My kid played the download and has not seemed too interested in it. There would have to be a cartoon for them to even have a chance. I know they were supposed to bring it, but it has not caught my kids eyes yet.

I dont blame them. 

As a big fan of pokemon/Digimon, Yokai watch is soooo unappealing in its monster/character/ overall design. 

As a non Pokemon fan, Yokai watch looks way more appealing than Pokemon to me (I like Pokemon, I just got tired of it 10 years ago lol), the way it blends japanese mythology into the formula is very interesting, and its combat system seems pretty original, the graphics are superior and the art design is full of charm, that´s one of the reasons why it became so popular on Japan, looks far from unappealing.
