I think that Minekura does actually intend the youkai/human conflicts to parallel racial tensions, although I don't read the youkai as equivalent to any race in particular. Maybe I should say cultural tensions instead of racial? But I've read it as a not particularly tight analogy to real-world racial prejudices since v.1. Reload has impressed me by taking up some of the points about the youkai as people (rather than the youkai as plot devices) that Minekura let drop for a while.
