||
+ | At the beginning, an imagining voice explains that there was one a boy that could see Yo-kai, and fulfil deeds. As that boy grew up into an adult, he lost the ability to see Yo-kai, thus causing his Yo-kai Watch to be cast away into oblivion as it's existence threatened to disturb the balance between human and Yo-kai worlds. Over time, the story about a boy that could see Yo-kai became nothing but a legend, but something started to take place in the future. |
||
+ | |||
+ | 30 years later, Touma Tsukinami wakes up and looks at the text message at his phone. He becomes depressed at the fact that his parents aren't able to come home with him due to their working lives. While Touma gets up, he turns on the television, which is of a news report related to an approaching meteorite. As the news further explains the information about the incoming disaster, Touma walks out of his house, without suspecting some Onimaro following him. |
||
+ | |||
+ | Meanwhile, Natsume Amano is worried about being late for school and tries to get there as fast as she could. When she approaches the bridge, she notices a group of people and a child drowning in the riverbank. Despite the man warning him (then being possessed by the Onimaro), Natsume decides to save the child from drowning and manages to bring it back to land. |
||
+ | |||
+ | As she makes her way to school, she gets a flashback about being drowned, but then being saved by a mysterious force. At first, she wondered that it was a hallucination, but it was what inspired her to save other people from drowning. Suddenly, one of her friends, Saki notices her covered in water and says that she is late for school and prefers to walk than take the bus. Natsume notices Touma, but then walks away from him. |
||
+ | |||
+ | While Akinori is on his way to school, he notices the huge meteor approaching and rushes back to his home warn his grandmother about it. After his grandmother notices it, she realises that the threat is worse than imagined and says that it is the result of an Onimaro invasion. Akinori asks what they are, but doesn't know about it and his grandmother says that the invasion will cause doom to be brought upon it. |
||
+ | |||
+ | At school, Touma decides not to attend it. While Natsume changes her clothes at the gym lockers, she suddenly realises something about Touma. Back at Akinori's place, his grandmother further explains about the Onimaro virus, which in need to stop them, a Yo-kai Watch would be required. She explains that the Yo-kai Watch was destroyed by the rulers of the Yo-kai World, and it's now nearly impossible to obtain one. Akinori thoughts that it wouldn't be of use, but his grandmother goes on to explain that a different kind of Yo-kai Watch exists, which was created in ancient times. His grandmother gives him a Yo-kai Radar, and rushes out of the house in hope of finding the Yo-kai Watch. |
||
+ | |||
+ | At the Enma Palace in the Yo-kai World, Lord Ananta, the new ruler is annoyed at the lack of visitors and appriciation for him, revealing that Lord Enma is locked inside a cell. A spirit, who is actually Zazel explains to him about the Onimaro invasion, while Enma said that they came too early and is worried about the fate of the Yo-kai World. After claming that all of the Yo-kai Watches were destroyed, Enma explains the existence of the Yo-kai Watch Elda, which was created by the Genyou tribe a long time ago, and is said to contain bigger power than the other Yo-kai Watches. After asking where it could be located, Lord Enma says that they have it, but the owner of it hasn't been found. |
||
+ | |||
+ | Back in the human world, Touma walks to a video game arcade, while some of the Onimaro follow him. A group of delinquents bump into him by accident and Touma apologises for it. They suddenly notice Touma's quiet personality and makes fun of him. After Touma asked them that he was going to get mugged, he is escorted to an alleyway, gets beaten up by them and has his money stolen. |
||
+ | |||
+ | Touma starts to get angry and threatens the delinquents silently, making the Onimaro proud of him and starts to get possessed by them. He suddenly gains strength, grabbing one of the delinquents and throwing them onto the garbage bags. The other two try to fight him, but they get thrown around. When one of the delinquents try to attack him with a pipe, Touma suddenly grows a muscular arm and throws him again, causing them to flee. |

Yo-kai Watch Shadowside the Movie: The Return of the Oni King (Japanese: 映画 妖怪ウォッチ シャドウサイド 鬼王の復活 Eiga Yōkai Wotchi Shadō Saido: Oni-ō no Fukkatsu), officially known in Japan as Yo-kai Watch Shadowside the Movie: Wrath of the Demon King[1] is the fourth theatrical film in the Yo-kai Watch franchise. It was released theatrically in Japan on December 16, 2017.
