The Fūma Clan (風魔一族, Fūma Ichizoku) is a renowned ninja clan, famous in at least Amegakure and the Land of Fire. It is unknown where they hail from. They are well-known as an aggressive clan and fight using their characteristic giant Fūma Shuriken; a large, four-bladed weapon said to possess preeminent sharpness.
Overview
This clan started the Otsutsuki clan (One of Fuma's peasant branch families)
Name
The name Fūma (風魔) literally means "Wind Demon" and comes from a real-life ninja clan founded by the legendary Fūma Kotarō. This Fūma Kotarō is said to have defeated and killed the equally legendary samurai Hattori Hanzō (who gave his name to Hanzō, who was in turn defeated and killed by Pain).
Trivia
- In the anime, another Fūma clan is featured. It is unknown whether the Fūma clan from the anime and the manga are the same, but it is unlikely, since the names are written differently and the clans' descriptions differ.
