Throughout time, supernatural, shapeshifting tanuki loved playing tricks on humankind. One plucky tanuki, Mameda, is no different. But there's one big problem. She wasn’t born in the days of yore — she was born in modern, more cynical times! How can she fulfill her mischievous tanuki destiny when supernatural hijinks are a thing of the past? She finds an angle when she meets Bunko, a master of the Japanese art of rakugo, which uses storytelling to beguile its audience. Mameda is determined to use rakugo to cast a spell on humanity, but first this tanuki trickster must convince the no-nonsense Bunko to take her on as an apprentice.

Where it came from
My Master Has No Tail, released as a television anime series in 2022, is based on the manga series by TNSK. The narrative follows Mameda, a tanuki who disguises herself as a human in Taisho-era Osaka to learn the art of rakugo from a master named Bunko. The series serves as an exploration of traditional Japanese storytelling, blending folklore with the historical reality of the early 20th-century entertainment scene.
Produced by Liden Films and distributed by Pony Canyon, the series emphasizes the intricacies of rakugo, a demanding form of solo performance that requires immense vocal and physical control. The character design stays faithful to TNSK's original aesthetic, aiming to capture the juxtaposition between the magical nature of tanuki mythology and the grounded, human-centric world of classic performance arts. Upon release, the series was noted for its focus on character growth and its specific commitment to depicting the nuances of the rakugo tradition.
