Where are all the good god's in the narutoverse. the only god's i've seen so far is the Death god. he has to have a counterpart or something. And why is there no after life mentioned ever. they talk about death in almost every panel but never were you go after death.
 
well to most people here and in japan sasuke is a god!as the manga continues the justus get bigger,so we will see some big god powers soon no doubt!!

also oro seems to be a god! there is no way of killing that crazy polite madman!
 
kishimotos borros alot from mythology and in mythology the gods often have traits of humans. they feel the needs and wants we do. they can be evil, have greed, or even have sexual feelings. (zues was notorious for have a whole bunch of illegitamate children)

and ussaly people are evil if there is no one to straighten them out.
 
But what about that place, with the monks? You know, the one Kakuzu and Hidan killed?

Ummmm so you never heard of the Uchiha gods Madara Sasuke and Itachi! I mean Kishi prays to Sasuke daily!:amuse
 
The gods used in the manga are just like the ones we praise everyday..


We placed them where they are, with their immense powers for something that humanity can only dream to reach..or thrive for it... nothing more.



Or simply put references for mythology make the jutsus sound extremely bad ASSSSS...
 
It's likely that the major forces of the universe (death, nature/seasons, the heavens, etc.) in Naruto have god manifestations along the lines of Shinto (maybe some Buddhist elements mixed in there). I'm sure there are "other belief systems" (like the Jashin cult) which may or may not have concretely confirmable living gods.

The reason we don't hear about other gods is because, as Pain said, Konoha's "religion" is pretty much the Will of Fire/ancestor "worship." Shinigami was necessary for that jutsu (to look scary/cool). Otherwise, Naruto doesn't touch much on the subjects of gods, religions, unifying forces of the universe, why toast lands butter side down, etc.

The Fire Temple is interesting. It's a ninja temple, right? Or a temple associated with the ninja. There's a big statue in there...tengu, right? Anyone remember? Is it also dedicated to "the Will of Fire" or is there a god aspect there? (I'm sleepy so someone else can look it up.)

It should be noted that this is a world which has giant talking frogs.
I always thought these beings came from their own dimension (which would be interesting in terms of "where are all the gods?"), but now that I think about it, I don't remember that ever being stated. And Jiraiya trained on that mountain which *appears* to be a part of the human world.

So my question is where are all the giant animals hiding? In remote mountains or their own dimension (remember humans in the human world can be summoned too; ie. Iruka via scrolls from Chuunin Exam)?
 
All the god's are busy watching Bleach.

I don't think there are gods in Narutoverse mebbe the one that Hidan believes in.
 
Well, we have pain, who is consider a God, Konan is consider an angel.
Susanowo also appeared, there is also the word of Jashin.
I don't know if you consider the will of Fire a God.
If there are demons, there must be gods.
 
Rikudou was definitely a god. He very much looked like one as well with that fur and pointy ears of his. His description also fit that of a God descended upon earth.
Pain is the current God. :amuse
Holders of the Rinnegan and the Death God are the most powerful gods in Narutoverse :LOS

this aint dragonball z

dead is dead
 
Jashin seem like a great god from what Hidan said about him.

Oh and then there's the Noble Uchiha Gods.
 
Hmpfh...
Uchiha's are no Gods. NO ONE calls them gods, only their fans. No connection to Uchiha and 'gods' have ever been made in the manga. The fans actually have to MAKE UP one :laugh.
Pain has other manga characters actually CALLING him a God.
Pain's real identity is the true God. Anyone with Rinnegan basically.:amuse
Just like the supreme God Rikudou himself.
 
Asuma seemed to have a Ghost.

And the first four Hokage's all survive as spirits trapped within the belly of the Death God.

And Oro's Edo Tensei works by sacrificing a human life in order to tie the spirits of the dead to this world:

Naruto didn't want Sasuke to die.

So, I'm guessing that their is an Afterlife, all of these things considered. Certainly it was never said that their was'nt one.

And Jashin would count as a God, would he not? Ri'kudou seems to have "ascende" to Godhood followign his death, and you have already mentioned the shinigami, the God of Death. The Will of Fire seems like a kind of Confuncianism, with perhaps more emphasis on interpersonal relationships over social hierarchy. So there's a religion right there (along with Jashinism).

And look- Buddhas:

Naruto didn't want Sasuke to die.

So yes, there is God's, Afterlife and Religion within the Narutoverse. It's just not emphasised as much, compared to other Fantasy stories. Other than the Will of Fire, of course.
