Yes 😏 it can be. There's literally thousands of kinds of yokai in every shape and form one can imagine. Many are harmless, but some are pretty nasty.
I'm sure if one looked hard enough, one could find a yokai with black skin & fat lips who eats all your watermelons & goes on welfare 😆
The Tengu is a jew, the Japanese think so there's a whole Japanese documentary made that was talking about how the Tengu were probably jews. . The Tengu even have a scroll called "tora scoll" (as in torah scroll). . If the Japanese think Tengus are jews whats to say the Nigawarai can't be jews
I'm not saying it isn't, just that it could be coincidence given the sheer volume of yokai.
The resemblance to modern caricatures of Jews is pretty uncanny though.
Turns out those "antisemitic caricatures" were more proto-memes than anything
Black skin and big lips is a lot of Yokai. They tend to be mischievous thieves as well.
So it will be hard to find one that isn't.
