Talk:Yūkimaru

Just for the record: his name is. He's definately a boy, as he uses the masculine first-person pronoun and his name ends in the masculine name suffix. Kabuto doesn't use for him, though. He doesn't use any honorific for him.

His seiyū is.

literally means "ghost," but is also a homophone to the Japanese word for. His name is very similar to that of Orochimaru's current body,. Yūkimaru's appearance is very similar to that of the former Jinchūriki of the Three-Tailed Beast. --ShounenSuki 23:35, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Ahhh, where do you get all this information @____@ but anyway, thank you very much. I also thought that, he's got purple eyes too like this Jinchuuriki. But he hasn't got the same hair neither has he the same clothes or weapons. But since the arc is about the Three Tails I'm pretty sure he might be the Jinchuuriki.--Shinsaku 00:00, 27 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I simply checked the episode and used my Japanese language skills ^^
 * I don't believe Yūkimaru is supposed to be the Three-Tails Jinchūriki, by the way. The differences are too great. However, given their similarities (same eye colour, hair colour, similar facial structure) it is very likely they are, in fact, related. --ShounenSuki 00:04, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I believe he is though. What I believe is something happens either during this arc, or possibly just before capture, Yūkimaru either had the Jinchuuriki inside him, or simply the fact he could control the Sanbi means he is the Jinchuuriki. After all, we don't even know everything about Jinchuuriki. It is possible some don't necessarily have them inside themselves, or at least perhaps not the case with the Three Tails.

Info from TV Tokyo
Here's the translation of his article on http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/naruto/chara.html

 A boy living in Orochimaru's hideout. Despite being all alone in the world, his friendly smile cannot be removed. His speech and conduct leave behind a wondrous atmosphere anywhere he goes. After meeting Naruto in an unusual incident, they have a brief exchange, but... His trademark camellia flowers seems to hold some specific reason. As a matter of fact, Yūkimaru has the power to control the Three-Tails, which is why Orochimaru experiments with him. He is the key to this story.
