History Literature / BritsuneGardenSeries

* CatSmile: [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Every. Single. Gijinka.]]
* CuteLittleFangs: The gijinka characters all have this to compliment their [[CatSmile Cat Smiles]].

* AnimalMotifs: [[FantasticFoxes Foxes]], [[NationalAnimalStereotypes foxes]], [[RuleOfThree and more foxes]]. Unlike in real life, the setting has the fox (as well as the [[AsianFoxSpirit Kitsune]] itself) as its animal of symbolism rather than the lion. This is possibly due to the "Kami-Shinjin Restoration", a cultural phenomenon that is said to "easternize" the UK many centuries ago by introducing Japanese culture and merging it with the old British culture. Not to mention fox tails are part of the Reiwa-Windsor family crest. Not to mention foxes are one of the animals often associated with both the UK and Japan. Did we mention they have foxes?

* FantasticFoxes:
** Vulpine {{Youkai}} have especially occurring roles in this series.
** Britsunes are clever, colourful vulpines who are able to use magic and do occult practices within nature.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: More of a popular figure rather than a celebrity, but Lilie's design, most notably her silver hair curls and the style of clothes she generally wears, are reminiscent of [[UsefulNotes/HMTheQueen Queen Elizabeth II]]. It doesn't help that she's an anthro ''corgi''-fox mix.

* MythicalMotifs:
** The British monarchy has the {{Kitsune}} representing it instead of a lion.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: According to the author, there are over 50 Igiriko characters so far.

* MulticolouredHair: Some Igiriko have manes that have more than one colour.

This series started in June 2019 by an American hobbyist author and artist called Corgipon (she is even one of the Tropers). However, its first novel started much later in the year and eventually well into 2020.

* PowerTrio: The main gijinka characters often consist of Malorie, Hana, and Lilie.

* {{Expy}}: All the Reiwa-Windsors are this in a way. For example, Queen Lilie is clearly inspired by Elizabeth II, though she has features that contrast from the real Queen, and Malorie is inspired by three royals: Prince William, George, and Charlotte, but her personality and appearance resembles more of the author.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: More of a popular figure rather than a celebrity, but Lilie's design, most notably her silver hair curls and the style of clothes she generally wears, are reminiscent of [[UsefulNotes/HMTheQueen Queen Elizabeth II]]. It doesn't help that she's an anthro ''corgi''-fox mix.

* HighPriest: The ''de facto'' leader of the Einguro (Anglo) Kami-Shinjin branch (basically the Church of England but instead related to UsefulNotes/{{Shinto}}), the High Priest/Priestess, with the current one being a vulpine gijinka by the name of Hisako Kurosawa.

** To UsefulNotes/TheBritishRoyalFamily, of course. The author is said to be an avid fan of the Queen so she designed Lilie to where she would be inspired by her. No wonder the royal family are also known as the Reiwa-''Windsors''.

** Britsunes' and Sylvaninus' eggs are generally colourful, with Britsune eggs being pale with vibrant speckles and Sylvaninu eggs being gradient with same speckles. [[Toys/{{Hatchimals}} Do they seem familiar]]?[[note]]Though WordOfGod said that she doesn't like the toyline as much because she finds it "kind of nonsense", she said that there are some aspects that she genuinely liked.[[/note]]

* ShrinesAndTemples: Instead of churches, the UK has shrines dedicated to certain Kami. Even Westminster Abbey has changed to Westminster ''Shrine'', taking on more of a Shinto-style motif and a big red torii at the entrance!

* CuteLittleFangs: The gijinka characters all have this.

* FictionalHoliday: Although this story takes place in a dimension almost identical to the real world, that world indeed has different traditions and holidays aside from the real-world Japanese holidays. Many of them are analogous to real-world counterparts, while others are completely original. Most original holidays end with "matsuri" (meaning "festival" in Japanese), though they sometimes end with "no Matsuri" instead. Valentine's Day and White Day are borrowed over, however.
