....shunekosuri, the little puppet guy, survive. He seems pretty frakked by the climax, yet is perfectly fine in the end scene. I thought he died.
shareTadashi's love and tears revived him, of course!
Or maybe it was the whole being-wedged-in-Kawahime's-shirt thing. Who knows.
Sune-Kosuri was transformed into an evil mechanized being, but once he died he returned to his original form, but as a ghost.
shareI don't think he was a ghost, I think the reason he was fading away was because Tadashi was growing up, and adults can't see Yokai.
--Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter--
your explanation of why he wouldnt be able to see his ghost because hes growing up is weird on miike's part cuz why would tadashi after fighting a giant war with huge terminator rejects on top of japans skyscrapers, would he stop thinking about the yokai and or stop believing they were real, lol.

He just needs to get drunk.

He's a supernatural creature, but solid. That's why he wouldn't drink the milk when Tadashi was trying to nurse him back to health. Also - at the end, Sunekosumi is supposed to have powers of "partial invisibility" according to my Yokai guide, so he was probably trying to hide a bit, while trying to let Tadashi know that Kato was making a comeback.
