The word 'ashura' means "tenth" in Arabic. In North Africa, ashur also denotes the tenth month of the Islamic calendar, Muharram. The Day of Ashura is a religious observance marked every year by Muslims on the 10th day of Muharram.


^ This 10th month 10th day which probably means 10th October i.e Narutos Birth date which Shadows his Future 10 Tail(Juubi) Jinchuriki.



Ashura is also the name of a Japanese deity.
With three faces and eight arms, Ashura was revered in Japan as one of the supernatural guardians of Shakyamuni.

^ Its a Name of a Japanese God.... in todays chapter you can see 2 kyuubi faces + 1 Ashuras face = 3 Faces.
and 6 Arms in Kyybi Mode + 2 Arms of Ashura = 8 Arms.



Ashura is also a Swahili name meaning "friend."


A Friend Now who has most Friends in this Series, obviously Naruto.
had like 0 friends at the beginning Now everyone is in his Friend list. thank God ninjas dont have Social Networking sites Account. or Naruto could have been the most followed Guy Or the guy with most friends.







on the Other Hand Indra is a god Name from Hindu religion(our Religion)

so basically i know most of the stuff about INDRA.
Indra Means in English Language " God of Rain & Thunder " Which leads me to think Sasugay is the one with Indras will. since his main attacks are based on thunder & his Kirin jutsu is Really similar to Indra Attack.

God of Rain Leads me to think that before Sasugay it was Nagato who had Chakra of INDRA since Nagato was God of Rain Village. and its pretty clear when Nagato died after that Eventually sasugay turned into this Psycho like Character. Who tried to destroy everything which probably means the chakra was passed from Nagato to sasugay.


the real Hindu God Indra was actually filled with Ego and Was mostly insecure whenever he sees Some one stronger than him. he tried many tricks to stop those People Most of them even Defeated Indra.. yup Indra was gifted since birth but he wasnt the strongest God. there were Gods who were stronger than Him. And there were also People who were Stronger than him. these people were special kind Some of them were Evil Some of them were Good They were Knows as Asura

The second and last are probably true, But the "Tenth" was probably just a co-incidence lol.

Asuras or Rakshasa means demons and God King Indra and Asuras were always fighting but here Naruto is Ashura so I think Kishi wanted some cool names and there is nothing more to it..

you misread it

i clearly said Ashura (which is Japanese God) different from Asura Which were Demons (not all of them) Which is Indian .

i hope you understand

Nice thread tho. Kishi really thought this through imo.

If you read some of the Hindu Stories about God. Im pretty Sure you could relate it to Some of the anime characters.

Then There is this Biggest War Of Indian History Known as " MAHABHARAT " which probably has best story but here is the thing its actually considered as Real Life event.

If only some Japanese Make an Anime about Mahabharta. it would probably break Records of other animes if it is Done well.

true! i read hindu books before, hearing the name indra, reminded me of that, in mythology, indra really was like that, good thread bro!

indeed most of the hindu knows what he was like

Yes and No. Kishi mainly uses Japanese shinto for his story, but there were instances where he's incorporated other regions, like South West Asia ie the Middle east as we call it. So the Arabic part isn't by mistake.

Good info but would be loads better if you referred Sasuke with his name, not with homophobic insults.
