Mameda has a big problem: tanuki can’t trick humans nowadays! But when she finds herself spellbound by Bunko’s rakugo, she may have found a solution to her predicament.

Mameda may have decided that she’s Bunko’s apprentice, but the rakugoka has a completely different opinion about the matter!

There’s more to rakugo than just storytelling. If Mameda wants to commit, she’ll have to learn more about humans and teamwork first!

Despite all the warnings, Memeda rushes to save Shirara, her first human friend, after the girl is abducted.

Koito knew Mameda was a tanuki all along!

Mameda’s first performance will be at the Tenjin Festival and she can’t wait to show the results of her training! Too bad she’s also developed performance anxiety.

Shirara finally reunites with her master, but he’s in trouble due to all the debts he owes. Mameda promises to shoulder his debts, but she has no way of repaying them…

Bunko promised not to take on an apprentice. When the Four Heavenly Kings force the issue, Bunko has no choice but to expel Mameda from her employ.

Mameda faces Enshi Kirino, the perfect storyteller. If Mameda wants to pass this trial, she must perform a tale in exactly ten minutes and fifteen seconds. Without mistakes!

Bunchou was a popular rakugoka, but he refused to take on an apprentice. Despite his insistence, he eventually relented and taught his art to a young girl called Bunko.

Mameda cannot accept what Utaroku told her and chases him all the way to the red-light district.

Mameda becomes a pawn in a much larger scheme when the police accuse her of theft.
