Created by a Japanese creator.
On Patreon, I share behind-the-scenes content from this project (paid).
• early access to high-resolution manga
• creation process & making-of videos
• character design stories
• deity-related locations
The deities on this site were character-designed and illustrated by Tokura Kura. Since the Kojiki contains no descriptions or illustrations of the deities’ physical appearances, they are depicted based on imagination.
This project does not aim to promote or criticize any specific religion.
It is not intended to serve as an academic, historical, or educational reference.
Mythology is treated as a form of cultural narrative, and the material has been unofficially reorganized and reinterpreted for clarity.
The project places particular emphasis on carefully explaining concepts that may be difficult to understand, especially for readers unfamiliar with Japanese culture.
