his yōkai creations, preferring instead to feature more traditional creatures.
