Os kami non se consideran metafísicamente diferentes da humanidade,[1] sendo posible que os humanos se convertan en kami[2] Ás veces venérase aos humanos mortos como kami, considerándoos figuras protectoras ou ancestrais[3] Un dos exemplos máis destacados é o do emperador Ōjin, que á súa morte foi consagrado como o kami. Hachiman, considerado protector de Xapón e kami da guerra.[4] In Japanese culture, ancestors can be viewed as a form of kami.[5] In Western Japan, the term jigami is used to describe the enshrined kami of a village founder.[6] In some cases, living human beings were also viewed as kami;[7] these were called akitsumi kami[8] or arahito-gami.[9] In the State Shinto system of the Meiji era, the emperor of Japan was declared to be a kami,[2] while several Shinto sects have also viewed their leaders as living kami.[2]
