My favorite? Cheeksqueak. ????? Onarazumono. Oh wait.. that's
   Yo-Kai Watch. [1]cheeksqueak     Why? Because it's an awesome
   example of subversive children's entertainment that they
   understand completely. What it says about me: We become adults
   via once having been children. Adults lie to children on a
   regular basis. By lying to children, you are tainting the
   future. But, all it not lost. Not all adults lie to children.
   Also, children cognitively recognize adults lie to them starting
   around the age of 7 (give or take) on a massive scale. There is
   truth subversively hidden in children's fiction. There are also
   lies subversively hidden in children's fiction. Part of
   childhood is discerning "Who is lying and who is telling the
   truth?" In the case of Yo-Kai Watch, there is some uncertainty
   being played with: Are there really ghosts roaming around
   controlling when good and bad things happen to us? Possibly. But
   as the story is presented clearly as fiction, there's little
   concern about it being considered Fact, although it is fodder
   for the imagination. Now what this says about me? I believe in
   speaking to people both recognizing where they're at and also
   recognizing where they _could_ be. Giving answers, even
   fictional, for "why things happen to us?" is important for peace
   of mind, as life is chaotic enough. Giving answers in a humorous
   way that simultaneously is bullshit, funny and stress-relieving,
   allows for the cognitive pathways to open for other
   possibilities without some of the harmful side-effects that take
   place when humor is caustic, mocking, or painful for another and
   causing us to view a fellow human as somehow lesser. = I hope my
   non-Pokemon answer answers your followup questions successfully

   would answer the essay question by talking about something
   parallel but different. I was testing the teachers]
