Touka?!
You stay away from her!
T-Touka! You can see Lady Uka?
And how long have you been able to see her, huh?
Only since the other day!
Ow, ow! Let go!
My, my.
I had been planning to sacrifice Inari's soul to Great Amaterasu
before your guardian mystic's spirit awoke, but...
Very well. Awaken, Fushimi Touka—
that is, if you value your sister's life!
I see you've shown your true colors, you shapeshiftin' fox!
I-I can't move!
This is a String Shield!
String Shield
My goodness, how terrifying!
Sorry. He tends to let his imagination run away with him.
Consider yourself spared. For now.
And what was that about my imagination? Take that back!
What did I ever do to him?
Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha
nanige naku tsuita tameiki wa
I sighed involuntarily
Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha
takai takai sora no mukou ni
and that little bit of sadness
habataite kietetta
flew with the birds to vanish in the distance
guuzen no misu mo waratte shake hands
We committed our share of faux-pas, then shook hands
sonna fuu ni otona ni wa narenakatta keredo
That didn't really turn us into adults,
ima wa sukoshi wakaru yo
but now I understand
akogareta dareka no kage wo nazoru dake ja
that just imitating those you admire
kimi ni todokanai ne
is not enough to reach you
nee itsuka tsutaeru yo
One day I'll tell you of my feelings
dakishimeta negaigoto kimi ni mitsukaranai you ni
I didn't want you to know of my wishes,
watashi no koe ni tokasu
so I lowered my voice
kamisama ni sasayaita
and whispered to the gods
mainichi ni koi shiteru kono ki mo ne tayasanaide
Every day I feel the love inside my heart and hope I won't faint
somatta hoo wo naderu kaze
The wind turns my cheeks red
itsu made mo tonari de waratteite
Please keep smiling next to me
Today sure turned out well, didn't it?
Y'know, I think this thing really is working!
Thanks again!
I'll take good care of it!
You were over the moon!
I hate bein' so dumb.
And I hate how I'm always gettin' in everyone's way.
With Lady Uka's power, I can take on someone else's appearance...
but that doesn't change who I am.
And that means...
Thank you.
Hey, Kon?
Yes?
I hope one day they'll be thankin' me for something I did all on my own.
Sure!
Say, who would have thought Master Touka could see the likes of us?
Right? But I'm wondering...
Why did he get so angry at Lady Uka?
I wanna go to the shrine!
The Inari shrine!
Sorry, Touka, but could you take her?
Yeah, yeah.
Inari?
Hey, Inari!
Touka!
You can't just run off like that, Ina—
Look, Touka! A kitty cat!
Wh-What...
It's not safe to be out this late.
T-Time to go home, Inari!
That boy... could see me.
He certainly has grown.
Th-This divine spirit... Could it be...?
Brother, Annoying, Smothering
Maybe I shouldn't have had that third glass of milk at breakfast.
Fushimi Inari?
Sorry, but who might you be? I'm kind of—
Show me how you use the power of the gods to transform.
Huh?
Wait! This isn't how our first meeting is supposed to go!
Just hear me out!
Sorry! Maybe later!
Hey! Aren't you a guy?
A hot guy, but still!
A horrible hot guy!
Fushimi Inari... you little...
Ah! That's much bett—
Huh?
Well? How does it feel to be the one transformed into?
What?
Inari!
What're you doing?
Coming!
The teacher's already in the classroom!
Wai—
Maru... That's not...
Sorry!
M-Miss Inari?!
Don't you recognize me?
Y-You're...
He transformed into me, and now he's talkin' to Kon.
That imposter must have some divine power of his own.
I gotta talk to Lady Uka about this... No, I'll figure something out!
C'mon, Inari, this is your time to shine!
Inari, konkon!
Change into the vice-principal!
Fushimi Inari, may I have a word with you?
So what's your game, huh?
Er, ah, Miss Inari?
You really want to know?
Um, could the two of you—
Inari!
We've got gym next! Hurry up!
Okay!
Gym?
C'mon, get changed!
Get... changed?
Get changed!
Right! I gotta strip down and get changed in the girls' locker room!
Wait just a second!
Girls' Locker Room
Sir!
This is the girls' locker room!
You make me sick!
B-But it's me! Sorry, everyone...
Huh?
Girls these days...
Shorts on then skirt off
They don't let their guard down, even when there are no boys around.
