I'm kinda miffed that all these powerful characters are so easily possessed by vengeful spirits. You would think that centuries of esoteric training, divine power, etc, would at least give them some resistance to such attacks.

I dunno if this'll help, but the idea of "youkai are especially weak to vengeful spirit possession" has been in the lore since like 2012, from Symposium of Post-Mysticism. So it's at least consistent world building, not just an asspull for the sake of this manga. Although if you don't like the general idea even from 2012, that's valid.

Is it me or does it look like Mamizou was Yamcha'd?

Also, I swear, if this is ANOTHER new spirit with a past we were never privy of...
ZUN, stop violating the basic rules of a mystery story. If you want to introduce some new spirits with some backstory that expands the lore, you're doing it wrong. The very FACT that you present this as a DETECTIVE STORY is detrimental to what you wanna do. You'd have a better chance at making it work if you'd instead present it as an occult supernatural story.
