== Yamask Name origin ==
I don't want to add it myself, since I'm not familiar with the editing techniques used here, but I'm pretty sure it would be worth noting that Yamask may have also been derived from Yama the lord of death. In fact I think it's even more obvious than Yami... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yama
Yama is known in japan as the first mortal to have ever died.

This is probably nothing, but 'desu' and 'masu' are common grammatical sentence endings in the Japanese language. eg, watashiwa Satashi desu OR oningiri ga tabemasu. --Manga-in-a-bottle 02:16, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

desu = death masu = mask...and not trivia...desu Ataro 02:18, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
Noticed this a while ago. It may have some bearing, as if it was purely Death mask it would be desumasuku. --SnorlaxMonster 12:15, 18 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
