Clad in traditional robes of white and red, you'll often see miko (巫女, lit. "shrine maidens") tending to the day-to-day tasks that keep shrines running.

In modern times, though, miko typically only perform services during Shinto rituals.

Kikyo (from Inuyasha) is perhaps one of the world of anime and manga's most iconic miko, helping introduce a generation to the traditional role in Shintoism.
