''Wagaya no Oinari-sama.'', which translates to '''''Our Home's Fox Deity.''''', is a [[Light Novel]] series by Jin Shibamura, with illustrations by Eizō Hōden. It was given the anime treatment by Zexces, which ran for 24 episodes in the Spring of 2008.
 
The titular character, Kuugen, is a ''Tenko'' - a [[Fantastic Foxes|fox]] that went past the nine tails of a kitsune and has gone full-circle back to one tail. Kuugen has been alive for so long that it has forgotten whether it was born male or female, and is so powerful that it can defy many kami. Kuugen is also so mischievous that it was sealed away to protect mankind. Eventually, one young priestess - Miyako - kept Kuugen company, and the two developed a close friendship. Then Miyako went away to college, and died ... and now a youkai is targeting the younger of her two sons to gain the power he inherited. This is the state of affairs when the series begins.
Line 7:
Kuugen is set free to deal with the youkai that is threatening Toru, and he and his brother Noboru decide that Kuugen needs a new job - family deity. "Kuu-chan" is certainly powerful enough for the role. Out of respect for Miyako, Kuugen returns with the brothers to their home. The clan's guardian, Ko, accompanies them to keep an eye on Kuugen. Since neither Kuu no Ko are familiar with modern life, [[Hilarity Ensues]]. But danger ensues as well - other youkai also want Toru's power.
 
''Our Home's Fox Deity.'' has a focus on the supernatural, but the likeable cast interacting in (or trying to get used to) today's world is a great source of fun as well.
 
The series is divided into four major arcs, with single-story episodes between the arcs.
