The Eccentric Family
On Tokyo MX
A whimsical, warmly drawn slice-of-life comedy about a family of shapeshifting tanuki navigating Kyoto's supernatural underbelly with humor, affection, and underlying melancholy.
In Kyoto, humans and supernatural creatures live side-by-side. Soichiro Shimogamo used to be the head of tanuki society, but without warning one day he was made into tanuki stew, and no one knows how it happened. He left four sons behind who all live happily with their mother. What does fate have in store for this strongly bonded family?!
