Kētai Akuma Densho

大和政権の勢力が入る以前から信濃地方で信仰されていたとされる土着の神。石棒などが御神体とされる。

出身地:日本
信濃地方における土地精霊と見られている原初の神で、大和政権が入り込む以前から諏訪大社によって祀られていた神であるとされる。諏訪大社とは諏訪湖を南北に2社ずつ囲んだ4つの社(やしろ)の総称であり、「本宮」と「前宮」の上社と「春宮」と「秋宮」の下社に分かれ、建御名方神(たけみなかたのかみ)を祀っているとされている。しかし、上社と下社では別の神が祀られているとする説もあり、下社には古くからミシャクジ神が祀られていると言われる。
Translation: An indigenous god of the Shinano region thought to have been worshiped before the Yamato regime took power. Stone rods are considered its goshintai.

Place of origin: Japan
It is a primordial deity seen as a tutelary spirit in the Shinano region, and is a kami believed to have been enshrined at Suwa Grand Shrine before the Yamato regime took power. Suwa Grand Shrine is a term for the four shrines (yashiro) surrounding Lake Suwa, two each on the north and south, it is divided into the Kamisha (upper shrine), comprising the "Honmiya" (main shrine) and the "Maemiya" (old shrine), and the Shimosha (lower shrine), comprising the "Harumiya" (spring shrine) and the "Akimiya" (autumn shrine), and it is believed to enshrine Take-Minakata-no-Kami. However, there is a theory that different deities are enshrined at the Upper Shrine and the Lower Shrine, and it is said that Mishakuji has been enshrined in the Shimosha since ancient times.

Game Appearances

Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army

Mishaguji is summoned by Munakata at Waden One to dispose of Raidou Kuzunoha. It claims to come from the sea of Suwa and taunts Raidou before attacking. Upon defeat, it exclaims that its curse will still rain upon the Capital even with its death.

Trivia

  • Not counting the Treasure Demons, Mishaguji is the only Persona new to Persona 5 Royal that does not appear in Persona 5 Tactica.
  • There is an urban legend that people began adding the honorific '-sama' to its name after accidents occurred when it was omitted. However, this was debunked by Kazuma Kaneko.[1]

Nomenclature

From Japanese: 御社宮司, romanized Mishaguji or Mishakuji. Often uses the honorific suffixes 様 sama ("esteemed") or 神 kami ("deity").
