In the first episode of "Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha", one of the new spring

anime series, the main female character is granted with a humanshifting

ability from a fox goddess. The triggering event was as follows: The main

female character, whose name is Inari, accidentally witnesses what seemed

to be a scene of her crush asking another girl out. Being discouraged that

she is less worthy than that girl, Inari wanders in a shrine and happens to

meet a fox goddess. The goddess offers to grant one of her wish, and Inari

wishes to be that other girl her crush asked out. The wish is granted and she

becomes that girl. However, as her family, friends and even her crush

becomes alert that her original self is missing, Inari regrets for making the

wish and goes back to the goddess to cancel it. Unfortunately, the goddess

tells her that she cannot ungrant the wish. Instead, the goddess comes up

with an idea of giving her a humanshifting ability that enables her to turn

back to her original self again. (There is a short and simple transformation

sequence for this one) She is also told that she can now transform into any

other human being at her will.


I haven't read the original manga, but I think her humanshifting ability has

great potential throughout the series.
