  "textContent": "Shintoism has hundreds if not thousands of gods both old and new, this one is definitely of the latter variety, helping those in need of more adult favors.\n\nThe shrine is dedicated to a great deity called Nobunaga (Nobunaga Daimyōjin), but a different one from the well known samurai. It is a large black phallus with a traditional shinto coat and surrounding decorations.\n\nAt its base one can find various good luck charms that should be carried to lose one’s virginity, increase libido, or the size of their tool. Like Billiken, this deity began as a joke but gained somewhat of a following from people who pay their respects and buy the charms.",
