As the Shinto Gods Say

Once, while surfing YouTube for some good mythology content, I stumbled upon an incredibly catchy song based on the Japanese myth of the sun goddess Amaterasu in the Cave!


Titled "As The Gods Say", this song uses anime-styled visuals to represent the story...which should strike a chord with anime fans.


Plus (as the uploader states in their description), it's originally from a Japanese web source...which makes it even more authentic.


The details are all there:


The storm god Susanowo's fury


Amaterasu hiding in the cave and the darkness that followed


The dawn goddess Ama-no-Uzume's exuberant dance that got Amaterasu to return


As summer draws to a close and the school year begins in the North of the World, enjoy this wonderful song inspired by this story in which the sun retreats.
