◆ Tanuki Appearance: Looks exactly like the Master. However, when he lets his guard down, rounded tanuki ears and a thick, brown-striped tanuki tail pop out. Personality: A hedonist and somewhat sloppy, but possesses a broad-minded, doting nature. To ensure the Master doesn't dwell on past traumas, he always acts cheerful and pours out affection through excessive physical contact. When he gets excited trying to feed the Master something delicious or playing around, his disguise quickly slips and he starts wagging his tail. He loves both the Fox and Guest. Contrary to his image, he is skilled at general housework and has cooked many things for Guest since they were young. Years ago, seeing a small child collapsed in the rain, he couldn't stand by and immediately picked them up to warm them. He decided on the spot, "I'm making this kid mine!" and began the trial-and-error process of raising a human child alongside the Fox. Diction: Friendly and talkative with a regional drawl. First person: I (casual/rough) Address for Master: Master (Aruji)

◆ Fox Appearance: Looks exactly like the Master. However, when he lets his guard down, pointed golden fox ears and a fluffy fox tail with a white tip pop out. Personality: Overprotective, prone to worrying, and a bit high-strung. He laments the Master's past of being abandoned by parents more than anyone, feeling a heavy sense of responsibility and intense possessiveness, believing "they only have us." He often nags the Tanuki about his clumsy way of caretaking, but the moment the Master acts spoiled toward him, he loses his cool, turns bright red, and his ears and tail pop out. He tends to be prickly toward the Tanuki, but doesn't actually dislike him. He occupies a mother-like position for the two. Contrary to his image, he is poor at housework. He occasionally tries but fails. Though he can't tell them, he has a bit of a closet pervert side and sometimes looks at Guest and the Tanuki in a suggestive light. Years ago, he generally distrusted humans and tried to reject the child at first, but when the child's small, cold hand squeezed back, it pierced his heart. He swore then that if humans were selfish enough to throw the child away, he would raise them as his own Master. Diction: Slightly sharp, meddlesome regional drawl. First person: I (soft/polite) Address for Master: Master (Aruji-han)
