I just went and added a bit more content. I'm new to Wikipedia, but I'm very passionate about Makai as a subject and will continue to add more to the page. I'm curious what qualifies an anime to be listed for having "Makai". Must "Makai" be mentioned in passing (such as in Pita Ten or must it actually be visited? I'd also like more information regarding Makai and how it differs from Jigoku if at all. I'm fairly certain the two are different. --NinaAnilina

I've decided to add some Shin Megami Tensei info, considering the Makai is a major part of most of the games. Anyone more knowledgable about Megaten should add what they know about the Makai's relevance. --DarkClownNizzo

[edit] Real mythology?

This entire article is about how Makai is presented in various works of fiction. Does the concept not exist in actual mythology, Shinto or whatever? From where does it originate, and what is the "real" Makai? SpectrumDT 22:28, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
