Shin Megami Tensei II

Izanami appears briefly as an npc in the post-game dungeon, the Diamond Realm. Upon interacting with her she will thank Aleph and Hiroko for helping her son Hiruko and comment that the two of them remind her of herself and her husband Izanagi when they were first married.

Visionaries

Izanami is featured in one Visionary cutscene in the Game Boy Advance and iOS versions of the game.

In "Droplets of Soukai", Izanami stands in an unknown realm and congratulates Aleph for his actions after the game has ended. She says that all things on the Earth have a soul, from the plants, to the animals, to the wind, to Mother Earth itself. No one can eliminate this concept, and any claims that say otherwise cannot be tolerated, for trying to deny and destroy the Earth will only come back to bite you. She says that he has saved the Earth and the souls it holds, and though the Earth is currently desolate, it's soul and heart still remain. The Earth will eventually be ressurected and bring a rich harvest, and Izanami says that she looks forward to the grace that will soon come.
