MTV played a new preview for tonight's episode where you see the werecoyote & Kira at the same time. Obviously we don't know how it will play out (this is TeenWolf, so it could even end up being a dream), but I'm hoping (and making a bunch of unfounded assumptions at the same time) that the werecoyote is the Kitsune, and that Kira is not. We shall see.

The only problem being that we don't actually know that it's a "werecoyote" yet. We are dealing with "trickster spirits" apparently. Aside from the fact that the coyote is an animal traditionally associated with being a trickster (to the point of being a deity in that capacity in some traditions), it simply hasn't been established that this is really a "were-" anything yet. Scott, Stiles and Allison are all having hallucinations right now. Scott could just be interpreting the Kitsune as a werewolf-like thing, but it might be something different.

Especially as that 'werecoyote' is clearly a young wolf, not a coyote at all. And Kitsune are foxes. So it's clearly not the Kitsune, unless they're pulling another lizard/jaguar Kanima swap even after it annoyed so many fans. Are they saying the trickster spirit is the same as the Kitsune? Because traditionally they aren't. Of course, my only actual knowledge of Tricksters comes from Wikipedia and the Patricia Briggs books, and Wikipedia and one random (but awesome and well informed seeming) fanfic series from my Tokio Hotel days.
