- The animal has been significant in Japanese folklore since ancient times and is reputed to be mischievous, jolly, a master of disguise and shapeshifting, but is somewhat gullible and absentminded. The tanuki were originally deified as governing all things in nature, but after the arrival of Buddhism, animals other than envoys of the gods (foxes, snakes, etc.) lost their divinity and were seen as evil or as monsters. However, since the tanuki of Japan do not have a fearsome image, their image took the form of a more humorous kind of monster, and even in folktales like Kachi-kachi Yama, and Bunbuku Chagama, they often played the part of foolish animals
- Tanuki(狸 or タヌキ) is the common Japanese name for the Japanese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus). They have been part of Japanese folklore since ancient times. The legendary tanuki is reputed to be mischievous and jolly, a master of disguise and shapeshifting, but somewhat gullible and absent-minded. Tanuki is often somewhat mistakenly translated as raccoon or badger into English, animals which are similar to tanuki in appearance, but are actually different species.
- In the Street Fighter series, tanuki are common near Ibuki's ninja village, and she has a pet tanuki named Don-chan. The village has a tanuki population of 256. In Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix, Ibuki throws tanuki statues when using Kasumi Suzaku.

- Tanuki (Japanese: タヌキ Tanuki), alternatively spelled tanooki and often translated to raccoon, are a species that appears in many Nintendo franchises as well as Tom Nook and his nephews Timmy and Tommy are tanuki in the Japanese version of Animal Crossing. Additionally, Miles Tails Prower was originally going to be a tanuki, but was changed to a fox for copyright reasons. Tanuki are also the main species in the YoshiEgg (series). YoshiEgg Nook, Thunder Nook, Rhode, and CrackedEgg Nook are some examples.
- Tanuki were Hengoyokai badger spirits that originated from Chikushudo. These shapeshifters tended to be jolly and friendly, though they were also hot-tempered. Badgers did nothing halfway — they played malicious pranks upon those who displeased them, and went out of their way to reward those that treated them with kindness. They felt deeply protective of the Minor Clan that shared their name, the Badger Clan. Tanuki were particularly good at shapeshifting, and enjoyed doing so into inanimate objects.
- While heading to the home of a bitter, elderly man, whose death is imminent, Botan and Yusuke spot a "tanuki" who are, as Botan explains, rarely seen in the city. Upon being seen, Botan talks to it, much to Yusuke's bewilderment, and it is revealed that it had once been saved by the elderly man and his grandson. After inquiring about the old man's grandson, and learning that he'd died in an accident, the tanuki transformed into him, and insisted on repaying the old man for his deed. Yusuke, however, insisted that it had no chance as the old man was no longer the kindly gentleman he used to be.
- The Japanese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus), also known as tanuki (狸 or たぬき ? ) in Japanese, is a subspecies of the raccoon dog native to Japan. Researchers have suggested that they be considered a separate species, N. viverrinus, or that raccoon dogs of Japan could be further divisible into separate subspecies as N. p. procyonoides (hondo-tanuki) and N. p. albus (ezo-tanuki), but both views are controversial
