why is that people die when they run out of chakra when people back in the days didn't even have it, it just doesn't make sens

i guess ppl nowadays would automatically convert physical/spiritual energy into chakra when they are being drained/overexert themselves . the voiding of physical energy kills ppl

chakra is like a physical form of one oneself.!!

the more chakra you have the stronger you are

the less chakra you have the weaker you are...

it kind obviate to the point of going for the strength other than anything else.!!

so at the end of the day people ask themselves for what they really are...!!

Probably because everyone who has chakra came from kaguya. There are still people in naruto that don't have chakra

What is this? It dosent answer op in the slightest.


Ot:chakra was once explained to be a mixture of mental and physical energy. Which would explain why running out could kill you. I personally think kishi didn't think about this when he wrote the kaguya legend in. But mabey people always had the means to create chakra just not the knowledge and without that they had no way to drain their own supply.

No, if that was the case, civilian children and overall civilians wouldn't be given te option of being a ninja.

They still have chakra just a small amount and they're not able to meld it because they don't know how to mold it.

My guess is spiritual energy = health of mind (like, it's still functioning enough to make you move and breathe and such) and physical energy = health of body (you're not physically exhausted and your muscles can still function) which is what chakra consists of.

Humans had all these things before chakra, but it when chakra was introduced, they started to mix with each other (because in order to create chakra, you have to mix physical and spiritual energy) to the point that you can't take either away and if you lose all of it, you lose the energy needed to function and survive.

Maybe their bodies have become dependent on it through time.

yeah . ppl depend on physical and spiritual enery to survive . but can ppl just stop moulding chakra when they run out of it ? they wouldnt die as long as they still have enough amount of those energy even if their mixture-chakra is drained

No... I think it's an unconscious thing and because the body has been doing it so long, suddenly not being able to have them mixed toether could end up killing them because the body doesn't know what to do.

Because Chakra consists of Stamina and Spiritual energy ..... Without Stamina people die ... It was explained in part 1 by Closet Pervy Jonin of all people.

First,people always had chakra but not the knowledge to utilize it,though they didn't have monstrous chakra level by eating the fruit. Saying that they didn't had chakra is like saying earth didn't had gravity before newton explained it.

Second,to prove my first point,sakura's family was a commoner type,but she still learned the way of utilizing her chakra.

OT- It's a life force in common language.
