Secondary modern summaries and game/wiki entries describe the Futsu-no-mitama as the sword used by the kami Takemikazuchi to quell the lands; these same sources report that Takemikazuchi was later said to have passed the sword to Japan's first emperor, Jimmu. The supplied material is predominantly modern secondary commentary (game wikis, fandom archives and encyclopedia entries) rather than primary classical ritual texts; therefore the account above is reported as presented in those modern sources rather than as an exhaustively documented classical provenance.
The provided sources do not supply a consistent or detailed physical description of the sword (blade shape, fittings, size, or decoration). Most references name it as a sword or as a "charm" depending on genre conventions; in modern media it appears variably as a wielded weapon or as a charm-item in equipment lists, but no canonical visual specification is given in the available material.
Modern secondary sources characterize the Futsu-no-mitama chiefly by role rather than enumerated magical effects: summaries describe it as the sword used by Takemikazuchi to "quell the lands," implying a function as an instrument of pacification or sovereign authority in mythic accounts cited by those sources. In contemporary games and fiction it is reused as named equipment or a charm that grants power to characters (examples occur in Megami Tensei, Assault Lily, and fan usages such as Shaman King-related uploads). The supplied materials do not provide a consistent catalogue of distinct magical effects (fire, exorcism, etc.).
Amaterasu Ōmikami
Amaterasu Ōmikami is the sun deity and a principal kami in Shinto tradition, presented in classical Japanese sources as ruler of Takamagahara (the High Celestial Plain) and the mythic ancestress of the Imperial House through her grandson Ninigi. She is central to shrine cult at Ise and to ritual nomenclature and practice within institutional Shinto.
Amatsuhikone
Amatsuhikone (天津日子根命 / 天津彥根命) is a kami in Japanese mythology described as a son of the sun goddess Amaterasu. He functions primarily as a member of the heavenly genealogy used to legitimize clan lineages and is later identified as the shintai (sacred body) of Mount Mikami, where Mikami Shrine stands to venerate him.
Ame-no-Tajikarao
Ame-no-Tajikarao is a kami in Japanese Shinto myth notable for exceptional physical strength. He appears in the Ama-no-Iwato narrative as the deity who pulls Amaterasu from the heavenly rock cave, and he is venerated at numerous shrines across Japan with associations to physical power and local lineage claims.
Ame-no-hohi
Ame-no-hohi (also rendered Ame no Fuhi) is a male kami in Japanese mythology identified in sources as the second son of the sun goddess Amaterasu. He is principally attested as an ancestral figure: historical rulers of Izumo and the modern heads of Izumo Taisha and Izumo-taishakyo claim descent from him.
Kuraokami
Kuraokami is a classical Japanese kami associated with rain and snow, named in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki genealogies as one of the deities produced from the violent aftermath of the fire-deity Kagu-tsuchi's death. The name combines kura (闇, "dark") with the uncommon logograph okami (龗/淤加美), a character and set of associations linking rain, supernatural power, and later commentator identifications with snake/dragon imagery.
Tamamo-no-Mae
A legendary shape‑shifting fox‑spirit figure in Japanese mythology who, in otogizōshi and later Edo folklore, appears as a favored courtesan in imperial courts, causes a ruler's illness and political disorder, and—after death—was said to embed her spirit in the poisonous Sesshō‑seki stone until Buddhist rites pacified her.
Ōyamatsumi
Ōyamatsumi is a Japanese kami associated with mountains, islands, and the sea, presented in core creation genealogies as an elder divine ancestor whose children and descendants populate local and imperial mythic lineages. His principal cult site is Ōyamazumi Shrine on Ōmishima, and he appears prominently in Kojiki/Nihon Shoki narratives such as the Kamiumi birth-cycle and the Tenson Kōrin episode involving Ninigi.
Fusang
Fusang is a mytho-geographical concept in early Chinese literature functioning both as a cosmological eastern world-tree (the Tree of the Sun) and as a flexible toponym for a remote island or eastern land. In cosmological texts it is paired with a western counterpart (Ruomu) and houses ten solar birds; in narrative registers it appears in legendary voyage accounts (e.g., Xu Fu) and in a reported fifth-century travel account attributed to Hui Shen (recorded in the Book of Liang).
Fushimi Tokiwa
A named representation that links the historical/legendary woman Tokiwa Gozen with snow imagery (variants: Fushimi no Yuki, Yuki no Tokiwa). Sources present the figure in an ambiguous space between a human/legendary mother and the broader yuki-onna (snow-woman) motif, but do not establish Fushimi Tokiwa as a distinct supernatural species with defined powers or rituals.
Futakuchi-onna
Futakuchi-onna (二口女, ふたくちおんな; "two-mouthed woman") is a Japanese yōkai characterized in folktales by an otherwise ordinary woman who bears a second, functional mouth on the back of her head beneath her hair. Stories commonly present the second mouth as a supernatural condition associated in narrative causation with stinginess, neglect, or injury.
Fuxi
Fuxi (伏羲 / Fu Hsi) is a primordial culture-hero in Chinese myth credited in traditional accounts with establishing social institutions (marriage, family), teaching technologies (hunting, fishing, cooking, music), and originating systems of knowledge such as divination and the eight trigrams (ba gua). Frequently paired with Nüwa, he occupies a foundational role in prehistoric cosmology and ritual memory rather than a narrowly historical figure.
Fuṭrus
Fuṭrus (فطرس) is a fallen angel figure in legends associated with Ali ibn al‑Husayn (Zayn al‑Abidin). In the narrative he dawdles in carrying out a divine command, is punished by having his wings broken and being cast on an island, and is later forgiven and restored following an encounter involving the Prophet Muḥammad, the angel Gabriel, and the newborn Ali ibn al‑Husayn.
