The Church of Naruto

No idea what or who naruto is can you explain?

I think those answer won't satisfy you too much. I am not really a fan of Naruto but my big brother is. Naruto is a manga (or we call it cartoon) originally from Japan. The teaching and philosophy deal with the Ninja Philosophy. And these Ninja serves in temples, not churches.

Im not a fan of naruto but I do admit it there many wise words and life lesson that we can learn from that anime. I never know about naruto till my friend told me that he is crazy about one anime/manga about ninja boy called Naruto, he showed me the book, but I wasnt interest cos I saw the picture not attractive for me. But sometimes I watch the anime on TV, my couin loves Naruto into his flesh. Many lesson from naruto I guess come from the mangaka himself. Japanese gt many old wise words that inspirating of nature and human being, may be he gt it from there. If you want to leanr more about the philosophy you have to watch japanese channel like NHK they gt show that exploring about manga, sometimes its phylosphy also included. I read other manga with strong phylosphy as naruto like: Vagabon and Samurai Deeper Kyo, both are worth to read.

Oh, if you also like to read the article, I have the link. I hope others fan and no-fan could read it too, so they'll know that the anime is not just an ANIME, but it really has a great lesson behind it. http://www.juancountry.com/what-filipino-politicians-can-learn-from-naruto/

I'm not really seeing a lot of responses answering your question so I'll try it out for you. The first thing that probably gets you all feeling good about yourself is the fact that a lot of it talks about love and friendships and not giving up on your dreams. Love and positive thoughts can empower you and make you feel stronger and more confident in yourself and if you can hold on to that you can pass all these good feelings on to others. The next thing is that it seems based on spiritual beliefs. The chakras for example, we all have chakra. And then I try to relate some of their jutsu and things to spiritual things. So examples are Sakura healing with chakra is like Reiki (a form of healing with energy from Japan) and the byakuugan is like seeing other peoples auras or chakras. The rasengan is just an energy ball which some people say we can do as well. Hope this explains it all a bit better for you :)

You do realize that Naruto is a shonen manga, written for boys below the age of 15, right? Besides that, I personally find the philosophy rather contradicting. I say this because early on in the manga, characters often say, "hard work beats genius". But then Rock Lee, a hard worker, gets destroyed by Gaara, who in turn gets beaten by Sasuke who is a genius. So genius beats hard work after all. Besides this, Naruto never really worked hard. Okay sure, he spent like a week learning the rasengan. But that was about it really. His power comes from inheriting the 9-tails from his dad. So inheritance beats genius which beats hard work, is the moral of the story. Not really motivating to me.

LOL! I so totally could relate to you! I get empowered whenever I hear/read Naruto's principles, and yes it encourages me to kick some major bums too. ^^ There are a lot of things that we could learn from the manga, from friendship, bonds, family ties, life principles and many other things. I even read a blog somewhere discussing how politicians could learn from Naruto's beliefs. If only said politicians could give time of the day to read the article. I'm a huge fan of this anime since I'm in elementary, but I don't know if I can specify anything to you about what I learned from it. ^^;

I'am a naruto fan before but since i got busy on my school i didn't have much time to watch the anime and read the manga. Naruto is a good anime to watch, as pass goes by, he always learn something. Maybe i'll finish watching my favorite anime Gintama for now, before going back to Naruto. Anyway, also try that anime, it'll taught you valueble lesson when the episode goes serious otherwise you'll laugh so hard :)

I'm a big a fan of Naruto and I watched all its episodes already. Every week I'm waiting for a new movie/manga release. It's philosophy is really based on its author and what he really wants to happen in real life. Naruto is a nice movie and for sure if you'll watch it you can learn a lot.
