>"[Yasushi] Yamaguchi submitted an orange fox with stylish bangs and a distinct pair of tails, inspired by a mythical creature from Japanese folklore. According to legend, certain Japanese red foxes, or kitsune, magically grow an additional tail for every thousand years they have lived. Each tail provides unique powers, like the ability to create illusions, manifest in dreams, or rub two tails together and create fire. Though legend implies that kitsune are notorious tricksters, Yamaguchi's creation was much more domesticated" (Harris, 244).
