Say hello to Tamamo, a transfer student who is a bit different than other girls.
I could finally read this one! I have been eyeing this one for a while, but never had the chance to actually try it out.
Tamamo? She is actually an Inari from a shrine, she wanted to go to school so badly (no clue why anyone would go to school that desperately, but oh well) that she asks the gods if she could go. She has to promise all sorts of things, but she is allowed to go.
Well, I say transform... and for adults (most of them) and machines (cellphones) she looks indeed human... to the rest of the school however she looks like a foxgirl. :P Yep, she is terrible at it. And she never notices, well, yet, maybe in later volumes she does notice and gets flustered (or change into a statue, yes, that happens).
What happens next is that she is getting offers left and right, people are praying to her (though she doesn't notice), if someone wrongs her they get cursed (like the annoying teacher who keeps eating Tamamo's food). Though I have to say that the last thing? She doesn't know she is doing it. This in contrast to her older sister Tenko. Who knows she has powers and uses them to the fullest. :P
The classroom even gets called a shrine due to Tamamo. Yep. Tamamo is very popular with everyone (some people more than others though).
I love how a certain group was trying to make pictures of Tamamo as a foxgirl, but they never get it right (again, the whole machines will show Tamamo as a girl thing). But they never give up. Which is quite dedicated, most people would just give up, but these guys just keep on trying in various ways.
It was also oh so much fun to see Tamamo discover the human world (food, busses, anything really).
Oh, and how she became friends with two girls (well, one specifically) had me in stitches. Poor girl.
The art is pretty good, I really like how Tamamo was drawn (and how she looked as human girl).
I can't wait for the next volume. Hopefully it will be just as fun as this first volume was. Oh, and of course I would recommend this manga to everyone.

Double entendres have never been this cute before
Are you looking for a Slice of Life 4koma style manga with a twist? How about a little something extra to learn about on many of the pages whether about real life or insights from the characters? Well I got a treat for you because I found your oddly specific requirements in this manga. :)
You see...Tamamo-chan is literally a fox and not just a fox but she is one of the four divine fox statues from the the Fushimi Inari Shrine and using her power of transformation she has taken on the form of a student and decides to try out school life for herself. However even though she appears perfectly human on camera and a majority of the adults see her as a human the majority of students she attends school with can see Tamamo as a cute anthropomorphized fox girl who also is divine. Needless to say being a messenger to a bountiful goddess has its perks when you are friends with them. :)
Certainly having been a statue (she was the one that held a key if you want to look it up) Tamamo is not the most down to Earth gal but thanks to her best friends Nakki and Mikki her life is never boring as she learns new things all the time while they and their classmates do their best to not tell her that her disguise is not quite as efficient as she thinks it is. If you get a chance to read this too I hope you can learn some new things too and be swept up in the fox fever. :)
I forgot to mention something else I liked when reading this manga when I first reviewed it. Unlike other titles I have read in the past for kindle this is the first one I noticed they actually have the back cover at the end of the volume. Some may consider the back of the manga to not be of any particular loss but I find that is usually where you see the plot of the volume, age appropriate ratings, and occasionally additional art not found in the book. I hope other manga companies will take note of this opinion of mine that the kindle books do not need two front covers but rather both a front and back cover so we do not miss out any any back cover shenanigans.

Tamamo is a guardian spirit at the Inari Grand Shrine at Kyoto who suddenly decides she wants to attend high school. Children can see her in her true form as can be seen on the cover, including the students at the high school she attends. From there you've got a cute low-key comedy about Tamamo's daily life with her friends at school, with occasional stories featuring Tamamo's sister Tenko, or Inari Okami, the head goddess of the shrine.
The art in this manga isn't very impressive, reminding me of web comics by young, less experienced artists. The storytelling is quite cute, though. The best thing about it, in my opinion, are the sidebars on most of the pages, with their factoids about Japanese shrines and culture that seem to reflect the author's own enthusiasm for the subject matter of the story, and little asides from the point of view of Tamamo.
I visited the Inari Shrine on a trip to Japan a number of years ago, and this manga made me want to go back and greet the statues! :)

