I saw on Bounding into Comics that a “richly diverse” Buffy reboot was cancelled or put on pause. Somebody in the comments made a good point that he wished that show had aired since a good number of Buffy fans are in the woke/sjw category they can see how it feels to have something they like get ruined. If I’m not mistaken I think this was the show that Anita Sarkessian was complaining about. Odd since complaining about her negative influence on a hobby is bad but she can complain when it’s something she actually cares about. Maybe I give her too much credit but I blame her and Zoe for everything wrong with gaming in the past few years. Or at least corporations taking her idiotic ideas seriously
To be fair I have heard the Buffy tv show was pretty good. I haven’t seen the movie either.
I'm not really sure what your first sentence means. I only know 'kitsune' from Teen Wolf!
As for your second: When I watched Buffy, I was a bit too old to want to hear that kind of "ding-dongy mallrat" speech. I really wasn't the target audience, except that I loved that sort of Christian/Medieval mythology.
Kitsune are "reverse" werefoxes (to put it simply) from East Asia. The word is Japanese, and you'll usually come across that kind, but the Chinese have their own version, that isn't as fun as the Japanese one. Either way, it's basically how the Japanese defame foxes (I think the Japanese wolf has been extinct for a long time, and so has the Japanese population of white sea bears (which, as cold water bears rather than cold air bears, used to have a MUCH longer range around the Eurasian coastline, but their range was severely reduced even before Europeans and Redskins with their new guns started wiping them out along the northwest Atlantic coats (where they were once common as far south as Maine), as foxes are now the largest predator left on the islands (every culture has werebeasts, and they're always the local predator.)
And yeah, you weren't supposed to enjoy the ValleySpeak. Hollywood knew it was grating to everyone outside California.
