The final fox shrine that I should find on my first visit to Japan. This one is a side shrine of Ooshima Hachiman Jinja (大島八幡神社 "Ooshima Hachiman Shrine"). It's a good ending, with two caged life-sized stone foxes in front, and eight small-to-tiny porcelain foxes inside the shrine.
Fitting for an ending, this is also the southernmost fox shrine that I visited in the Radiant Metropolis (though I'm sure there are many more just waiting to be found).