Very cute ! A lovely fox protagonist, and many humorous scenes. Perfect for fans of yōkaï and japanese folklore. 🦊✨🇯🇵

The plot was fine and cute, and the art was okay. Overall, there's not too much to say about this one for me. It didn't stand out in many ways -- although I thought all of the classmates earnestly giving offerings and praying to Tamamo was highkey so cute -- but it wasn't bad either.
I liked the 4-koma format, but what I really disliked about this book was that every single page had side translation notes and a subtitle/caption at the bottom of the page. It made every page feel really crowded and distracted me from reading the 4-koma itself. The thing I like about this format is that it's perfect for relatively simple stories, where there's a setup and punchline in a simple four-panel-per-page layout. But when you crowd the page with all these notes on the bottom and side, it messes up my flow, I guess. A joke isn't funny if you have to explain a bunch of things and add a ton of context and commentary...
I wish that all the translation and cultural notes had been properly put at the end of the volume like most manga, instead of on the side of every single page and at the end of each chapter. Sometimes this type of thing can really bug me!

OMG this is so adorable! And completely innocent!
Cuteness overload! Ok so we have our cute little fox-girl, Tamamo. She's actually a messenger fox for the goddess of an important shrine. However, after centuries of overlooking the entrance to the shrine,, she wants to turn into a human girl, and go to high school! I know, I know, you are thinking this is all sorts of pervertedness, naughty, furry? NO, NO and NO! This fox girl, and the story, are cute, innocent, and pure. Just a friendly teen girl who loves to have fun and eat lots of good food. There is absolutely NOTHING perverse to this. Sure, she's kinda cute, as are her two human bffs, Nakki and Mikki, and yes, both Tamamo & Mikki definitely have the boing going on, but I can't express just how innocent, pure, & wholesome this story and the characters are. So, so cute! Now Mikki, she likes to eat, too, and she's a curvy girl, but I think she's kinda cute! Definitely the kind of girl I liked in high school. This is such a fun little story, 4 panel style. Every page has a sidebar by Tamamo, explaining what various Japanese words mean. I think the worst thing that happens is when Miura-Sensei steals Tamamo's older sister's lunch, and she curses him with sudden gastrointestinal distress! But it's funny and cute, not gross or sleazy. Reading through this, I thought repeatedly, "The Mangaka is going to great lengths to make Tamamo and her friends cute, in innocent ways, but NOT sexy NOR arousing". This is not a furry story!!! Just plain fun. I feel like Reiko-Sensei, in that I just want to hug Tamamo, stroke her tail, and rub her fur. She's just so darn CUTE!!! I bought this volume on a lark, and I'm glad I did. So much fun. I eagerly await the next volume.

At first I’m like okay, this is fine. I’m curious to see how this will go. Then, it got repetitive and I’m like well I want to see if they switch up the formulaic chapters. But, then we get to very questionable characters. In particular, one character who gathers the fur left behind by Tamamo in order to make a Tamamo-chan fur mask to become her. We’ve crossed the line of weird. I’m tapping out.
January 20, 2021
Tamamo is a shrine guardian going to human school. Unfortunately for her, she has grossly overestimated her ability to disguise her fox-self as a human and all her classmates know what she is (but are too polite to tell her). Can she have a happy high school life or is she inari over her head?
This turned out to be a pretty fun little 4-koma (4-kami?) manga. The central premise is fairly charming, as is our protagonist, who veers a lot closer to a big happy dog (the word pupper IS used in this book) than a being of mystical powers. It’s a low-key story of friendship and acceptance and a great read when you just want something goofy to lift your spirits.
This is definitely a furry otaku’s dreams writ large, as Tamamo and, later on, some brethren, floof all over the page. Still, it’s pretty cute, and you can’t fault the gusto with which Tamamo comes at the joys of the human world. There isn’t a mean bone in this book’s body.
Good running gags are hard to pull off, but, minus the very annoying teacher one, this sets up a bunch that really made me laugh. The constantly thwarted photography club, the souvenir hungry okami-sama, Tomamo’s statuary defence mechanism, the way Tamamo’s class is slowly being turned into a shrine. It’s a robust list and they’re not so overused this early on that they become stale.
It starts off okay, if a little sluggish, but keeps getting better and better. I was more than a little concerned it didn’t have what it took during the first parts - it was okay at best, somewhat dull at times. However, once Tamamo’s friends Nakki and Mikki are more firmly established and the trio heads to Tokyo Tower (the shrine knowledge gag here might be the funniest in the book - it’s really dumb-funny) it seriously kicks off.
The tower section is a delight and it’s followed by equally strong arcs within the school clubs, another with a replacement Tamamo (that fools absolutely no one), and a beach visit where Tamamo floating in an inner tube wreaks havoc on the local fauna. The author really blends the mundanity of high school and our star’s religious background to good effect - the addition of a bit of the mystical gives it just that little extra punch.
3.5 stars - I’m iffy on this deserving a full 4, but while it might be slight it genuinely made me feel happier while I read it, so... sentimentality wins every time. Once this gets going it becomes a real hoot and I’m looking forward to seeing if it maintains that level going forward. Definite keeper.

