The source of this village's name is the third databook. Omnibender - Talk 15:16, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Yugakure in anime, chapter 91
Recently in the filler anime chapter 91, Naruto and Jiraiya have entered to a village where the screen shows a welcome sign that says Yu no Sato (湯の里) or Hot Springs Village. Arguably this is the same village, since Yugakure no Sato (湯隠れの里) it's no longer a "Hidden" (隠れ) Village and now relies on Hot Springs tourism, and I don't think there are two Hot Springs Villages into Naruto World. In fact, I think anime producers took the idea from the Yugakure info in databook. Shouldn't this (current name Yu no Sato former Yugakure, and its apparition in anime) be mentioned in this article?

 * I made a quick check and you're in a way correct. The sign says.
 * Instead of writing, they wrote . Since shinobi villages are called , the change implies a shift in emphasis. From being a hidden village places among hot springs to being a hot spring village that is hidden.
 * However, I wouldn't take this as an official change in name. The third databook also never implies a name change. A note about this would be nice, but we shouldn't change the article name or anything. --ShounenSuki 11:30, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Yu
Just wondering, could Yu a possible short name for Yugakure, like Konoha is for Konohagakure? I haven't been researching to see if this nickname is actually used, I'm just wondering. ~Hakinu (talk 08:52, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, "Yu" is a valid abbreviation for Yugakure (albeit a bit awkward). Hidan's profile in the third databooks uses it when it refers to Yugakure as . --ShounenSuki (talk 21:20, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
