Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water in Japanese mythos? Sorry but you forgot "Void" or "Sky". No big deal, I had to use Wikipedia, too. Am I splitting hairs?

On the other hand, there are Wu Xing, the Five Elements of Chinese Philosophy, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. Should be distinguished.

And to clarify, Fire, Earth, Air and Water are the four elements in ancient Greek philosophy.

I admit, I only knew the difference between Greek and Chinese ones before this, and now I'm confused because the Wikipedia articles mention "Void" and stuff.
