The deep message that the story of Ushio to Tora wants to vehiculate is a noble one. The respect for the Nature which acquires humanoids appearances and behaviour in the Yokai. Humanity should live in respect of natural things to survive. The collaboration of the mankind, personified by Ushio with the legendary Yokai is the only opportunity to defeat the evil Hakumen no Mono. Very meaningful is the fact that Ushio, with the power of the Beast Spear recedes to a more primitive condition: only when he manages to control itself and its emotion he will be able to win the war between Good and Evil.
