Japanese word for fox. Foxes are a common subject of Japanese folklore. Stories depict them as intelligent beings and as possessing magical abilities that increase with their age and wisdom.

In the comic Usagi Yojimbo, Kitsune is a street performer by day, and master thief by night—or day as the case may be. An anthropomorphic fox, she is cunning, quick, agile, and if needed is handy with a sword, but is no master swordswoman and would likely lose in a fight with a real warrior. She considers herself a noble thief, and only steals from people who can afford it, or people who deserve it; she would never steal from the poor, and not just because they have nothing worth stealing, but because she was once poor herself.
