-Nekomata-
A nekomata is a Japanese mythological creature, believed to evolve from domesticated cats. It was believed that after a cat reached ten years of age, its tail would slowly split into two tails, and along the way would develop magic powers, primarily that of necromancy and shamanism. By gesturing with its tails or with its forepaws (as it walked upright), nekomata were said to animate and control the dead. Nekomata in the wild were also said to feed on the corpses as carrion, as well.
-Isonade-
In Japanese mythology, a big shark/fish(?) with 3 tails and 3 fins. Has a dark blue body color, is attracted by blood (like all sharks) and has a personal servant, a small fish named Samehada.
It is similar in context to the "white snake" in Chinese folklore.
-Ryouko-
In Japanese folklore, a Ryouko is a half-tiger, half-dragon beast said to protect shrines high in the mountains.
-Houkou-
A dog spirit in Japanese folklore, with 5 long tails. Has a white coloured body. It lives inside a tree and is spiritually connected to it. Each of the tails possess one of the five elemental powers, that used simultaneously can cause a big earthquake, and it is also known for creating illusions to scary trespassers or those who are harmful to nature.
-Raiju-
Raiju ("thunder animal") is a demon from Japanese mythology. Its body is composed of either lightning or fire and may be in the shape of varying animals, but most prominently a wolf-like creature. It may also fly about as a ball of lightning or fire (in fact, the demon may be an attempt to explain the phenomenon of ball lightning). Its cry sounds like thunder.Raiju is the companion of Raiden, the Shinto god of lightning. While the demon is generally calm and harmless, during thunderstorms, it becomes agitated and leaps about in trees, fields, and even buildings (trees that have been struck by lightning are said to have been scratched by Raiju's claws).
-Kaku-
A phoenix creature, with fire abilities, and a resurrection ability which can only be used very rarely.
-Hachimata-
Hachimata is a dragon or serpent in Japanese mythology. In the ancient Japanese scripture 'Kojiki,' Hachimata has eyes as red as sour sauce, which is crimson to bright red, and has eight heads and tails, with many trees and vines growing among them. Hachi is 'eight,' and 'mata' is tail or thigh in Japanese, hence the name Hachimata - Eight-tail, and not Eight-Head, probably as to differentiate from Orochi.
