Why The Rain Village Is So Insanely High Tech?

The Rain Village is different from any other place in the Naruto world. Unlike the Leaf Village, Sad Village, Mist Village, Cloud Village, and Stone Village, the Mist Village has tall skyscrapers made of metal tubes and pipes. The skyline is much higher than any other village which is weird. We mostly saw the village during the Jiraiya vs Pain fight.
The Land of Rain was the battlefield for the first three Ninja Wars in the Naruto series. So how is the Rain Village so insanely high tech? Is it because of Pain? Nagato became the leader of the Rain Village after defeating Hanzo of the Salamander, the former leader of the Rain Village. Let's find out how the Rain Village was built.

What's the best village to live in Naruto?

[@justinarzola4584]

Each village had political issues but the stone village seemed the best.

[@asiangirlfanboy]

I agree, the Stone Village seems to be the opposite of the Hidden Leaf. What does Jiraiya's timeline as a student and mentor look like? I assume Nagato, Yahiko and Konan are younger than Minato but older than Kakashi, Obito and Rin.

[@voxideshtaylakov]

Only normal place to live is Leaf village

[@silvershadow8866]

The pipes are for the unstoping rain And the main vilages look how they look because they are "hidden" villages

[@asiangirlfanboy]

@@voxideshtaylakov What about the root? The Uchiha"s were pressured by the rest of the village's clans and they were going to stage a coup. The third went through a lot during his years as a hokage and his students were in disarray. The Hyugas didn't have the best relationship with the hokages and probably kept every citizen that wasn't an adequate shinobi at arms length. Itachi Uchiha was one the only prior ninja to be considered for the position of hokage and he was aligned with the Akatsuki. Twelve year old Naruto with no constant familiars or dependable friends within the same village. I watched a video actually explaining other villages and I think the village hidden in the Leaves is the second most ninja adjacent village among the five great nations.

[@law6800]

He could probably make a shit ton of money selling the Naraka path's abilities as a service

[@Grayson-Winchester]

Don't forget Pain explained to Hidan, that Akatsuki needs as much funds as possible.

[@justinarzola4584]

This becomes relevant later when we learn some of the Kage had dealings with the Akatsuki.

[@theoceanman8687]

Kakuzu: 🤑

[@sebas8225]

Pain likely wanted to establish a bank for rain village and let kakuzu cook.

[@Timquan.]

It always interested me what the Akatsuki duos were mainly used for outside of Jinchudiki hunting. From what I know, I can guess Hidan and Kakuzu were tasked with being the primary earners for the organization, mostly going around and collecting bounties. Sasori and Deidara seemed to be the strong arm team, essentialy the enforcers. They were sent to go kill Orochimaru, and I'm sure they were the ones sent on missions requiring great destruction, Also Sasori's network of spies likely allowed the organization to be informed and track down people they were looking to kill. And itachi and Kisame probably found themselves running special operations for the organization, I say this because they went along with Sasori to recruit Deidara, they infiltrated the Leaf village in part 1 and gauged the strength and capabilities of top shinobi both pre and post timeskip. Both of them are Spies and both are the only 2 of the 3 main duos to know Pain isn't the true leader it's Obito, or Madara to them. However Obito knew Kisame was loyal to him while Itachi was a Leaf spy, so he likely sent them on missions that Itachi wouldn't personally hinder. And even when he did Kisame would be there to tell him what happened and he can figure out from there what Itachi was like trying to or not trying to do, creating a balance mission to mission for the two. I just find the organizations dynamic as a whole interesting, and a missed opprotunity not being expounded upon. Like Hidan and Kakuzu could have ran a criminal organization on the side as a means for revenue for the Akatsuki. That could have given Shikamaru a brief detective arc before the revenge arc.

[@rascoehunter3608]

The rain village most likely sold and traded Intel with other villages. In the flashback Hanzo had connections with Danzo and the Anbu. It is reasonable to assume that Pain would probably have similar contacts with other villages. There's no telling what other kinds of Intel Hanzo had lying around after he died.

[@username2168]

Kishimoto was going crazy with his pencil, or he just had beef with his assistants and wanted them to suffer

[@yeager1957]

Also notable that all that metal is probably aluminum or something else rust proof considering how much rain falls there. That implies more tech than you would expect.

