Myōjin Torii
Place down two dark oak logs with a 5 block gap in between them. You can use spruce logs if dark oak is scarce.
Place seven acacia wood planks on top of each log.
Build an upper lintel with acacia wood slabs. The lintel should protrude 2 blocks out of either side of the pillars.
Place a row of dark oak (or spruce) slabs across the top. The row should protrude 1 block out of either side of the acacia lintel.
Place an acacia wood slab on the bottom of the plank below the upper lintel.
Build across from the slab in step 5 to form a lower lintel.
Add two acacia wood slabs to either side of the lower lintel. Replace the middle slabs in each lintel with acacia wood planks afterward.
Create a myōjin torii variant. Skip only the first part of step 7 to create a Nakayama torii. Skip only the second part of step 7 to create an Usa torii
Sannō Torii
Build a myōjin torii using the above method.
Remove the central dark oak slab and add two acacia wood planks.
Add a dark oak plank on the top.
Add two more dark oak slabs, one on either side.
Add two more dark oak slabs on top of those ones.
Replace two of the dark oak slabs with planks to complete the gable.
Miwa Torii
Build a myōjin torii using the first method.
Place a dark oak slab on the block immediately below the lower lintel.
Build across with dark oak slabs until you have six slabs in a row.
Underneath the dark oak slabs, alternate between acacia slabs and planks until you have built five blocks across.
Build downwards from the outermost acacia wood plank. Add a dark oak log to the bottom.
Build a lower lintel on the side of the torii.
Repeat steps 1-6 on the other side of the torii.
Ryōbu Torii
Build a myōjin torii using the first method.
Place a dark oak log in front of one leg of the torii, with a three block gap.
Add two acacia wood planks on top of the log. Add a dark oak slab on the top.
Add an acacia wood slab on the bottom of the bottom plank in the leg of the torii.
Build across to the pillar created in steps 2-3.
Build a second row above the first you built across to the pillar.
Repeat steps 1-6 on the opposite side of the torii leg.
Repeat steps 1-7 on the opposite leg of the torii.
Personalizing your Torii
Try constructing a stone torii. Use cobblestone in place of acacia and stone bricks in place of dark oak. Stone torii do exist in real life, but are rarer due to them being harder to build.
Build a prismarine torii for your underwater lair. Obviously prismarine torii don't exist in real life, but a Minecraft torii built from prismarine bricks and dark prismarine can look very cool.
Try some of these block schemes: Sandstone (in place of acacia), red sandstone slabs, and chiseled sandstone. Creates a desert-style torii. Sandstone (in place of acacia) and purpur (in place of dark oak). Creates an End-ish torii. Doesn't use end stone brick as it doesn't have a slab form. Nether brick, for a hellish torii outside your evil volcano lair. Quartz (in place of acacia) and stone slabs (in place of dark oak). Creates a clean-looking white torii.
