Sourcing
Some of the sources used are questionable and look to be self-published, so the references need to be improved. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:51, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

Spelling
Several Japanese names in the Scroll gallery section are incorrect (e.g., mixing hiragana and katakana, missing dakuten, displaying tsu (つ) in place of sokuon (っ)). Some of the kanjis are questionable and do not match those used in the referenced pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.201.19.181 (talk) 23:45, 8 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Before they were recently edited, the Japanese names in the scroll gallery were all technically correct, since they were transcribed exactly as they names are written on the scroll, employing historical orthography (rekishiteki kanazukai) and alternative kana forms (hentaigana). For example, Uwan is spelled うハん on the scroll, ハ being a hentaigana for は. Also, small tsu was not used historically for sokuon. That said, I see how it can be unclear and perhaps confusing for readers unfamiliar with pre-modern Japanese orthography. So, I will standardize all the Japanese names to appear in modern kanazukai.

Gallery moved
Just a heads-up, I have moved the gallery on this page to its own separate page, List of bakemono featured in Bakemono no e. TheAwesomeHwyh (talk) 01:12, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Why not keep them on this page? Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
