The Uzumaki clan (うずまき一族, Uzumaki Ichizoku) was a prominent clan in Uzushiogakure. They were distant relatives of the Senju clan and thus were on good terms with the clan and its own village of Konohagakure. Up to this day, the symbol of Uzushio is integrated in the Konoha shinobi uniform as a sign of friendship and goodwill between the two villages.

The Uzumaki clan members were feared for their knowledge of sealing techniques.

Members of this clan were very knowledgeable of fūinjutsu. This reputation earned them renown and fear worldwide, which eventually led to the destruction of Uzushio, and the rest of the Land of Whirlpools during the era of Shinobi World Wars.

The members of this clan possess incredible vitality, one case living from before the founding of Konoha well into the term of the Third Hokage. This vitality was the reason Kushina Uzumaki survived the extraction of her Tailed Beast, though she was greatly weakened.

Trivia

  • The surname "Uzumaki" is a pun on "spiral" (渦巻), because it refers to a three-dimensional spiral, like a whirlpool or vortex. "Uzumaki" can also mean "whirlpool", in reference to the Naruto whirlpools (鳴門の渦潮), named after the city of Naruto.
  • All three of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's jinchūriki were members of the Uzumaki clan.
