Kitsune



Kitsune, or Fox demons in the English dub of the anime, are a race of yōkai which resemble foxes but are as intelligent as humans and are known to be mischievous tricksters. Kitsunes have the ability to perform certain magic, such as fire conjuring, size manipulation and most notably shape-shifting which allows them to take on the appearance of anyone or anything they choose by placing a leaf on their head. Kitsunes can either look like humans like Shippo or like actual foxes like Ippo.
