"Shukaku" is an allusion to the legend where an old priest named Shukaku who was the custodian of the tea kettle Bunbuku chagama turned out to be an ancient mujina or raccoon dog.

Although it would be nice to add this for the sake of education in Japanology, unfortunately it is hard to find an WP:RS that explains an aspect of manga or anime as being borrowed from Japanese legend or folklore.
