Cringe comment aside, Fox Mommy Waifu is up to my alley.
No, no. I definitely am not a fury!

And yet it still perfect for cooking. You can bake delicious Buns in oven with it. Or pancakes with syrup or cream.
Don't let somethings discourage you.

Touche, me like milk

I don't know how but I'm certain she's a deity of fertility and harvest

"She's got... Great tracts of land!"

On a side note, I'm very much of the belief that there is such a thing as "too big"

Back and shoulder pain sucks, I wonder if this new world has ibuprofen?

Chapters are normal, but the publisher spilts the too much.
On that note, it took so long to come out that I have no memory whatsover of this shrinem when did it appear the first time? I honesly cannot remember.

Her shrine appeared in Chapter 17 (Demon Territory Arc, before Kunai's fight with Belphegor (was that the name of father of that cute half-demon?)), right after Akane (one of Kunai's subordinates who fought with tonfas) hinted to him that she realized that he was the "god" of her world. Inside he met these children, and boy were wounded by demon lord with flying pumpkin and scythe, after which the child was healed and the demon lord was beaten. If anything, this kitsune, and

her sister, that was introduced in 18 or 19, i don't remember, chapter, both are kids of Dragon that ruled by their country

she has very large ears...

Those large ears are essential to the plot...

Oddly enough, that's precisely what fox deities are, in Japanese culture.

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

how does that happen though? I would get rabbits being a god of fertility with how they breed like roaches or cows or goats being related to gods of harvest. But foxes?

Grand Priestess has massive... eyebrows. Really like the design.

Thanks for the scanlation!

It's actually a sort of folklore garbling of the original belief. Originally (and still so, in actual Shinto) the fox isn't the god, but the god's assistant. The god/goddess Inari (Inari's gender varies by region) uses foxes as messengers and guardians of the harvest. But in folklore (and in manga and anime), the messenger and the god get confused, and you see Inari portrayed as a fox her/himself.

As for why Inari uses foxes as assistants, theories vary, but one theory I read was that foxes prey on the animals that tend to be threats to the crops, like deer, rabbits, rats, and such. Hence, 'guardians of the harvest'.

Sorry for the tl;dr. You just happened to ask a question that touched my weird hobby (studying mythology and folklore from various cultures.)
