Religion in Naruto

[FitzChivalry Farseer]

Never really heard it being spoken in the Narutoverse. Only that the ten tails was like a god that created that world. However Ive never seen a shrine or temple worshipping the ten tails. . Maybe i havent read it throughly. What do you all think?

 

[Fair Warning]

Considering they are all really smart, they are definitely not atheist

 

[Skriff]

No one really treats the 10tails like a god not only that not too many people knew about the 10tails until the Akastuki reveailed their plans

Buddhism/Hinduism.<---where the concept of Chakra comes from.


Influenced many animes...

 

[jnovak]

Many called jutsu in the manga as well as other titles are from the Japanese culture and Shinto religion. Nowhere is a very strict mention of gods and religion, but a way of thinking and behavior of the characters reflect Shinto as a religion

I remember reading about that! Kind of cool that chakra technically exists in real life.

Here's a link regarding chakra. Seen to be very similar to the descriptions in the manga. Japanese Shinto religion itself has a lot of influence from Hinduism and Buddhism.

Religion already ruins this world. Reality.

Please do not let it ruin fantasy worlds too.

Religion is different with cultures. In Japan, you worship your ancestors. Gods are just a part of nature, the universe, and the natural order of things. (Perhaps because they put human beings over political entities, they are more of a co-operative culture?)

 

[Honord Sage]

Japan has mix in their culture Shinto ancestor worship with Buddhist believes thus Uniting both Ancient Shinto gods and demons with those of Buddhist gods and demons creating a rich mythology for writhers to draw upon. The same way pagan people in Europe have done with Germanic,Celtic,Roman and Greek Mythologies and the old stories.
