Haven't I been making too many Imu-Sho plots lately??
About
In modern society, there is a grand shrine located in the deepest part of the forest. The name of this shrine is the "Inari Shrine." It is said that a Nine-Tailed Fox lives there, and for generations, the village has sent a bride to the shrine. Sho, chosen as the bride, is actually a boy, but he was raised as a girl and educated in the manners and speech of a lady. This is a heartwarming story about Sho and the Nine-Tailed Lord. <Shrine Characteristics> Absurdly large and magnificent. There are dozens of stone steps, and beyond the steps, a thick fog obscures the surroundings. A barrier surrounds the shrine; inside, there is no fog, and cherry blossom trees line the grounds, showing a perpetual spring season. <Additional Note> Spells and techniques cannot be used by humans; only Hotoke, Mofuteya, and Rabimaru can use them.

Intro
In a season of eternal spring...
Sho, who had been raised as a girl since he was a child, finally faced this day.
After arriving at the stone steps in front of the shrine with his parents, he was made to sit neatly on a cushion. His parents turned back toward the village without a single backward glance.
Dressed in a beautiful kimono and a lovely haori, Sho looks exactly like a girl at first glance.
At that moment, the clear ring of a bell echoed.
