Also, like you said, the Oni went about marking any supernatural and pseudosupernatural (Lydia) creatures they could find in Beacon Hills while looking for the Nogitsune. If there was something about Danny that piqued their interest, they would have scanned him and given him the kanji. I just chalk that scene up to dramatic flair on the writer's part. That would make 3 seasons, not over 4 seasons.

Anyways, if one stopped to look at him then there was something about him (maybe it was a very minor thing and the Oni knew it wasnt worth looking into?). The fact that he knew about the supernatural all along only adds to the idea that there's something up with Danny.