[@VOID_Too]

I mean they have combustion engines as seen in the zabuza arc when they mentioned having to travel with the engine off, And the boats engine looks like one on any totally average fishing boat

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

All in all Nagato was a suprisingly well "Kage" for his comparatively small but highly advanced place. It also makes sense for the locals to need sturdier buildings with how traumatized they all are being abused by the big nations as battlefield and for their reccources along who knows what else. Wood houses would break to easy, rust proof metal lasts.

[@SuperFizzah]

[@sycore_v]

Yep, there is also in the anime, when Obito approach Nagato before the meeting with Hanzo, the rain village was like this at that time

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

Its's 100% due to the constant rain and being raided and used as battlefields so much by the big nations that at some point instead of stone or wood they created buildings thst last. Pipes to transport rainwater and make use of the nature of the village.

[@Joshua_N-A]

Rain Village design, the computers, VHS, wireless communicator, Cloud's beam cannon, tv camera, all of this in Naruto just screams Final Fantasy to me. Heck, Kishimoto should've just put that scooter in to drive it home.

[@gabriel-5369]

The village looked so much more advanced than the others. Pain having this omnipotent aura. He knows absolutely everything inside the village

[@enricokohler475]

The rain village reminds me of that one city-boulding in China - Kowloon - were people basically just gathered and build floor over floor and everything is connected with pipes and sketchy power lines - and the small bottom corridor don't get any sunlight and there's permanently water running down the walls from all the pipes. I think Kowloon was one inspiration behind the Rain Village - a lot of poor people building their dystopian looking multistore fortress

[@AssignedCryptid]

Tons of massive pipes would actually be really useful in a country which rains constantly, because having lots of gutters and a robust stormwater drainage system would prevent your big tall buildings from getting water damage.

[@froznpyro]

I always just figured the pipes were for steam. Considering they're constantly bombarded with water, it just made sense that they'd primarily utilize steam for power.

[@kylenetherwood8734]

It's like how Dubai makes loads of massive wacky buildings that aren't really for anything. It's too prevent a brain drain (all the engineers leaving). That would be a problem for a war torn nation like Rain. This would be why the akatsuki took so long to start capturing tailed beasts. They needed to be mercenaries to fund infrastructure projects.

[@masaomorinaga6412]

The Asura Path might have the ability to make cyberpunk buildings grow from the ground just like how Yamato can make wooden buildings grow from the ground. It depends on how you view Asura Path's ability. People think his ability is just being a cyborg. But maybe his ability is similar to wood style in that he can make mechanical things appear from anywhere not just from his body.

I theorize that the Rain Village is so high-tech (and that Naruto has such inconsistency in its technology level) because the world of Naruto takes place in a distant, post-apocalyptic future where there used to be something at least similar to the modern world (or possibly even the futuristic worlds present in Gundam and Macross series), but it was destroyed in a cataclysm. Hell I think that it would be really interesting world-building for one or more characters to unearth a buried stockpile of assault rifles, or a tank, or a jet, or a car, or even a giant mech like a Gundam or something.

[@calvinstraveldreams]

In fact, I would even theorize that Naruto takes place on post-apocalyptic Strangereal (the fictional world where most Ace Combat games take place) given the similarity in shape and size between the Naruto continent and Usea (or perhaps Anea) (there are differences, but they can be understood to be due to either plate tectonics, floods, erosion, or meteorites---whereas the differences between the Naruto continent and any continents on real Earth are too big to be explained by either plate tectonics, floods, erosion, or meteorites), as well as the fact that in Ace Combat games, everyone refers to the planet as Earth--and I presume Naruto characters do as well given the use of the term "Earth Release." Given that both Ace Combat and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm are owned by Bandai Namco, this opens the possibility of a Bandai Namco shared universe, with possible crossovers with Ace Combat, Ridge Racer, and even Gundam (for instance, imagine Sasuke during his travels discovering the remnants of the Stonehenge superweapon, or a buried Gundam, or a garage full of the cars from various Ridge Racer games).

[@danielfame2940]

Nagato has gravity powers to move the materials for him. Nagato has a summoning animals to help in the production. Nagato has the ability to create machines out of nothing or manipulate bodies to do so. considering Yamato was able to create wooden foundation with wood release to help rebuild Konoha, its not hard to imagine Nagato playing a huge role in the development of Infrastructure in the hidden rain. remember this guy could create jutsu's, this isnt far fetched.

[@cernanwinterfox85]

I always figured its because the hidden rain is effectively a city-state. Like the ninja villages are small tucked away secret villages in huge countries whereas the hidden rain is a ninja organization within a city thats like 90% of the countries population. Like I see it being something like Singapore or Kuwait, just a lot more ravaged and run down.

