Still in development, but the Kitsune of the Kaidan setting of Japanese horror (PFRPG0 by Rite Publshing is a lot more like Tamamo no Mae than to the standard kitsune as developed by Paizo Publishing. In Japanese mythology, a kitsune gains an extra tail for each century it exists granting more spell-like powers with each added tail - unlike the normal PF kitsune which is simply choosing a multi-tail feat. In all ways Kaidan cleaves closely to Japanese folklore, and not the inventiveness of a given game designer.
It looks like the release of the GMs and Players Guides to Kaidan (which would include these mechanics described above) won't be until sometime this fall.
From Update #28 on the Kaidan Kickstarter is a post on kitsune is all we have publicly available at this time.
