Neo-Shinto

Neo-Shinto  (老神道 Roushintou  ' Way of the Old Gods' ) is a neo-pagan religion that seeks to revive the Pre-Christian religion of Japan. Its practitioners are largely found in Japan. However, Shintoists can be found throughout the global Japanese diaspora, with the second largest concentration being found in Peru, followed by Alaska. While rare, some non-Japanese have taken up the practice of Neo-Shinto as well. Within Japan, the religion has some connotations of Japanese Nativism and Far Right political views.

Neo-Shinto is sometimes grouped by outsiders as a part of "Asian Paganism" alongside Muism. However, there are some differences, notably that while Neo-Shinto is an attempt to revive a dead, organized Pre-Christian religion, Muism is an attempt to organize a living, decentralized Pre-Christian religion.
