About

You can stream Gingitsune: Messenger Fox of the Gods (2013) on Crunchyroll Amazon Channel with a subscription.

Gintarou is a fox spirit that has been protecting the small Inari temple since the Edo era. Saeki Makoto's family possesses the power to see the gods' agent, but the ability is limited to one living relative at a time. When Makoto's mother passed away while she was still young, Makoto inherited the ability as the sole remaining family member. With the help of fox spirit's power, Makoto and Gintarou help the people of their community, in spite of their many differences.

While most fantasy anime lean into combat, this gentle series finds magic in the quiet, sacred connection between a young girl and an ancient fox spirit. It trades epic battles for cozy, supernatural moments that honor the stillness of a local shrine.