To be honest not really my cup of tea the air it was OK the story was OK though I kind of a times got a bit repetitive I had a hard time getting into this one I’m not really sure if I’m gonna read the rest of them I think there’s probably an audience out there for it but I just wasn’t for me.

This review will be for the whole series; read at your own risk!
Read 3 volumes
Super cute start to a hilarious series about a shrine fox masquerading as a high school girl! Tamamo is so innocent and cute, it’s hard not to love her like everyone else! It’s an episodic slice of life style that I think has the potential to become a classic like Azumanga Daioh or Nichijou.
Edit 10/7/21: A lot of the same jokes are being made and it lessened my enjoyment of volume 3. There's a few interesting things that happened but a lot felt redundant. I still have hope for the series.

Tamamo-chan may only really have one joke, but it's a good one - watching everyone scramble to keep her not-too-hidden secret is a lot of fun. It's more a 3 than a 4 for me because of two of the teachers (as someone who used to regularly bring lunch for students who otherwise wouldn't have eaten, that guy who eats his students' lunches really rubs me the wrong way) and a couple of fat "jokes" in the beach chapters, but those aside, it really is light, fluffy fun.
January 6, 2026
Tamamo-chan’s a Fox! is a cute and charming story about a shrine fox statue who takes the form of a human girl in order to live out a normal teen life in high school. However, she is unaware to the fact that her disguise does not fool most of the students and some adults. They see her as an anthropomorphic fox girl. So a lot of the story revolves around jokes of Tamamo adjusting to high school / human life and other human characters treating her differently (e.g. wanting good fortunes, trying to take photos of her, trying to pet her fur, etc.).
While the jokes can be repetitive, the manga doesn’t really feel like it outstays its welcome in my opinion. The art is also really cute too especially with how Tamamo-chan is drawn. One critique is once they introduce her sister Tenko to the story, sometimes it can be hard to tell which character is which when they’re in the same panel.
Overall, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cute and silly slice of life story especially one with an anthro character.

I found Tamamo-chan’s a Fox Volume 1 to be extremely enjoyable. I don’t think it’ll ever get super plotty, but I do think there’s a strong chance that this series will remain incredibly charming. Tamamo is a fantastically hilarious lead, especially since she’s such a fish out of water. Additionally, it’s sweet watching her classmates look out for her, especially since they’re all too aware that Tamamo isn’t the high school girl she appears to be.
Manga fans looking for a light, comedic, slice of life series about a supernatural being will find Tamamo-chan’s a Fox Volume 1 a pretty solid read. It’s cute, it’s charming, and honestly, Tamamo-chan is the best fox girl. I know I certainly enjoyed my read. In fact, I can’t wait to review the next volume!

Love this manga with all my heart!! it's so cute and wholesome. If you're looking for a lighthearted fluffy & cute short manga read this is it.
It's only 6 volumes full of cute stuff funny jokes, friendship, and facts about ancient Japan.
It's also about friends having fun in Tokyo they go shopping and do fun activities etc.
synopsis:
It's got a fun spinoff on shintoism as Tamamo is a fox spirit that guards a shrine in Kyoto dedicated to Inari Okami. She yearns for more she wants to experience human life and see the bigger world outside the shrine, and also go to high school.
The god grants her wish so she starts her happy school life.
Oh also I loved this first volume so much I bought the whole series, am currently on vol 3 it's still holding up and I never get tired of Tamamo and her friends adventures navigating high school life and doing fun activities.

