Given its importance to the series, the Pipe Fox spirit naturally appears in the xxxHolic anime as well (in both adorable forms), but again, no spoilers.

That said, the Pipe Fox spirit of xxxHolic takes on another form at times in the story (usually during especially serious situations).

This other form is not only more fox-like, but specifically seems to be based off the legendary 9-tailed fox (which you may have heard of). No spoilers, though.

At first appearance, the Pipe Fox spirit seems to be based off the Kuda-gitsune - youkai foxes often said to live in (or be contained in) the pipes of a bamboo flute.

Fans of the game #Ookami might recognize them as an important plot point, and a neat boss fight.

So far I've played through the 1st and 2nd level, I think? And it's been an interesting time.

The world and characters seem interesting, and the foxy companion adds a definite air of mystery to setting and where the plot may go.

Once I get back to it, I'd like to give a more detailed look at it.

Here's more of the character in question, from the game's official artwork:

Here's her default appearance in game, her stage appearance, and a compilation of her going hardcore in the Cinderella Grey manga, created by a fan for Imgur and Reddit (link in the alt text).

She just had a solo song come out "Inari no Hana" which is where I first found out about the character.

Not gonna lie; it /also/ goes kinda hard.

I'd heard of the Wizardry series before Daphne, but had never tried any of the games.

I picked up Daphne to check it out and... 25+ hours later? I think I'm PRETTY fond of its game-play (gatcha notwithstanding).

It makes me want to check out other games like it, so... Etrian Odyssey, anyone?

Wizardry Variants Daphne is free-to-play on PC and smartphone, but DOES use gatcha mechanics to let players acquire new characters like Yuzunamiki. You can use in-game currency or real-world currency.

The banner featuring Yuzunamiki is available for 24 more days as of this post, ending Nov. 30.
