Revealing the Meaning Behind the Symbols in Naruto and Boruto
From Boruto's symbols to Uchiha and Akatsuki, let's find out together the meaning behind those symbols!
Anime & Manga | 30 September
The ninja in the Naruto world often displays certain symbols attached to his/her clothes. Both in his/her head with a headband bearing the village symbol and in their clothes, which generally shows the symbol of their original Klan.
Therefore these symbols have a function to show the identity of a shinobi and have a certain meaning behind the picture.
What are the meanings behind the logos worn by the ninja from the story of Naruto and Boruto? Let's take a brief look at the meaning of the following ninja symbols!
1. The Meaning Behind the Boruto's Jacket Logo
Actually Boruto has a close relationship with the bolt. Even the hexagon symbol on Boruto's shirt is the bolt symbol. Why is that?
Because "Boruto" is a Japanese pronunciation of the English word "Bolt".
The word "bolt" itself is a form of respect for Neji Hyuuga who died in the Ninja World War. In Japanese "neji" means "bolt". The logo in the form of the chakra flame on the front of the Boruto jacket is also the Hyuuga Clan logo.
2. Meaning Behinde the Logo on the Back of the Konoha Protective Jacket
Then when Boruto grew older, the clothes he was wearing also changed. Now, the jacket that Boruto wears has a symbol in the form of a red vortex. The same symbol can be seen on the back and arms of the Konoha ninja army jacket.
The vortex symbol is the symbol of the village of Uzushiogakure, home of the Uzumaki Clan. Konohagakure placed the symbol on the back to show the close relationship between the two villages.
For Boruto himself, Naruto is most likely to put the logo on the child's jacket so he knows and remembers the origins of the Uzumaki Clan.
3. Understanding The Symbol of The Uchiha Clan
Now we enter the discussion about the symbol of the Uchiha clan. Why is the logo chosen by this clan a fan with a red top?
"Uchiha" is another pronunciation for "uchiwa", which means "paper fan". Sometimes the word "wa" can be read as "ha" and vice versa in Japan.
And what's up with red? The answer is easy. Fans can be used to fan a fire so that the fire can burn bigger and hotter. The Fire Element itself is the mainstay of the Uchiha Clan, with Gokakyu no Jutsu being the main move that must be learned by all family members. Therefore the Uchiha symbol has a red color - because it represents a fire that is lit by a fan.
That's also why Madara has a mainstay weapon in the form of a giant combat fan named Gunbai. During the Sengoku / Japanese Civil War, war commanders used to use an iron fan to give command to their troops.
4. The meaning of the Akatsuki Symbol
Akatsuki means "Dawn" or "Early Morning". When the sun goes down, the sky will look reddish and the clouds covering the sky will also turn reddish. Therefore the long robe used by Akatsuki members was filled with red clouds.
Meanwhile, if the word "Akatsuki" is read separately with different kanji, it will become "Aka Tsuki", which is "Red Moon". Clouds that cover the blood-red moon will of course also be the same color.
This time DuniaGames only discusses the 4 symbols first, so that's the first discussion of the Naruto symbols this time and look forward to the next article huh!