A very furry slice-of-life. Chill and adorable. Great art, lots of mythology references, and cute foxgirls. If you're a slice-of-life fan in general, definitely pick this one up!
Plot: Fushimi Tamamo is a fox guardian spirit that guards the Inari Shrine in Kyoto but she has managed to talk her way into leaving the shrine for a bit to experience the modern world as a high school student. Her disguise is ALMOST perfect but the young-of-heart can see right through it. Thankfully, her classmates are determined to make Tamamo's time at school special. What follows is a very plot-light 4koma gag series with lots of "fish out of water" type scenarios.

Light and simple, but that's not always such a problem. I would always get my copy when I was feeling sad, and it provided a good escape for me. It's not only adorable and pleasant, but also, very educational on various Japanese topics, especially spiritual practices and yokai. I'd highly recommend it for someone into yokai such as myself, who hasn't already done all the research there is to do on kitsune.
4 stars instead of 5 because it is a bit shallow, so while it was good, it's not like I can say it totally blew my mind. That and there was a few teachers hitting on the kitsune that I could really do without.

Tamamo is a divine fox who has transformed into a human girl. Her disguise is not perfect as her classmates can she that she is a Fox-girl but adults don’t seem to notice. The volume is made up of short stories that run traditionally a page or 2 in mini adventures. The art is good but I think the short stories put Tamamo is many different situations but also slows down the potential progression of the characters and story. Fun quick read.
October 5, 2021
What I appreciate about Slice of Life mangas is how we can appreciate the little things in life; which is what I liked out of this one. I liked that a divine character just wanted to enjoy simple pleasures in life, and those around her wanting to respect that. Also liked the notes on the sides of the pages, even if they were a bit distracting.
October 16, 2022
This was such a cute manga, and it's my first one I've truly read. I loved how it gives you a little piece of information of Japan's culture. I hope this would become an anime. I have almost the whole set and I'm going to read them all.

It was cute and funny.

One of my favorite books of 2021! an unexpected find for me!

An unexpected feel-good read that is cute and charming. Also surprisingly insightful with plenty of fun facts on modern Japanese culture, food, and history.

Pass.

This just wasn't for me. I was bored. Just variations on basically three jokes.

Nice book, cute
Like all the small tidbits of information that the author kept in.
Can get repetitive with information that's already told and just didn't vibe with the book.

A very cute, lovable and funny experience all around. It won’t change your life but if you’re in it for a fun time this will surely entertain you in increasingly creative and endearing ways.

Some great slice-of-life comedy about a fox girl messenger of the gods wanting to have a high school life, but not being nearly as good at transformations as she thinks she is. The story consists of entertaining short skits of her daily life as a high schooler in Tokyo. It comes with plenty of footnotes about both foxes and Japanese culture (in particular towards religion). I just wish they were at the bottom of the page and not vertical at the side which is harder to read on a screen, but people with a physical copy or E-reader don't have that issue obviously. Wholesome fun, but no action or overarching plot.

Kiltti, mutta hieman (lue: pari sataa vuotta) ajastaan jäljessä oleva kettuhenki päättää kokeilla koulunkäyntiä lukiossa. Sääli, ettei tätä hyvän tuulen komediaa todennäköisesti tulla koskaan julkaisemaan suomeksi.
A kind, but slightly (read: a couple of centuries) behind-the-times fox spirit wants to try going to high school. A pity this feel-good comedy will most likely never see the light of day in english, much less in finnish.

Funny, cute, and fluffy!
This has got to be my favorite manga series. Ever! I wish to see more of her! Kind of like Azumanga Daioh; only the main protagonist is a fox! I learned so much about the four foxes in the Japanese culture, even the parts in this manga are funny. Gotta love Tamamo-Chan! Gotta love this manga!
