Asura and Indra

[Frikid]

In the manga,

Asura --> younger son --> good guy
Indra --> Elder son --> bad guy

But in hindu mythology,
Asura were the bad guys and Indra is a god.

Do u think kishi messed up or is it a hidden message?

 

[Joker]

Maybe he only took the names..................?

 

[Fuzzy Panda]

Actually the younger son's name is Ashura.

 

[Klad]

Its his story , he can do whatever he wants

 

[BlacLord™]

Well... being bad is subjective, just as is good.

 

[HENI]

His name's Ashura, not Asura ..

Look up Ashura on google ..

 

[Schɛrzσ]

He just took the names from Hindu mythology and used them as he desired.... that's it.
There's no hidden meaning behind those names, at least not for now.

It basically showcases that good and evil is subjective. In other words, what is good for you is bad for others. What is bad for others is good for you.

By balancing good or positive thoughts and bad or negative thoughts can one attain Enlightenment and True Peace.

 

[The Robot With Human Hair]

I think it's mostly meant to reflect the rivalry between the brothers, and that one is gifted by the gods with talent while the other is completely inept and shunned by them.

 

[Kenshin the god of war]

All i can say is anythings possible. But in my personal opinion, i'll have to say not really...but really.

 

[Tobi98]

His name's Ashura, not Asura ..

Look up Ashura on google ..

Oh hell no!

OT: Maye he wanted to show that good and bad is subjective? I don't know

 

[Senpou]

In Asura's wrath(A japanese game), asura's wife's name was Durga(A Hindu goddess) Lol.

OT: Not really, he took it to show that sage's sons were godly IMO.

Agree with you, like what you like is not necessarily good for you, and vice versa ..
