   Catching up on some of your newer entries, and finally got to these   
   ones.   
      
   I have another example for "tsukumogami":   
   In episode 20 of "Love Hina", Motoko cites the "Tsukumogami-ki" story   
   after the group finds a self-aware 100-year-old automaton.   
      
   (That's my favourite episode of that series...)
