True and even then, only Mei and and Cole can truly identify her. Ever noticed how every ghost he's met, even the ones that can physically harm him, often show up the way they died? Now if there was no Calamity involved, Reiko and the other extras would be simple ghosts....the students save for Cole and Mei wouldn't see them. However with the Calamity, the curse doesn't fool the select few that can see them for what they truly are. While everyone else is gushing over how hot Reiko Mikami is, Mei sees a strange color and Cole sees a gaping knife wound. Judging by Mei's abilities alone, the Extra can only be seen by those with special gifts.

Now the best example would be Bruce Willis' character Malcolm Crowe. Because he wore heavy clothing, no one in the audience would see his gunshot wound. But the way Cole was looking at him, was as if he could see it, but never asked about it. That's one of many reasons we watch the movie twice. So we can find the stuff that was in plain sight.
