[…]one of the series' producers is said to have selected the Japanese characters for yûgen ("ghosts; the occult") instead of the yûgen ("limited partnership") he was aiming for, thus the punning title.
The article on Ghost Sweeper Mikami seems to imply that Yugen Kaisha was the copy-cat, and that they creators were sued by the author of the GS Mikami manga. --Armentage 20:25, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
if the dates at Ghost Sweeper Mikami are correct, they are right. GSM manga started in 1991 and the first episode was released in 1993. The two shows are VERY similar and a lawsuit would probably have won. 66.224.185.167 21:33, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
