This is the long awaited sequel to the best-selling comic novel, set in modern-day Kyoto and centering on the rivalry between two clans of tanuki raccoon dogs, which in Japanese folklore are endowed with the ability to transform themselves into anything, animate or inanimate, they wish. Also playing a prominent role are tengu?figures of legend who have humanoid bodies but with wings on their backs and very long noses protruding from their fierce red faces?whom the tanuki look up to as their mentors. Humans likewise hold the tengu in high regard, but their primary interest in tanuki is as the featured ingredient in a hot-pot feast. The three-way push and pull between tanuki, tengu, and humans forms the backbone of this ongoing saga.
