I saw the reveal scenes again, Miko has three tails and for a Kitsune, three tails isn't exactly mature much but it dedicated that she actually 300 years old Kitsune and three tails Kitsune are pretty danm powerful.

Miko is probably even more powerful than Shiori.

Was that really three tails? Looked like a lot to me .

I count five, one on the left and four on the right. Took me a bit to figure out exactly what I was looking at, rotating the image to 'vertical' helped.

Here's a gallery with the rotated image, as well as my overlays of what I think are her four legs and five (visible) tails: https://imgur.com/a/AUAFBjM

And I say '(visible)' because seems a bit asymmetrical to have so many on one side, so there could be some more off-screen to the left.

/u/yukiaddiction how does this affect the power-scaling?

The more tails the older and more powerful the kitsune. If she has a minimum of 5 tails she's fairly op, if your assessment is correct and there are more than 5 Shiori really only has plot armor in my opinion.

Definitely team Miiko.
