Samui opened Kitsune Paradise on September 18, 2004, which was his 18th birthday. The site went through a major overhaul from Digital Gate. The skin was changed to a dark blue forest theme, and used pictures of a fox drawn by Kuro for its header. It was dedicated to classic gaming, roleplaying, and Kitsune.
In October, the forum software was upgraded to IPB 2.0. Also, Samui started work on a chat client designed specifically for roleplaying with multiple characters. It was named kRPG at the time. He released the first version on October 9th, and continued improving it over time. Around November, Samui revised the skin on the site to look a little less dark.
On December 25th, the first anniversary of Digital Gate's opening, Samui changed the layout of the front page of the site. It no longer ran on IP Dynamic Lite, and was coded almost entirely by Samui himself. He designed it to show the status of three game servers he had running - kRPG, Charred Dirt, and Kailerra Netplay.
At some point in March 2005, the layout of the front page was changed again, and a set of new skins were made. Most of the set were the same theme, just different colors. Two of them were upgrades of previous skins that were on Digital Gate, namely "Kitsune 1" and "Kitsune 2".
Around July 2005, a new skin was made for the site. This one was similar to the original Kitsune Paradise theme in that it was dark blue. It took on more of a standard roleplaying theme. Later on that month, a forum called "Therianthropy Discussion" was added to the board, where members who were interested in that subject could make discussions about it.
At the end of May 2007, the site went through another overhaul. This appearance had been maintained for over a year (see picture to the right).
In the beginning of September 2007, the decision was made to move the spirituality part of the site to another site, called Kitsuhana.
