I think Buddhism and Shinto are some religions they practice there as well as Christianity and Baha'i.
Shinto is the religion practised in Japan
Shinto hasn't really spread. Over the years, Shinto has been practiced almost exclusively in Japan. Most people who practice Shinto in other parts of the world are Japanese in heritage.
There are presently around 4 million people who follow the belief of Shinto.
Yes, anyone can be a follower of Shinto, as it does not require formal conversion or membership. Shinto is deeply rooted in Japanese culture and spirituality, but its practices and beliefs can be embraced by individuals from different backgrounds. Many people participate in Shinto rituals and visit shrines, regardless of their primary religious affiliation. Ultimately, Shinto emphasizes a connection to nature, ancestors, and community, allowing for a personal interpretation and practice.
There are about 17.822 million people who practice the Shinto religion. Most of them reside in Japan, or come from Japanese background. Asia has the largest population of the Shinto religion. The religion was founded about 2,500 years go. Approximately 0.2% of the world is Shinto.
Most Japanese practice a mixture of Shinto and Buddhism. Shinto is probably the indigenous religion of Japan. Buddhism was introduced by the Japanese people's contacts with Korea and China.

yes
I practice the Shinto religion and often visit shrines to make offerings and pray for blessings.
Shintoists practice a belief in the afterlife, ritual cleansing, and the building of shrines. The foundation of the Shinto religion rests on the idea that all humans contain a "Kami," or 'spiritual essence' and the "Four Affirmations" to lead people to living harmoniously with nature and others.
The two main religions in Japan are Shinto and Buddhism. Shinto is an indigenous belief system centered around the worship of kami, or spirits, while Buddhism was introduced from China and Korea. Many Japanese people practice a combination of both religions, incorporating elements of each into their spiritual beliefs and practices.
