THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well that escalated pretty quickly.

Good thing they reached Uka though. I admire Inari's determination to help her out of that cave. 7/10. I liked the bond between Uka and Inari throughout the course of this show. Some parts of the series imo felt rushed and wasn't really resolved. There's still an OVA episode so I'll probably watch that.

Anyone familiar with the manga have any recommendations on how to pick it up after finishing this series?

I know that this episode wrapped up with chapter 24 but I'm not sure if I should pick it up there or if there is anything that got left out of the anime that is worth reading back through first.

Loved the beginning with the fox hurdle scene ^^

Quite the bittersweet ending :*)

The emotions were pretty nice and the OST was great :D

So does this happen in the manga too? Inari never sees Uka again the end? Or something happens?

7.5/10 good series and wouldn't mind a S2

Inari returns the Divine Power to Uka... At least she's saved.

I was hoping for Touka X Uka.. Guess that's not happening..
Wait, so can he still see Uka though even if Inari can't?

Definitely looking forward to the OVA!

"You're hurt! No, it's just a few scratches!" I've lost the count of the times I've seen this happening.

And nothing about Sumi and Keiko was ever mentioned again. Now, OST when? It's pretty 2huastic.

I'm happy they can't see each other anymore... since they added a touch of reality in there... since we can't really see gods and stuff... (NOT Religious so please don't shove it down my throat)

In the Manga if I remember correctly Inari develops her own Divine Powers and trains with Uka in the World of Kamis but they definitly dont part thats for sure and the ending felt pretty rushed they atleast could have added a ToukaXUka scene :/

you should start with chapter 20, since mangas quite differs on how they end the arc.

All those illuminated foxes traveling to the Celestial Plains looked so awesome!

Was Amaterasu really willing to let Uka just fade away if Inari had not have come to the rescue? That ugly, long-eared bitch! She didn't even seem to want to intervene either. I can't believe she told Uka's parents that they were spoiling her. Not wanting to see your child fade away into oblivion is considered spoiling them? Wow!!

Glad Inari gave Uka her powers back. If she would've kept them any longer, I'm more than sure that she would have caused all of Japan to crumble into the sea.

I think it wrapped up nicely for just 10 episodes.

I'd actually suggest starting from the start, since the anime leaves out many, many parts from manga, like Inari and Kouji going on a date shopping together and how Sumizome became jealous of Inari (in anime it took only a single episode, while in manga it had more of a build-up).

Oh well, we can still hope for a second season, since there are many things that anime didn't have time to cover, like
and other things yet to come...

I'm actually not sure how I should feel about the way it ended. I kinda liked it because it was quite touching but I'm also very sad/disappointed that none of the romance pairings were "finished". We can guess that Tanba x Inari is something that would happen if this series had continued and probably Touka x Uka would've happened too, which I both wanted to see happen (not as a very likely outcome but I mean the "partners" knowing about the feelings of their "partner"). was also curious about Sumizome (?) and her yuri love for one of Inari's friends.
I guess I'll have to read the manga and hope that these romance aspects will be shown ^^

Overall, a nice series. I think some episodes were better than others but it was mostly consistent. Main issues were that I didn't really care much about the Uka and Inari relationship as much as the other subplots. The forced love that Sumizome had for Sanjou was unnecessary and was just there to satisfy male audiences.

I'm terribly sad it's over. I really want to know what Uka and Touka are going to end up doing... and I wish there was more than an unaired episode left to tell us things. Something tells me the unaired episode won't really touch on any of the romance we didn't get to see. Tanbabashi was super adorable at the end.
I definitely enjoyed every beautiful episode of this anime. 8/10

ED as OP, and OP as ED. Brother also went to save his own sister, but got kicked by the foxes halfway who came with the main girl. Everyone, including the brother and the foxes, helps out with opening up the gate. Seeing them trying so hard, that higher up led her go through. After few talks, she was able to return the power. She cannot see her anymore, but still remembers her, that's nice. Nice character song from the main girl.

It's nice that the hghier up god is letting female god to continue look after humans after hearing how interesting they are.

Cannot for the ep. bundled in volume 8.

8/10 and probably best thing this season (not hard to do).
Relaxing and cute show, there were some parts that didn't work perfectly but also a lot of nice stuff.

I do like spoilers from manga here :) time to check it probably.
And also time to rewatch Kamichu! as those two are kind of similar.

'twas good in the beginning, reached its peak, then went steadily downhill for the rest of the season.

I enjoyed Inari as a character but the appeal of the show fell significantly throughout the season. Ah well.

5 is average, so 4/10, slightly below average.

Touka has been, and always will be able to see Uka. His ability to see Uka-sama has nothing to do with Inari's ability to since she wasn't able to see her until she got divine powers :)

Nice ending, I like Uka-sama's words at the end about humans ^^

Inari gave Uka her power back so effortlessly...
Almost makes me wonder what all the fuss was about.

I disagree that the potential Sanjou and Sumizome pairing was just there for the male audience only.
This isn't Sakura Trick. Idk it seemed that males (actually most people that commented here) liked to ride the Touka X Uka train.


Anyway, I thought the show was alright.
I liked the Inari and Tanbabashi paring but we didn't get a confession or anything solid going on, just kind of a watered-down ending with no real conclusions.
Makes me a bit sad but it's what i've come to expect from on-going source material adaptations.


According to MAL the OVA is abot Inari and Kon.
WHY? I don't want to see Kon. Kon does nothing to fill the void.

Anime was nice but it wasn't good adaptation. Too much was skipped due to Kadokawa's avarice - only 10 episode.
I recommend those who didn't read it - start reading manga from beginning.
As of latest chapter Inari and Tanbabashi are finally a couple so this means time for Uka and Touka.

The first five minutes was beautiful :o

It was a good ending if you look at it as one big arc. The succeeding chapters are part of another big arc so it's useless to animate that as it's not even finished yet. So the OVA will either be a chapter that was skipped that's originally part of this arc (chapter 1-25 iirc) or a chapter just to introduce the next big arc :3

There are no proper confessions because not even the source has that yet...well there's one in the last published chapter but even that can still be interrupted. All this season did was establish the official pairings. The second (if there will be one) will focus on how it'll develop.
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness."

"May those who defy their fate be granted glory."
