The "good luck" poop known as kin no unko (金のうんこ) exists in Japan. Stories like "The Blonde in the Bathroom," where we have to perform a ritual involving repeating words three times. The restroom is also home to spirits like Aka-Cloak and Hanako-san. The cleanliness of Japanese bathrooms may be attributed to this god. In the rite, rice was consumed, signifying a large object the god had left behind-could this be feces? A bathroom was frequently styled and maintained as spotless as possible. Rituals were carried out every new year to petition the kawaya kami for assistance in reaping a successful harvest the following year. Kawaya kami, which had a strong impact on agriculture, also contributed significantly to fertilization. This regular occurrence gave rise to the local faith in kawaya kami, also known as the god of the bathroom. Human feces was once collected by Japanese farms for use as fertilizer in more traditional times. Others interred divine statues beneath the restroom. It used to be widespread practice to worship private gods known as benjo-gami by putting religious statues inside or under the toilet. A few Japanese deities have strong associations with the restroom. The Shinto religion has more Gods than you can count, and they are spread out practically everywhere.
