This article considers the ways in which Japanese religions interact with the internet and other media. One might imagine that in this age of new technologies, advancing through a globalized culture, the relations between religions and the media would assume rather similar characteristics wherever you go.

For this reason, after noting various widely recognized features of “mediatized” religion worldwide, I present some key features of the Japanese scene in this regard, concentrating on the use of the internet in the communication of religious systems.
