Inspirited Away (Japanese: おおもり神社の神隠し, Oomori Jinja no Kamigakushi) is a quest in Yo-kai Watch 2. The quest can be started by talking to the Talisman Man at Mount Wildwood Shrine and is recommended to be completed around Level 17.

Quest

The quest starts off with a Talisman Man asking if the player came to buy a talisman. However, he says it is no place for little kids, as people have had the nasty tendency to disappear from the shrine, not on their own. They come up to relax a little bit, then out of nowhere, they seem to disappear into thin air. More specifically, people have been disappearing around the stairways leading up towards the shrine. Everyone who had disappeared all came back after a spell, smiling tons. But the strangest thing was that none were able to recollect where they had been. It is speculated by the Talisman Man that it might be the shrine's guardian angel doing all of this just for some boisterous fun.

After walking around and finding Mirapo, a suspect for the disappearances, Whisper claims this isn't the real culprit. The protagonist soon follows up, saying that Mirapo has the power to transport people to other places. Mirapo adds to that and verifies that he can indeed do such things, and then asks if the player wants him to transport them. Without waiting for an answer, Mirapo will slurp the player in, transporting them to a lively festival. It is clear that Mirapo is the one causing disturbances around the shrine, but Mirapo says that the people he's transported have been requested to be transported there, and he was merely helping out the Yo-kai asking for help. The player will still be in Mt. Wildwood Shrine, but there will be several decorative lighting up the festival. Wandering up to see what the festival is about, Whisper begins to sense a strong Yo-kai nearby, who ends up being Don Chan. He begins to tell an extremely short story of his life before being a Yo-kai.

The protagonist questions if Don Chan is responsible for the disappearance of people, to which he responds by urging them to be quiet and just have fun at the festival! He will proceed to challenge the player to a battle. After that, Don Chan will pridefully admit he is the one swiping people away and say that nothing beats a festival. Since there was not a single thing greater than a festival to him, he wanted to enjoy one every day! He ended up making his own, but it just wasn't much fun all alone, so he made Mirapo snatch whoever he saw. It is revealed that before leaving, Wazzat erases everybody's memories, explaining why the people have no idea from where they came. After the player is done speaking to him, he tells them to enjoy the festival and lets them go on their own, allowing them to visit the festival as often as they'd like!
