Nope on "The Barber of Seville" and "What's Opera Doc".

Tale of the Yokai? I didn't really care for that episode. And Renet was only one part of why I didn't like it (implying Twilight-style that she and Mikey were fated to find each other despite having no depth or chemistry between them), but because it felt like they were just going through the motions. It retold us what we already knew, and there was very little element of surprise for me.

Well, Satan is a mythological source of evil, right? Even if evil has a source, who actually commits evil? People. So yes, there's nothing unrealistic about someone being truly irredeemably evil. The most cunning of evil people also conceal it the best. Though, for the most part, I think most of the evil of humanity is measured more in the effects of individual decisions by flawed individuals who aren't cut-and-dry evil. But malignant sociopaths certainly are real. (There are also more stable "benign" sociopaths, which can turn empathy off like a light switch, but have the intelligence and wisdom to play by the rules of society because it best suits their self-interest for everything to work out well. But I'm rambling now.)
