しにがみ
Shinigami (死神, literally "death god") is the Japanese personification of death, imported to Japan from Europe during the Meiji period.

The term shinigami may also be used more loosely to refer to any death deity. It seems to be a recent term, however, as it belongs to no specific Shinto deity and is rarely used in folklore.

Today shinigami frequently appear in original Japanese works of fiction (anime and manga most often).
