What about Dragon's Palace?

One of my favorite japanese legends is the one about the Dragon's palace... i'm sad that it isnt in this article...

Modernization?

What is that mess with 'modernization' of hu into fu and di, zi into ji? and 'mute' consonants? There is just romanization standards. Doesn't the wikipedia follow one? and how words are ... spelled...

The Shinto pantheon alone boasts a collection of more than 8,000,000 kami

See also, Complex in what sense?

From the TokyoPop translation of NHK no Youkoso! (Volume 1, Chapter 4)

Misaki: In Japan alone, there are eight million--wait is that right? That's too many! Is that word "eight million"?

Satou: The word means "myriads" too.

Misaki: Huh? Oh I see now! It is "myriads"! Well anyway, the bottom line is that there are a lot of gods.

The fact that Japanese deities are Koreans is written on each respective page

I have aligned it with the consistency of other articles. For more details, please refer to the articles on Izanagi, Amaterasu, Susano-o, and Baekje. They are explicitly identified as Koreans with solid sources.

This information should be added. Each page has reliable sources Silla69 (talk) 13:19, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
