It's indeed one interesting thing to note, currently I'm surprised they translated Pocky and Rocky at all. I mean, the main characters are a miko (Japanese priestess) and a Tanuki (some sort of youkai (Japanese natural spirit/demon) with supernatural powers) and back then the US audience didn't even knew what a "kappa" was (even Final Fantasy VI's kappa was translated as "imp", but it can also be defined as "goblin" too). There were some other localization, like the religious tag thingies (I believe they are called "ofuda tags" but don't quote me on that) are magic cards and the oharai wand is some sort of magic stick if I recall.
And bats are cool. Bats, vampires, etc. They do have some sort of.. I don't know XD But keep them coming ;p
