54 ~ Shusse Inari

 

Japanese Name:  出世稲荷
Romanized Reading: Shusse Inari
English Translation: Success in Life Inari
Size: Tiny Side Shrine (of Anamori Inari Jinja)
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 24
First Visit: 1-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Ota
Address: 5 Chome-2-7 Haneda, Ota City, Tokyo 144-0043

The middle of the three shrines to the right of the Torii tunnel, and the final foxy side shrine of Anamori Inari Jinja. Featuring "only" 24 foxes, that's still more than the number of foxes I should see on most other days. To the right of that shrine, you can see a board of Ema. Those are prayer plaques that you can purchase at the shrine to write a wish on and hang it up for the gods to read. Once the writing fades, so it is said, the deity has read your wish, and it will be granted. Sorta like a kanban board for gods.