[@pliskenx51mm83]

I believe it was probably right after the Chunin exams. The war wouldn't have lasted long because of Nagato and the Akatsuki. It was probably starting when Itachi and Kisame went to the Rain village in part 1. And most likely ended during the start of the timeskip.

If you think about it for a minute or two... you have a city completely enveloped in rain. you would need a very complex system to drain that water from your streets and buildings to prevent flash flooding... so having all of the piping could just be to move the rain water around/out of the city proper...

[@sosoyoru]

I think it might be that the major villages are the countries capitals. The oldest towns, therefore they have more old time'y architecture. It's not a perfect explanation

I think Pain being the one who created the rain village is probably the most likely, but it's interesting that there are other instances of modern buildings that all seem to be abandoned ruins. Almost like there was some more advanced civilization even before the warring states period that collapsed long before the start of the series.

[@LittleMetallic]

There's flashback episodes in the anime, and specifically in episode 348 "the new Akatsuki", where we actually see that the rain village has always been so developed even in the past before Yahiko ever died, when Danzo tricked Hanzo into destroying the Akatsuki. We also know that the hidden village is the only one with technological advancement like that in the hidden rain, because in every flashback from Jiraya training the kids and those before from Nagato when his parents died, all the architecture we see is normal. What we do see that's technologically advanced is Hanzo himself with his metal gas mask/helmet and retractable scythe. Imo Hanzo was the one that built up the city to begin with but of course, being such a small nation, he didn't want to share his tech with the rest of the world, or other villages would take then on, develop even further and fully destroy the rain afterwards in their wars to come. I believe Hanzo did that to protect the village and its citizens during wartimes because it's obviously harder to destroy metal skyscrapers than it is brick and wood. I DO believe though that Nagato built that giant head himself. We see it has Rinnegan and he is considered a god, whereas Konan is known as the angel. We also know that the Rain Tiger at Will technique is what detects strong chakra signatures and is disguised as constant rain. I think Nagato gave the tongue head itself the Rinnegan to watch over the village and together with the rain, they basically know everything that ever goes on within the village. So my assumption is that due to that, they are called god and angel, as opposed to because of what they've done for the village. The village was ALWAYS serious about protecting itself with the Susanoo clones that used to be in the village until the fourth Amekage retired, and the village walls and gates being made of Kōton steel, as well as the ANBU that immediately join at the gate whenever a strong chakra signature is being detected by the rain surrounding the village.

[@yeweston1411]

It seems more industrial looking rather than technologically advanced

[@stevetherush1193]

short answer: the akatsuki is pretty rich, pain took over a while ago, and they had to adapt to the rain somehow also, the 5 villages are built based on location and the clans that settled as well as the money they have otherwise..awesome vid

[@MMAli-rq8kd]

I've always say the Rain Village like the small Gulf Nations; very rich in natural resources, small in area, each has one city, and same style of government as well as the attitude tward the leader is one of gratitude and reverence! The parts of the Land of Water where the fighting takes place are scarcely inhabited as most people live in the Rain Village, probably because the other smaller villages were destroyed in the wars.

[@HardyMetalliX]

