After Nakano-kun eats his dinner with Senko-san, he stands up to bring the dishes into the kitchen, but finds himself in pain. Nakano-kun has hurt his hip due to his lack of exercise and the hard physical work at his company. Senko-san is prepared to give him a massage to help him relax his body. Nakano-kun is lying around with his legs stretched out and just can’t believe what he hears next.
Sometimes the cure to a hard day’s work is the tender love and care of…a fox girl?! Salaryman Nakano’s stressful life is suddenly intruded upon by the fox, Senko-san, who is eager to help him heal his exhaustion. Whether she’s cooking, cleaning, or finding other ways to care for Nakano, she’s there to take away his stress!
Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san is exactly what you need if you’re looking for iyashikei slice of life. In fact, so is the main character, Nakano. Nakano is just like us, a weary and mentally exhausted salaryman whose life seems to revolve around work. However, while we have anime to look forward to, Nakano has Senko, a kitsune who caters to his every whim to help him relax a little! We may not have someone like Senko (and don’t you dare say your mother/wife), but we can at least appreciate all that Senko does for Nakano and feel the healing effects from their interactions while living together.
Senko-san also focuses on another important aspect of playing in the snow: going back inside. The show’s warm and fuzzy aesthetic nicely matches the mood of warming up on a chilly winter day. For most of us, we have to settle for a hot bath, soup, hot cocoa, or a warm blanket, but Nakano has a fox demigod’s tail and he’s going to use it. Poor Senko has to put up with gratuitous fluffing on top of a bad back from too much jumping, and Nakano literally calls her “mom” later, so it ends up being quite a day for her. Overall, it makes for a cute snow day segment that plays to Senko-san’s strengths.
The performativity of this scene is especially egregious as Senko-san briefly devolves into rote harem cliches. Senko’s relationship with Nakano brims with romantic subtext whether you like it or not (I’m not a fan), and the show doesn’t do itself any favors by bringing that to the forefront by introducing a sexual rival. What makes their relationship interesting, if problematic, is that it’s never clearly defined—Senko isn’t his wife, or his mother, or his pet, but an amalgam of all that and more. She’s a very specific kind of fantastical wish fulfillment that doesn’t slot itself neatly into established archetypes, so I think the show does itself a disservice by making her play the jealous girlfriend role. Then again, for a show whose entire purpose is delivering a variety of
The episode ended with some more playful teasing as Senko jokingly complained about him spending the night with another fox and smelling like them. After that, we got Super-Senko-san Time, with the fox taking us for an evening walk to watch the sunset and make wishes when she spots that one of our eyelashes has fallen out.
Anyway, this was surprisingly low on fan service given the setting. We get a moment where Shiro is showing off her swimsuit, and another where Koenji’s white top gets soaked, but otherwise, it was harmless frolicking through the sand and water. There was another sweet moment where neither Nakano nor Senko think they know how to paly on the beach anymore, and Nakano says he’d be happy no matter what they do, as he has her with him. That all ends with the group playing pairs volleyball, resulting in Shiro’s competitive side coming out and Senko hurting her back trying a power-up move.
Amusingly, Shiro and Koenji only managed to catch seaweed, a point that delights Shiro but not Koenji. With the stuff Nakano got though, it’s fine, and the BBQ goes well. There’s some nice contrast come the evening with Shiro and Koenji playing sparklers in an excited fashion, wile Senko and Nakano do so more calmly. Nakano’s mood drops when he says that he thinks it’s sad as the fireworks will burn out just like his soul when he goes back to his lame office job tomorrow. Senko cheers him up though, saying that everything has to end, and while it’s sad, there’s no reason to let yourself suffer because of it. She promises to make him forget being sad because the future is full of possibilities. The episode then ended with the nine-tailed kitsune watching from afar and saying ‘why yes, everything has to end eventually’, then disappearing. Meanwhile, Super Senko-san Time sees her give us a shell to hear the ocean.
The other chunk of the episode is devoted to Senko’s feud with modern technology, and if you’ve seen one movie about a time traveler trying to figure out how a toaster works, you’ve seen this scene. Still, execution is everything, and Senko-san manages to make the cliche palatably cute with some bouncy animation and cartoony expressions. The joke actually turns out to be less “time traveler is confounded by modern conveniences” and more “old person can’t figure out the buttons on the remote control.” Senko even dons a pair of old-person glasses to complete her transformation from pampering wife-mother extraordinaire to confused grandma. It stops short of being mean-spirited, but Senko definitely plays up the
I really feel like I relate so much to Nakano from Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san. In a way, it’s kind of fun to watch Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san because it’s my way of destressing, while it’s also an anime about Nakano destressing from the everyday life of a salaryman. Ironic, isn’t it? Then Nakano said this week that he has this pile of games that he had purchased that just piled up because he got too busy. I completely relate to this and it’s soooooo sad. I had to laugh out loud about it. I have like 4 games piled up that I haven’t gotten a chance to play because, like Nakano, I get busy with life and when I finally have some free time, I do things like lie around in bed exhausted from life. What a conundrum!
