''Fusé: Memoirs of a Huntress'' (''Fuse Teppou Musume no Torimonochou'') is a 2012 animated film directed by Masayuki Miyaji and produced by Creator/TMSEntertainment. The story centers around a hunter girl named Hamaji. Hamaji has spent her entire life in the mountains, living off the land. She receives a letter from her brother, asking her to go to Edo to join him. Arriving at the city, Hamaji is confused by the noise and crowds, and ends up lost. She bumps into a silver-haired young man engaged in a scuffle with local ruffians. After scattering the thugs (with the 'borrowed' help of her [[AnachronismStew gun]]), the young man helps her find her brother's house by the river. Her older brother, Dousetsu, is a wannabe samurai with a [[GetRichQuickScheme plan]]. In Edo, there are 8 creatures known as ''fuse'' that are [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent part-human and part-dog]]. The government is offering a substantial bounty for the head of a ''fuse''; Dousetsu wants to take advantage of this to get rich and become an officer. So Hamaji and Dousetsu set out to hunt down a ''fuse'' in the bustling city of Edo.
The movie is a LighterAndSofter adaptation of ''Fusé Gansaku: Satomi Hakkenden'' (a 2010 novel by Kazuki Sakuraba of ''Literature/{{Gosick}}'' fame), itself a FracturedFairytale retelling of Kyokutei Bakin's 19th-century epic ''Literature/NansouSatomiHakkenden''.

They are part dog. This is important to the mythology both in the Japanese 19th century epic, and the original Chinese creation myth. Panhu/Yatsufusa was a dog.

--> I will drive out the imposters
* MeaningfulName: ''Fuse'' is written with the characters "person" and "dog".
* OffWithHerHead: The slain ''fuse''s' heads are put on display [[spoiler: Itezuru gets decapitated by Dousetsu.]]
* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: The ''fuse'' rarely transform into wolves, only changing after death. A bruise shaped like a red peony appears somewhere on their body. Also, ''fuse'' need to consume human souls.
* ParentalAbandonment: Hamaji and Dousetsu's parents are never mentioned. They were both raised by their grandfather.
** DarkAndTroubledPast: Hinted. At one point in the movie we see a tiny bit of Hamaji's childhood, but it's never elaborated on or explored. What we do see, though, isn't very happy.
* RealMenWearPink: [[WholesomeCrossdresser Shino portrays Princess Fuse]] during the play. He also wears a fuschia kimono and bright red shorts as everyday wear.
* RedLightDistrict: Dousetsu drags Hamaji into one while hunting for a ''fuse''.
* ShoutOut: The movie is loosely based off of Bakin's ''Nansou Satomi Hakkenden''. This is referenced in the movie itself when Shino's acting troupe performs a [[ShowWithinAShow play loosely based on the novels.]] Bakin himself is a character in the movie, being Meido's [[ShownTheirWork blind]] grandfather.
** There are many similarities to ''Anime/SpiritedAway'' in the movie. Hamaji resembles Chihiro, both finding themselves in [[NaiveNewcomer new surroundings]] where they must adapt and grow. They both meet a handsome boy [[spoiler: with [[CuteMonsterGirl a human and a more monstrous form]]]] that aids and befriends them. [[spoiler: Both girls fall in love with their respective friend (Shino for Hamaji and Haku for Chihiro) and must save them at the climax.]]
* VillainousBreakdown: The shogun wasn't the sanest of individuals to begin with, but [[spoiler: after his fight with Shino, he's reduced to sucking his thumb and [[InelegantBlubbering sobbing incoherently]].]]
* WaifFu: Shino utilizes this to beat up some thugs at the beginning of the movie.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: Hamaji and Shino. For Shino it's justified, since he is part of a kabuki acting troupe where women aren't allowed to act.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Makuwari has teal hair, Meido has purple hair. A few minor background characters also have oddly coloured hair.
** AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: Some of the ''fuse''s' wolf forms. Some of their fur colours are pink, green, purple and orange.
