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.

The ending feels incomplete, I hope the few parts still get solved in the OVA, I mean ofc Inari can't see Uka anymore but does Touka not either?
No I believe Touka can still see her.

I'd like a S2 for this. :D

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.


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

6/10 Despite the seemingly low score, I think the series did well with what little it had to work with

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 ^^

So... is this gonna have one more episode or is this the end. Im asking because, according to Hummingbird, there are 11 episodes of this show.

Maybe it's referring to the OVA? Unless Hummingbird has a separate entry for that, then idk.

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.

10 eps are way to short for this beautiful plot and animation style. 26 eps would have been perfect, especially with the incoming spring season. so not 10/10 but 9/10. meeh T_T btw. Inaris voice actress did a fantastic job!

Wow really feels like this episode could have easily been shortened almost to almost half the length to add more. Most of it was flying to Uka and trying to open the boulder door.

But whatever. Besides that and Inari being really dumb at times, this was a really nice series. Relaxing, fun, reminds me that I should watch shows like this once in a while instead of always skipping them each season .-.

you joke as things Yuri, and Yuri animes like Sakura Trick are for male púlblico so in your world, that things are Yuri for women and queers.
I hate anime Yuri and most men also hate this business of Sanjou and Sumizome is for women, guarantee real man hates things Yuri.
Ai and Yuri are the worst kinds of anime.

Lol gotta agree with that, and I admit I was trying to skip the running to Uka part and then realized that I then skipped more than half of the episode...I swear this part didn't feel that long when I read the manga.

This is the best place to stop. There is more story to tell, but the next arc is still ongoing in the manga. They are probably going to put out a season 2 when it finishes. This is just what happens when you animate something that is still coming out with little source material. Hopefully they see that people would like the rest of the story animated once it finishes though!

They left a lot of things hanging... I'm assuming and hoping there'll be a second season to further explain and develop these issues?

Wished there was a Touka x Uka scene in this episode.

6.5/10. Nonetheless, a very relaxing anime to watch!

That was great, I really enjoyed the overall series. ^_^
But there is one place where it seemed to contradict itself.
Based on events that occurred during the series, I see no reason why Inari can't see Uka, as other gods (some lesser) have made themselves appear in front of multiple humans; Ootoshi for example actually took on a human form, and was mistaken for Inari's boyfriend, so why couldn't Uka do the same?
Maybe the manga explains the reason why, I'll probably read it.
Anyway, I'd love to see it continued into a second season. ^_^