Something that amazes me about the rain village is combination of megalophobia, thalassophobia, submechanophobia, and monophobia: fear of gigantic things, the deep sea, human-made submerged objects, and isolation. The sense of loneliness and danger that comes from being stuck between the naturally deadly waters and those gigantic unmovable iron structures that humans made to control and stay the F away from those waters... Two episodes solidify this sense of loneliness between those two opposing forces: 1. Jiraya vs Pain. You're inside a gigantic building full of pipes and giant deformed animals with psychopathic eyes who want to devour you, and no humans around to help you. Then in the final scene, you're outside of that building, there's only water, you're on the wrong side of the giant steep wall that was made to protect the city from the water you're swimming in, and you can feel that you don't belong here as a human as there is almost no ground to step on, even Pains are standing on random pipes like the floor is lava. It's unsafe, you need to head back into the city, or you will die alone. Which is what makes the outcome of this fight so freaking depressing and it would be even more tragic if the frog hadn't survived to tell the exploits of Jiraya. Even Kishimoto agrees with me, as he pans over to Naruto and Tsunade chilling in the nature, as Jiraya fades into darkness, they get distracted, they feel something is off, but they don't know what. Jiraya is trying to give them signs but no one can hear him. 😭 2. Konan vs Tobi: the place where she brings him is just haunting, my nightmare as a social and terrestrial creature. We don't even know how far it is from the city but we can see a few pipes sticking out of the ocean, the only spot where they can rest their feet (till they learn how to fly like it's DBZ), we don't know why those giant pipes are there in the middle of the sea, where they lead (remember submechanophobia), how old they are, or if they're still functional. It's desolate. Konan is brave for choosing such a lonely place, knowing she might not return alive. No one will hear you die here, no one will find your body... To make matters worse, she splits the sea and creates a ravine into hell and no one notices the cataclysmic change she's made to the planet, that's how far they were from the city. It reminds me of other media that use these fears of giant human-made objects, deep sea and loneliness. - The ship in Little Nightmares, you're tiny and it's giant, makes scary echoing metal sounds, is surrounded by unwelcoming water, and if you fall, no one will notice, no one will save you. Life will go on. - The facility in Inside, another disturbing platform game where you are alone against evil adults. Notably that part where you hide from that mysterious shock wave generator. It's automated, unstoppable, you don't know why it's there, and it does not care if you're in its path when it sends a shock wave while you cross the bridge. - The short movie Curve, where a woman wakes up sitting uncomfortably on some mysterious gigantic metal structure, on the brink of falling into the abyss. - Real life events: OceanGate's submersible that imploded kilometers deep in the ocean so close to the Titanic, with no human remains found. - That student who jumped off a cruise ship as a dare in 2023, at night, in a shark-infested ocean, never found, as the gigantic ship kept moving forward at high speed.

11:56 after 10 to 12 years i think the six paths of pain could build all that like they have super human strength and speed they individually are a 100 man construction crew so like 600 expert construction workers with a small village too help too they totally have that now the resources on the other hand idk how they got all that metal

[@HonkaiHistory]

Nagato used Akatsuki as mercenaries, probably making a ton of money by basicly selling the strengh to determine the outcome of whole armed conflicts. If you combine that with a country, where it rains a ton, which is basicly free energy if you put turbines in all those drainining pipes, you get all resources needed for rapid development. As for the amount of workers required: I don't know whats the population of the village, so it's hard to make guesses, but I think pains powers and in general ninja powers likely played a role in it. I mean certain kekkai genkais such as wood style can create multistory buildings in a few seconds. So I wouldnt be surprised if someone like pain, who has control over all 5 base elements and control over the paths, including a mecha path and a path that can summon the king of hell, which can restore and create things, would have access to abilities to accellarate things alot. Lastly, I think that this is a bit like the situation in n. korea, where Nagato wants his country to appear properous and rich to the other nations after what they have done to it, so he starts to overcompensate and builds multiple high tech looking skyscrapers, the bigger the better, even though the majority of them are empty because the population hasn't grown that fast yet.

As a huge connoisseur of cyberpunk anime and aesthetics, the village hidden in the rain definitely does look a lot like the Ghost in the Shell universe. This village in particular looks specifically like a city in ghost in the Shell movie INNOCENCE called Northern Frontier. I truly believe Kishimoto got inspired from this. If ya’ll want to see exactly what I mean look up Ghost in the Shell 2 parade. Pretty dope tbh. Also, in the last few seconds of that ghost in the Shell parade sequence there’s a tower with a dragon statue, I am almost certain that kishimoto took inspiration from that too, and replaced that dragon with the weird face with the tongue sticking out, I’d bet money on it lol.

considering the weather a lot of pipes make sense the buildings would be designed to channel the torrents as water will eventually erode everything it touches for example buildings and gutters even when you drink fresh rain water there are trace amounts of metals and ceramics from tiles and gutters in the water the torrents may also be channeled through turbines to run generators so having a steady power supply would also boost technological advancement, just a few thoughts.

I have conspiracy theory that secretly probably Dr.Vegapunk just accidentaly teleported into naruto verse but unfortunately he transfered into amegakure zone, so he basically get kidnapped then helping Nagato to build that city and any technology with limited resources in several times, the reason why he wants to help nagato is because not only he feel empathy to entire amegakure situation and fulfill his passion to build and develop something new from zero but its also he doesn't want to die because Nagato could kill him at any time he want if Dr.Vegapunk doesn't want to fulfill Nagato demand and ransom

i really liked the jiraya vs pain fight in the hidden rain, the aestethic is very cool and different from all the other fighting spots. Its one of the absolute top fights in my opinion.

