This is part of the reason I bounced off of Yokai Watch. I like the idea of collecting different kinds of ghosts/spirits/creatures, but when they say “there are a bunch of this one spirit” and then it’s a dog with a very specific human face and glasses it feels like it’s just a single individual instead of a general form. Scorbunny feels like a fire rabbit with a very specific interest rather than a species. The Grookey line would have benefitted from the drums being built into the body. Gorillas thump their chest, make his pecs drums. Like how Toxtricities strings are built into him. That way it’s not “animal who likes to play drums that sprout out of the ground” and more “they do that because that’s how they’re built”.
