I love this movie! To be honest with you, I don't really like the Yo- Kai Watch show but this movie really is clever. First, the jokes. They can be clever, like Moxismus and the bear or cringeworthy humor like the fart by the old lady. Second, the plot. Even if you don't know the plot of the show, you can still watch it and get it. The plot is that Nate loses his Yo-Kai Watch and needs to get it back by time- traveling. It really does feel like a gripping movie. And the stories about the characters are great. There was a really dark backstory for the villain that I will not mention but it was handled with maturity and I like it. Even if you aren't too interested in the Yo-Kai Watch show, you'll find enjoyment in this movie.

Let's start off with an "original" production called... Yo-Kai Watch. Where do I start with this show First off, the voice acting is bad, and I mean really bad. Everyone sounds annoying and bored. Second, the jokes are bad... They fall into 4 categories: cringeworthy, Dull, Weird and Creepy... And they also have bathroom jokes that fall into the pandering category. Third, all the characters are clichéd just like many other crappy Disney shows. The thing that's always irked me is I know this shows trying to be original but Disney Channel corporatized the show to be a ripoff of Pokemon. Fourth problem, the animation. The main animation usually is fine but the color palette usually uses 5 shades: pastel yellow, blues, reds, browns and greens. But the CGI animation is horrible! The CGI animation looks like the 3DS game except that was on a 3DS so it was excusable. That's just lazy. They also have their sappy moments. Don't watch this abomination! Luckily, it hasn't gotten a lot of views, reruns and commercials.
