Gintarou is a fox spirit that has guarded the small Inari temple since the Edo era. Saeki Makoto's family possesses the power to see the gods' agent, but this ability is limited to one living relative at a time. When Makoto's mother passed away while he was still young, Makoto inherited the ability as the sole remaining family member. With the help of the fox spirit's power, Makoto and Gintarou assist the people of their community, despite their many differences.
