News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

  • Well kitsune are shape shifters and usually have smaller forms. So before and after transformation... I guess.

  • I assume the before is the previous incarnation of her "husband/boyfriend" and after is his current incarnation.
    While the kitsune is probably immortal spirit and probably has a diminished form because in modern times people believe less in the supernatural so she has less power and thus is in a less powerful form.

    Keeap in mind this is just my theory based on manga/anime cliches and tropes.

    Eh, my guess is she's decided to appear younger for the sake of not looking too out of place with him or perhaps she's conserving energy. Kitsune aren't.. Like the typical Kami, belief doesn't matter, they can exist with full power without it.

    Or she did it just because... Why the fuck not?