Shorts on then skirt off
Gym top goes under blouse
Shorts on then skirt off
Gym top goes under blouse
Shorts on then skirt off
Gym top goes under blouse
Shorts on then skirt off
Gym top goes under blouse
Shorts on then skirt off
Gym top goes under blouse
Here goes!
What's gotten into you all of a sudden, Inari?
I can't believe no one's noticed that's not the real me!
Are you all right?
It wouldn't do for a fine young lady like you to hurt herself.
Th-Thanks...
Is she blushing?
To the infirmary! Raven-haired, white-coated, bespectacled beauties!
Now wait just one second!
You white-coated stunner, you!
Why is everyone blushing?!
That English teacher sure is a looker! What a body!
That's enough!
I can't take this anymore!
Hi, Touka
Good job making it
through midterms!!!
Have some rice balls.
Love, Mom
A necromancer in the service of a malign wizard
changed the holy chevalier into the two-headed dog Oranthrus...
A mouse?
What's goin' on? Who are you?!
I simply appeared before you in a form you could more easily identify with.
I am the elder brother of Uka-no-Mitama: Ootoshi-no-Kami!
A god of agriculture, just like her!
A-A god?
Lady Uka's brother?
I was sent on a rather dull errand, and along the way,
I thought I might like to meet the hateful human who stole my sister's divine power.
But...
After all,
my sister has always been the cutest thing in the whole, wide world!
You're the best, big bro!
To be separated is unbearable!
I remember them all too well...
He's on a roll.
Those days I spent at home with Uka!
Women
Bath
Uka...
Medicine
Shall we wash each other's backs?
Uka's Room
Let us sleep together, Uka!
Uka's Room
But perhaps she is overwhelmed by my love for her.
Don't come
looking for me.
Uka.
She doesn't visit the Celestial Plains as much as she used to.
And to top it off...
Master Ootoshi is not permitted on the premises!
By order of Lady Uka.
The love of two siblings, torn apart...
Th-This guy makes my brother look like a saint!
Then what?
I was trying to escape him when I somehow wound up here.
What?
M-My apologies. Inari's scent must have led me here.
Why don't you just talk to him?
Impossible! My brother twists my words to suit his intentions.
I don't know much about you,
and from what little I do know, I don't much care.
Just get out before I get mad!
Oh... Yes, of course. Pardon me.
Is this...
What? Just take a hike already!
Could I just...
What?
Uka's divine power, stolen by a human. It was front-page news.
I was flabbergasted.
Stolen?
Hey, Kouji, get a load of this!
Is that Fushimi's boyfriend?
Huh?
Well, gotta go.
Hey, hold up!
Yeah. Definitely her boyfriend.
He is not!
Th-This is my friend's brother!
Oh, is he?
C'mon, Hashimo, let's clean up.
Jeez!
Oh, dear! Will you look at the time? Let's be off.
Off? Where?
To the New Gods Welcoming Party, of course!
Huh?
Wow! The latest version sure has a lot of racers!
Enough.
Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha
WE/MAX
Hey, uh, Kon?
Is it just me, or is everyone kinda starin'?
Do I stand out that badly?
It is Lady Uka's divine power.
The gods find first-class divine power irresistible.
Is that so?
Are you the Miss Inari we've heard so much about?
Huh?
Come, come! Have some tea!
Yes, have some tea with me!
No, have some with me!
Wh-Where's Master Toshi?
Master Ootoshi? He's run off after some goddess or another.
Gah!
Just what might you be doing?
Are you low-ranking commoners teasing the new gods already?
Were you not aware that Great Amaterasu has been looking forward to doing that herself?
And do you not understand how she will punish you for robbing her of that moment?
We're so sorry!
Th-Thank you very much.
Lady Miya!
Kon! It's been so long!
It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Inari.
I am a goddess of commercial prosperity,
one of the Five Pillars of Inari.
I am known as Oomiya-no-Me-no-Kami.
Oomiya?
Please, just call me Miya!
Finally, a god who seems halfway sane!
Inari... Give it back... Divine power...
You can't sleep here! Wake up!
Oh! When did I—
What were you mumblin' about?
Huh?
"Inari, give it back"? Give what back?
What was all that?
I-I really must be going...
Wait!
What are you hidin'?
You shameless beast!
Whoa!
Look, I'm just puttin' this out there, but honestly? I hate you!
But if you just spill it already...
Hey, wait!
So Lady Uka isn't the only god at the Inari shrine.
I don't visit the human world that often myself.
