There are two Komainu(狛犬) play with each other, they are pair of holy beasts of Beitou Shrine, "Komainu" is Japanese pronunciation, cause their appearance frequently look like lion or dog, so also called lion-dog, and they are often appear in front of Japanese shrine, but just like all holy beast of shrine in Taiwan, when the Japanese leave here, they started their tragic destiny, maybe they must be worry about get hurt or be hated, but they still guarded in here with lonely and never give up be
a best messenger even their shrine already losing.
But this time, our fox guardian will give them a new soul for their life and hope can save them out of tragic fate. Well!! This is holy beast of fox should do!!
Maybe you think that I made them be so adorable, but this mission is my promise, they may not be angry with me?!
Finally, I named them KOMA & MURA.

這是兩隻在彼此玩耍的狛犬,他們是北投神社的一對聖獸, "Komainu"是狛犬的日語發音, 因為他們的外貌通常像是獅子或狗, 所以又稱為獅子狗, 他們通常出現在日本神社前, 但是就如同多數在台灣的日本神社的所有聖獸一樣, 當日本人離開了這裡以後, 他們便開始了悲慘的命運, 也許他們必須擔心自己遭到傷害或被憎恨, 但是他們仍然孤獨的守護在這裡, 並且從不放棄做一個最好的使者, 即使神社早已消失.
但是這次, 我們狐狸守護者將賦予他們新的靈魂, 並且希望能夠拯救他們脫離悲慘的命運. 很好!! 這正是狐狸聖獸應該做的!!
也許你認為我讓他們變得太過可愛了, 但是這個任務是我的承諾, 他們也許不會生我的氣?!
最後, 我給了他們新的名字KOMA & MURA.
