I've always loved the look of the Jiangshi ever since I first saw them in the Shaman King manga many years ago. It's nice to see them represented here.

I love this series so much. I wonder if it's gonna have a season 2 for the anime
Aren't they Chinese hopping vampires though? I'm not sure you could call that a zombie.

Why does that weird black clothing remind me of Mongolic peoples in general and Kalmyks specifically?

I've seen them described as both Chinese Vampires and Chinese Zombies. Touhou definitely seems to lean more towards zombie.

They’re zombies who have rigor mortis and can’t bend their limbs. The can’t bend their legs to walk, so they hop. And they some legends say they don’t eat flesh, and just drink the blood to sustain their own bodies. Therefore either name could work.
