At first, I thought this manga was going to be just like any other forbidden love theme. I didn't think much of it when I saw summaries and pictures but when I actually started reading, I absolutely loved it. The reason is because it's not too romantic. Well, at least not yet. Anyways, I hate sappy, cheesy, overdone romance mangas that have no point whatsoever. I'm sure you do too. This manga isn't like that at all. In fact, Tomoe even hates (like really hates) her at the beginning but they start to soften up to each other even though Tomoe tries to hide it.

When I picked this up, I assumed that it would have the typical shojo manga storyline. I decided to read it to test it out. I know you're not supposed to judge a book by it's cover, but that's what I do; I don't read a manga series if I don't like the art AND the story. It has to be both. I absolutely loved this!
The story is very cute and I think I liked this almost as much as Vampire Game, which is the very first manga series I ever read. Nanami is very adorable (in a sense...) and the fact that she gets the shrine from a dude who's scared of dogs is hilarious, as I can relate to Mikage in such dislike. The character development is well paced, and the scene with the white snake is hilarious... (Sorry if this is too much of a spoiler ^_--)
If you are looking for manga that has a good plot, beautiful art, and foxes, check this out... ;) read more

Regular girl becomes homeless, gets taken and and involved with all sorts of supernatural things. Both are sweet, interesting stories with interesting characters
Similar art, style and story.
Both are close becuase:
They include romance
The main character Kyo(cat) and Tomoe (Fox) have a smililar personality
Same supernatural theme
The main character becomes homeless and involved with the supernatural world.
Kamisama Hajimemashita is more of a romantic comedy and Fruits Basket falls more into the tragedy genre, but both are very heartwarming.
genres: Sci-fi, romance, comedy
Forbidden love between the characters Tohru and Kyo (curse of the 12 zodiacs), Nanami and Tomoe (love between a yokai and a fox).

Similar characters, plot, character relations, etc :D
Kamisama Kiss just really reminded me of Inuyasha as I read deeper into the story :3
Canine demon boy (Inuyasha/Tomoe) has to partner with a schoolgirl (Kagome/Nanami). Inuyasha is a shounen manga (lots more action) whereas Kamisama is a shoujo manga (lots more romance), but the relationship between the two main characters are very similar.
Both have:
- Naive human heroine who has a special power and is on highschool and has the ability to travel to past.
- Main hero is a youkai with ears and white hair and at first fights a lot with the heroine but ends up protecting her later.
- KH is a shoujo/romance and Inuyasha is shonen but the relationship between Tomoe/Nanami and Kagome/Inuyasha is quite similar.
- The hero loved a human girl in his past and wanted to be human to be with her but she died.
- Yukiji (Tomoe´s former lover) resembles Kikyou (Inuyasha´s former lover) in looks and personality.
The relationship between the two main characters from KH (Nanami and Tomoe) reminds me of the relationship from InuYasha (Kagome and InuYasha). Especially at the beginning both Tomoe and InuYasha is a little bit more savage but become more tamed (?!) as the series progress.
There is a similar love triangle: Inuyasha/Tomoe had a lover in the past, Kikyou/Yukiji, who died young and reincarnated as Kagome/Nanami. (though the later is only implied)
