Shinto is the ancient religion of Japan. Followers are followers of Shinto. However many Japanese follow other traditions for the pageantry - as an example many like the trappings of the Christian wedding ceremony and Christmas. This is similar to the way that Christians in North America use names for days of the week which honour Norse deities (Tiw, Woden, Thor and Frigga) without being considered followers of that religion.
Buddhism from China eventually influenced Shinto religion within Japan. However Japanese till this day are mostly not Buddhists/Taoists. They use a mixture of both Buddhist and Shinto beliefs.

First a bit of background on Japan and religion. There are several overlapping religious traditions that Japanese people observe. However, modern Japanese society is becoming increasingly secularized, and for some religion has taken on more of a cultural role than a spiritual role. Shinto is the native religion of the Japanese archipelago; it is a system of rituals centered around interaction with kami, spirits that followers of Shinto believe dwell in everything. Shinto uses music at shrines, in festivals, and during important life events such as weddings. Japanese people also practice Buddhism, which uses chanting to optimize one's mind for meditation. Hope that helped!

Evangelism is not a religion per se. It is a practice, defining a certain way of preaching and spreading the gospel. Many different religions practice or use evangelistic practices.
Most Japanese are atheists. They used to worship their emperor, but that ended after they lost the War. Still in use are Shinto, Buddhism and Confucianism with some Taoists and a smattering of Christians. The first four are not mutually exclusive, so you could say the largest faith is "cafeterianism."
State Shinto refers to the form of Shinto that was promoted and supported by the Japanese government during the Meiji period (late 19th to early 20th century) as a means to unify the country under one national religion. Shinto, on the other hand, is the traditional indigenous religion of Japan that has a long history and is still practiced by many people today.
Shinto is the indigenous religion of Japan. Like Hinduism, it is not credited to any particular founder. The Japanese gave their religious beliefs a name, in order to preserve the religion, while Buddhism & Confucianism were entering into their country.