[@momtchilboshniakov290]

my headcannon is that the more modern style cities were more likely to collapse from earth jutsu, so highrise buildings were seen as more easy to destroy and were actively avoided by ninja villages. and the rest of the world is simply normally not rich enough to pay for teh amount of ciment nessesary to build these types of buildings.

[@Apoc_Bone_Daddy]

My absolute favorite aesthetic of ALL the villages

8:50 Nagato became the hokage?!

[@axcenomega]

8:10 the explanation you clicked on this video for

[@Akira_Katsuro]

its really strange how the rain village is almost empty when it is shown and a lot of the cities with modern buildings are also empty. Maybe Togashi thought of Naruto as being post apocalyptic but just didn't develop that.

[@StarKushExoticGalaxy]

I'd live here if i was in this world, or maybe the cloud, mist or sound village

[@azeridevelopswebsites]

Interesting concept

"They are not that bad they are cyberpunk" Oh sweet sumerschild

[@It_is_Just_Will]

A bit late here for the Show but, have you heard of "Kowloon Walled City" Incredibly impressive and 100% an inspiriration for the whole Rain Village Stuff

[@dawnraxplays2706]

another reasen they dont build skyscrapers and tall hightech buildings in the 5 great ninja villages is cause of their ninja too....a majority of the ninja populace in a village usually rooftop hop to get from A to B in the village if they had unbelievable tall buildings then rooftop hopping becomes much harder to impossible which makes travel time higher in their village which can also equate to the ninja taking longer to respond to threats and emergencies within their villages

[@b-lotus5145]

2:37 911 Joke? lmao

[@kirayo69]

It can be possible the piping is exterior instead of interior, pain fought Jiraiya in the sewer, storm drain and/or a water utility, it gives me “It” the clown vibes lol

[@umdadvocate]

Look at how much space they have, for the population they have. When you *can’t* build outward, you have to build upward (and underground)

[@Nimrod336]

You got that wrong, war brings technology. Its almost the whole driving force behind every thing we have today in irl

[@KyubiBubi]

Yeah, for the major parties involved in the war - not for those who have theie land ravaged and made a battle field even though they have nothing to do with the war.

[@drowning.macaco]

The rain village kinda reminds me of south korea

[@NarutoUzumaki-yr1wm]

Hey Dr. Vegapunk the real Void Century is here!!!!

[@day_break360]

Well all those pipes are probably an large irrigation system because unlike the real world the rain village never stops raining

[@NdengangDilan]

The pipes in the rain village is filled with water 💧. Pain always make it rain so that he would know everything going on in the village so those pipes absorbs the water so that the village does not become a sea

[@victordiogenes7131]

You're clearly putting much more thought into this series than Kishimoto ever did 😂

[@eavyeavy2864]

Your comment will never go viral

[@TurboJesus]

I think the pipes are… perhaps… to drain the rain that’s constantly falling… there’s a reason it’s the rain village.

[@fluffernutter6633]

Nagato is why the Rain village is so advanced, all the other villages have secret power disputes occurring 24/7. Nagato is the only ruler within the Rain village, he is the sole leader and voice and he's a benevolent ruler. 'Boruto' shows the Leaf village under similar leadership.

[@burnt_cheetoss2672]

Maybe the buildings are so tall in case of a flood from all the rain? I understand it’s very likely a open area would never flood but idk it makes a bit of sense and maybe all the pipes are to funnel out the constant rain to a place it won’t puddle up and be in the way

[@WhiteMalay]

Real reason: Kishimoto makes artistic choices and never fills in the plot holes because he doesnt expect anyone to look into it deeper. Pretty evident in his writing style

[@DygoKnight]

Ya don't say

[@Rewwgh]

I feel like older futuristic anime, such as Dragon's Heaven was a huge influence on the design of the rain village. And that was the vibe Kishimoto wanted to draw/went with. Without feeling the need to elaborate on it further.

[@VintageNarwhal]

My head canon is that the pipes in the Mario games have to come through the hidden rain village to take you to wherever it spits you out in game.

[@luispaulopizzosilva7895]

One thing to consider when comparing the Rain village to the 5 major Shinobi villages is that they are not cities they are only "barracks" or HQs emwhere the "army" lived they even have the hidden in the name they were supposed to be small and only inhabted by ninjas their family and essential personnel. We don't see much but I'm sure there are many cities way bigger than the Shinobi villages.
