The relationships between the different types and other supernaturals like werewolves could be very different. There's also a question of geography. Am I alone in thinking it's odd that Japanese spirits are haunting Beacon Hills, California, USA? Werewolves are reported in the legends of many cultures, and probably have a wide geographic dispersal (like real wolves). But these Japanese entities would appear in local legends more if they operated outside of Japan often. So more likely they have followed Japanese people to other countries. The old theory about supernatural creatures being linked to the collective beliefs of the people that dreamed them up. Werewolves arent really as big in other countries actually. Japan only ever had a small wolf population. The actually mythology for what we know as were wolf is very european. All cultures have a form of shape shifter but difference between shapeshifters between europe and other cultures, especially native americans, is that the supernatural was generally a curse in Europe. While for native americans it acutally had a lot more to do with spirituality. It was a good thing to be able to turn into another creature. If you think about it though it makes a lot of sense that America would have a lot of foreign entities haunting it if you consider the diverse population. Meaning that the fact that the evil kitsune is here probably has a lot to do with kiras family. Kiras mother already stated that her family had a history there so the evil spirit might be tied to that.