Oh, so that's why Lady Uka is always at the shrine.
Some gods would say otherwise, but I think Uka was right to flee the Celestial Plains.
Huh?
Those gods who were swarming you earlier?
Uka's a first-class deity, so they were all over her as well.
Back then, god after god came seeking her hand in marriage, but all they really wanted was her status.
She had given up on love.
Miya, I've forgotten what it means to have fun.
I'm sorry to hear that, Uka.
Take this. A present from the human world.
Toys R Mine
What is it?
Angelina
Trendy Romance Game
A plaything much in demand among the women of the species.
Ah. I see the human world has many diversions.
"Rank, title... None of that means anything to me! I love you!"
"Do I look like a gold digger? The only thing I'm after is you!"
"The only woman who's shown me true love... is you."
A-Are there many such gentlemen in the human world?!
Uka's been a prisoner of the 2D world ever since.
Touka, take these to the shrine, would you?
It's a little thank-you present to the gods for taking care of Inari.
Huh? Why do I have to...
I'll be back later.
See you!
New Gods Welcoming Party
Northeast Hawk Hall
Little Miss Inari, won't you perform a miracle for us?
A miracle?!
All the new gods do one.
C'mon, put that first-class power of Lady Uka's into action!
But all I can do is transform.
Transform? You can transform?
That's first-class, all right!
What's with you, anyway?
"First-class" this and "first-class" that!
Don't you ever think about Lady Uka as a person?
Idiots!
Miss Inari, are you all right?
I don't want to be here.
This must be how Lady Uka felt.
L-Let's just take a step back and relax, okay?
Of course! Why don't you transform for us?
But who should she become?
I know! Transform into Lady Uka!
Ooh, good one! U-ka! U-ka!
U-ka! U-ka! U-ka! U-ka! U-ka! U-ka!
That's enough!
If I transform, will that shut you up?
Inari, konkon!
Lady Uka!
What in the world happened?
Hey! What's going on? Are you all—
Inari...
Wh-What...
Let us become one!
Wait, me? Is this that kind of scenario?
I barely know her, and yet she's throwin' herself at me!
Hurry... My... divine spirit...
Divine spirit?
K-Konkon!
Wh-What tremendous power!
And what do you think you're doing?
G-Great Amaterasu!
Be still!
Miss Inari!
Hey! What was that all about?!
You shameless beast!
What?!
Silence in the Infirmary
Hmph! Beginners shouldn't use their powers all willy-nilly.
Silence in the Infirmary
I'm the only one who can stop first-class power when it goes out of control.
Silence in the Infirmary
I'm sorry.
Did you figure out a way to return that divine power to Uka?
Oh, that?
No.
I've been looking into it, but so far, nothing.
I'm sure it's all going to work out just fine.
We just need Inari to take out her divine power like Uka did, right?
So once the power is stabilized in Inari, Uka can take it back.
Hmm. Yeah, I don't know.
It's not that simple.
See, the thing is...
Great Amaterasu?
Can I still be friends with Lady Uka even after my divine power is gone?
Nope. You'll go back to being a plain old human who can't see the gods or their envoys.
Just like how you were before you met Uka.
I see.
I'm so sorry. What a mortifying misunderstanding.
Eh, I said some pretty insensitive things myself this morning.
Look at you, apologizing! Good for you!
Then could I ask you for one tiny little favor?
What now?
C-Could I come by again to play more games?
I mean... that was the first time I'd ever done something I enjoyed with a human.
It was a lot of fun.
I-I'll think about it.
Thank you! Oh, and, uh...
One favor, you said!
Whatever you do, please don't tell Inari I collapsed.
Why not?
We're friends, and... I don't want her to worry.
If she knew it was because of that divine power I gave her, she wouldn't know what to do.
You're hiding something, aren't you?
How come Inari can see you now?
And what's this "divine power," anyway?
Has anything happened to her? Tell me!
I-I can't!
Whoa. Guess she really is a god after all.
Phew! I'm beat!
I've had enough of the Celestial Plains for now.
Once this divine power settles in,
will I be able to take it out and put it back in whenever, just like Lady Uka?
Yes.
And once I give it back, I'll have to say goodbye.
How can I tell when it's settled in?
First, we'll need to see how long you can hold onto a transformation.
Want to give it a try?
Inari, konkon!
Change into Mom!
Hey, Inari!
Huh?
watashi wa naze koko ni ite
Why am I here
