christ what an asshole

That is an extremely specific spirit. Like, are there supposed to be lots of them? And they do nothing but move pillows from head to toe, literally?

Yup. That’s it, that’s how the Makuragaeshi do.

Oh man, there are a metric ton of different youkai and spirits, a lot of which just do one or two specific things, just to mess around with humans. Let me tell you about a few.

There’s tenjōname, a youkai that licks ceilings. That’s it, that’s all it does

Akaname is the similar, only they like to lick up filth and grime, sort of like youkai cockroaches

There is a youkai sparrow called Nyuunai Suzume that literally just eats all of the emperor’s breakfast, that’s its spoopy supernatural ability

And of course, there’s Shirime, a youkai whose sole existence revolves around scaring people with its freaky butt-eyeball. Yes, you read that right. Butt-eyeball.

There are many, many more. Too many to list here. I recommend reading through yokai.com, it’s got some interesting information.
