however, all i got on Okami is that it seems to be a PS game. heh. This is because they were (sort of) using the wrong word - kami means deity or spirit, the o is just an honorific that can be added to certain Japanese nouns in polite situations. ...Which is really funny coming from Bobby and Rufus. XD

It was also kind of a strange choice, they would have done better with youkai which denotes an evil creature. Even so, both terms are really categories of supernatural beings, not specific creatures. This time I think the show didn't quite do their homework well enough. XD; Aside from that, I loved this episode! Bobby is such a great character, it was nice to have an episode centered on his life.

"no, not me the FBI, the real FBI!" This bit cracked me up so much.

not really - this is what i call "Kripkeology" - they take just enough of a myth and add that extra special Kripke-twist to it. =)

oh yes!
