Synopsis:

Keita, burdened by his family's disappointment as a weak Inukami tamer, finds his life unexpectedly altered by the arrival of Youko. This enigmatic spirit possesses an ethereal beauty and remarkable control, yet harbors a volatile nature that has defied previous tamers. Their contract begins a series of comedic clashes, highlighting the stark contrast between Keita’s pursuit of simple pleasures – wealth and companionship – and Youko's destructive tendencies fueled by jealousy. The series explores the unconventional dynamic between a flawed tamer and a powerful, untamed spirit, navigating themes of control, desire, and the unpredictable bonds formed through an unlikely partnership. Expect a lighthearted approach to the Inukami taming world, centered on the humorous challenges of managing a spirit with a penchant for chaos.
