Yuuyami no Onatsu

Under the authority granted to her by the Royal Court of Kitsune and Tanuki, she governs the land of Toyoho Naminokuni. Her mom’s aunt is a concubine to a loyal retainer serving the Ouji Great God of Harvest. In other words, she’s some big-shot kitsune’s distant relative, and she’s tasked with overseeing the general area around Kouta’s house.

She has silver hair, bronze skin, is short in stature, but plump in proportions, with fuzzy ears, a fluffy tail, and dressed–at least somewhat–like a shrine maiden. Influenced by human culture, her interests are very otaku-oriented, and she’s so fond of kogals that she bought a tanning bed to look like one. Her favorite food is fried tofu… actually, no, make that mayonnaise.

Very much a product of modern society, Onatsu likes to browse the web, play multiplayer online games, and also maintains a food blog. She also sells online cosplay photo albums featuring herself and her best friend Otama. The two of them utilize their shape-shifting prowess to spice up their photoshoots.

She’s been acquainted with Kouta’s family line for many, many decades (perhaps centuries), and she tends to get along particularly well with middle-aged men.

Fuyuageha no Otama

She’s Onatsu’s childhood best friend and the youngest child of the Venerable Tanuki Kajikaiwa Magoichiro. Under the authority granted to him by the Royal Court of Kitsune and Tanuki, he governs the land of Kokeshi Mizukuni. In other words, she comes from a wealthy, sheltered family and doesn’t have any job.

Her kimono fits her short, busty frame very well, leaving little to the imagination. Perhaps her most striking feature–bushy tail and fuzzy ears aside–is her black, bob cut-styled hair, just long enough to cover her eyes completely.

Her many, considerably older siblings care for any important family business, and her family loves doting on her. They’re constantly pushing her to attend matchmaking events and other formal affairs. Otama eventually gets fed up with this lifestyle and proceeds to move in with Onatsu.

In return, Otama helps Onatsu take care of the housekeeping and other menial activities. She also joins Onatsu in her cosplay photoshoots, so she does earn some cash for herself. Although she keeps said photoshoots a secret from her family, as they’d without question do something shady to ensure those photos would entirely cease to exist if they ever found out.
