Jin Shibamura is the original creator behind the anime and manga series Our Home's Fox Deity, known in Japanese as Wagaya no Oinari-sama. The project began as a light novel series written by Shibamura, with illustrations by Eizō Hōden. The first light novel volume was published on February 10, 2004, by ASCII Media Works under their Dengeki Bunko imprint, and the series concluded with its seventh volume released on October 1, 2007.

Building on the light novel, a manga adaptation was launched with Jin Shibamura credited for the original story. The manga was illustrated by Suiren Matsukaze, also known as Suiren Shōfū. It began serialization on February 27, 2007, in Dengeki Comic Gao! magazine. After Dengeki Comic Gao! ceased publication in February 2008, the manga transferred to Dengeki Daioh magazine, where it ran until May 27, 2013. The manga was compiled into eleven tankoubon volumes.

The story was subsequently adapted into a 24-episode anime television series produced by the studio Zexcs and directed by Yoshiaki Iwasaki, which aired in Japan from April 6 to September 14, 2008. The anime brought the characters and world created by Shibamura to a wider audience.

Thematically, Jin Shibamura’s work on Our Home's Fox Deity centers on fantasy and comedy, drawing heavily on Shinto mythology and Japanese folklore. The central narrative follows a family protected by a powerful, gender-shifting fox deity named Kūgen Tenko, who must navigate the modern world after being sealed for centuries. The series explores the interactions between the supernatural and everyday life, with prominent elements including kitsune lore, guardian spirits, and the domestic challenges of integrating ancient beings into a contemporary household. The light novel series received recognition early on, having won a gold prize in the Dengeki Novel Prize. Through the original light novels and their subsequent manga and anime adaptations, Jin Shibamura established a notable presence in the fantasy-comedy genre within Japanese media.
