A big shrine on the south side of Kandagawa (神田川 "God Field River"), the name of which hints that there once was a forest here where now only city remains. Again, despite this not having "Inari" in its name, the presence of a pair of fox guardians as well as the Inari emblem strongly suggests that this is an Inari shrine. Unusually, it is the left fox who features a kit here, bringing the vixen side count to 2:12.
