Shinigami (死神?, "death god" or "death spirit") is the personification of death in Japan. It's unclear when the concept entered Japanese culture; it may have been imported from China (where there are several psychopomp deities), or possibly been imported from Europe during the Sengoku era—that period in European history featured a common motif of the Grim Reaper gathering souls.
