    Izanagi and Izanami, the divine couple who shaped the islands of Japan, brought forth a host of kami — Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo among the greatest, alongside Kagutsuchi whose birth killed Izanami, the mountain lord Ōyamatsumi, Shinatsuhiko, Kukunochi, Ōgetsu-hime, Ebisu, and Awashima.

    The Kojiki and Nihon Shoki disagree on whether Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo were born to both Izanagi and Izanami or emerged from Izanagi's purification alone.

Has aspect
  • Shinatsuhiko, the ancient wind kami born to Izanagi and Izanami in the Kojiki, was absorbed into the Buddhist-influenced figure of Fujin, who inherited the wind god's role while acquiring the iconic bag and fearsome green-skinned appearance from Greco-Buddhist artistic tradition.
