Its a shame but in English its difficult to find much information on these foxes. You almost have to be able to read Japanese or you're stuck reading wikipedia, one kitsune book, and a handful of translated stories.

The premise is said to have come from Chinese and Korean mythology, however the earliest Japanese stories hail from around 500 BC. Shinto lends to humans and animals living together in peace. The fox-spirit is mostly associated with Inari, goddess of rice. That is why she is represented as a fox/human.

I'm in love with Japanese culture and I think that Kitsune are one of the best ones ever. I'm trying to learn Japanese but why is there no Japanese schools in San Jose?Lol

@wendo123 Just write your comment in English. Whatever the translation application is used, the Japanese doesn't make sense. I think your English is simple enough for many Japanese to understand.

It's also said that the 'Kitsune Ball' is infact it's 'soul' which is why it's so heavily protected. Actually, ontop of Kitsune keeping their promises--- "Kitsu" originally means 'Loyalty"
Tenko fox, is just another name for a muti-tailed celestial kitsune. :3
