I think there were better names for the new Yo-kai Watch title.

Yo-kai Watch 2: Hadō, huh... (My info is late). Since it followed names like Ganso and Honke, which sound like store names, I thought a name like that would have been good. (Shintake is Rakugo, though). Originally, the meanings are: Ganso: The first person to start something. Honke: The first person to sell something. Shintake: The performer who goes last (the headliner) in a Yose (traditional Japanese stand-up comedy theatre). I think there were better names like 'Honpo' (main store/publisher), 'Rouho' (long-established store), 'Kemont' (head of a school/family), or 'Souke' (head family). 'Honpo' probably wouldn't work because it's too similar to 'Honke'. As for the meanings: Honpo: A store that manufactures and sells. Often the first. Rouho: A store with a long history. Not necessarily the first. Kemont: The highest authority in traditional arts. Souke: The direct main family line from ancestors. If we look at other Japanese traditional performing arts, there are cooler words like 'Yokozuna' (grand champion in sumo), 'Shūmei' (succession of a title/name), or 'Kagura' (Shinto music and dance), aren't there? I think a title like 'Yo-kai Watch 2: Kemont' or something that implies regaining honor for the 'Whatever Side' (the part I dropped out of) would be perfect. Like, 'This is the real Yo-kai Watch!' 【Reference】 Hadō: Ruling people by military force.
