The Yokai Watch series has caught on in Japan - this is the girls comic following Fumika (aka Fumi-chan) the female protagonist from the games.
The stories are original and sometimes show new origin stories for Yokai versus what was shown in the Shonen comic, but all draw on the pun-tacular characters and settings of the games, anime, and other manga.
