Japanese spirits' world is one big ball of wtfuckery and strange hierarchies and subdivisions that get eerily specific as you delve deeper (umbrella spirits, anyone? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kasa-obake). The term yokai, as far as I've seen, is usually translated as demon, but so are the terms oni, akuma, and so on. Sometimes I've seen it alternated with "monster" as a translation in fansubs/scanlations, but then what word would they use for mononoke (and don't get me started on this one)? And the evil connotation depends on whether the author wants to play it up or write it off as a mischievous nature. Ultimately they're forces of nature, and as such they can fuck you up, or not. Sort of. You can expect anything in between curiosity and downright resentment, but you basically don't want to get on their bad side.
Anyway, I recommended these series because of Inuyasha (him being half-yokai).
These are their wikipedia articles, btw: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natsume_Yuujinchou
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nurarihyon_no_Mago
And the definition for yokai: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yokai

... I... I wrote a wall of text. I promised myself I wouldn't. Sory m(_ _)m

Wall of text is all of the yay. :)

Emma loves Inuyasha being a demon. We've had convos about what is going to happen in these last two episodes (no spoilers please!), and she would vastly prefer him to remain a demon than turn human.

I've come to realise I'm the derpiest derp that has ever derped. Spirits and stuff for children? Hayao Miyazaki all the way! His films are so beautiful, though the environmentalism can get quite obnoxious at times. Has she watched Spirited Away? My Neighbour Totoro? Ponyo on the Cliff? Howl's Moving Castle? Almost everything by this man deals with spirits and/or fantasy (Kiki's Delivery Service deals with a witch and her familiar, not spirits, but it's cute too). I wouldn't recommend stuff like Princess Mononoke or Nausicaä yet, but they're definitely good ones a few years from now. Porco Rosso is kind of in the middle.

Somebody just gave her Kiki's Delivery Service and we haven't had a chance to watch it yet. Cool!