The plot of this movie takes place 30 years after the original series. When a meteor is about to approach Earth, Natsume Amano, Touma Tsukinami and Akinori Arihoshi meet up with each other and work together to stop the Onimaro invasion with the power of a new Yo-kai Watch and Yo-kai that can change between Lightside and Shadowside forms.
The film itself serves as the prologue to the Yo-kai Watch Shadowside anime, which premiered a few months after the movie's theatrical debut in Japan.
Blurb
"There used to be a boy who could control Yo-kai with a mysterious watch. However, he became unable to see Yo-kai when he became an adult. With the boy's duties finished, the watch was buried away in space-time. Then 30 years later, quiet everyday life comes to an end as a fateful day beging with a comet drawing near. The terrible Yo-kai virus Onimaro infects people's malevolent intentions and spreads infinitely. The one chosen by the Yo-kai Watch is the one who can save humanity from its crisis. The bond between humans and Yo-kai may be recovered with the attainment of a new Yo-kai Watch."
Plot
At the beginning, an imagining voice explains that there was one a boy that could see Yo-kai, and fulfil deeds. As that boy grew up into an adult, he lost the ability to see Yo-kai, thus causing his Yo-kai Watch to be cast away into oblivion as it's existence threatened to disturb the balance between human and Yo-kai worlds. Over time, the story about a boy that could see Yo-kai became nothing but a legend, but something started to take place in the future.
30 years later, Touma Tsukinami wakes up and looks at the text message at his phone. He becomes depressed at the fact that his parents aren't able to come home with him due to their working lives. While Touma gets up, he turns on the television, which is of a news report related to an approaching meteorite. As the news further explains the information about the incoming disaster, Touma walks out of his house, without suspecting some Onimaro following him.
Meanwhile, Natsume Amano is worried about being late for school and tries to get there as fast as she could. When she approaches the bridge, she notices a group of people and a child drowning in the riverbank. Despite the man warning him (then being possessed by the Onimaro), Natsume decides to save the child from drowning and manages to bring it back to land.
As she makes her way to school, she gets a flashback about being drowned, but then being saved by a mysterious force. At first, she wondered that it was a hallucination, but it was what inspired her to save other people from drowning. Suddenly, one of her friends, Saki notices her covered in water and says that she is late for school and prefers to walk than take the bus. Natsume notices Touma, but then walks away from him.
While Akinori is on his way to school, he notices the huge meteor approaching and rushes back to his home warn his grandmother about it. After his grandmother notices it, she realises that the threat is worse than imagined and says that it is the result of an Onimaro invasion. Akinori asks what they are, but doesn't know about it and his grandmother says that the invasion will cause doom to be brought upon it.
At school, Touma decides not to attend it. While Natsume changes her clothes at the gym lockers, she suddenly realises something about Touma. Back at Akinori's place, his grandmother further explains about the Onimaro virus, which in need to stop them, a Yo-kai Watch would be required. She explains that the Yo-kai Watch was destroyed by the rulers of the Yo-kai World, and it's now nearly impossible to obtain one. Akinori thoughts that it wouldn't be of use, but his grandmother goes on to explain that a different kind of Yo-kai Watch exists, which was created in ancient times. His grandmother gives him a Yo-kai Radar, and rushes out of the house in hope of finding the Yo-kai Watch.
At the Enma Palace in the Yo-kai World, Lord Ananta, the new ruler is annoyed at the lack of visitors and appriciation for him, revealing that Lord Enma is locked inside a cell. A spirit, who is actually Zazel explains to him about the Onimaro invasion, while Enma said that they came too early and is worried about the fate of the Yo-kai World. After claming that all of the Yo-kai Watches were destroyed, Enma explains the existence of the Yo-kai Watch Elda, which was created by the Genyou tribe a long time ago, and is said to contain bigger power than the other Yo-kai Watches. After asking where it could be located, Lord Enma says that they have it, but the owner of it hasn't been found.
Back in the human world, Touma walks to a video game arcade, while some of the Onimaro follow him. A group of delinquents bump into him by accident and Touma apologises for it. They suddenly notice Touma's quiet personality and makes fun of him. After Touma asked them that he was going to get mugged, he is escorted to an alleyway, gets beaten up by them and has his money stolen.
Touma starts to get angry and threatens the delinquents silently, making the Onimaro proud of him and starts to get possessed by them. He suddenly gains strength, grabbing one of the delinquents and throwing them onto the garbage bags. The other two try to fight him, but they get thrown around. When one of the delinquents try to attack him with a pipe, Touma suddenly grows a muscular arm and throws him again, causing them to flee.
