How modern Konoha looks like
Themes: Steampunk, School, War, Politics


A brief intro

Welcome everyone! I'm Indra and after training with my beloved master, Inkarnate. I've become driven to establish a Naruto RP once more despite the failures that all of us met in the past. I am here to present you Kakumei, a Naruto RP that depicts an amalgam of the Boruto generation and the Naruto generation, basically: Traditionalism vs Modernism. Take note, that this RP is a complete AU, meaning concepts are re-imagined but not too deviating. You're all welcome to share ideas.

My goal here is to convey what balance means, and relating it to our society today; most of what we see lost its essence and value, a shell of its former glory. Most martial arts today do not have its essential value, all it does is commercialize and be a cash cow, and looking deeper in that concept applies in this RP: Shinobi may be decreasing yet the majority of them today are nothing more than commercialized bastards who live the luxuries of industrialism. A true Shinobi is selfless and knows what is self sacrifice, instead of the complacent and selfish pricks they are now, just as what Itachi have said: "A true Shinobi does not set out to seek self glory, a true shinobi protects peace within the shadows, even if it means being hated."

The theme that I'd also like to re-establish here is "Talent vs Hard-work", which by the way is ignored in Shippuden. There will be geniuses and weak rising to become strong. You will be playing characters alike, and portray them to the full. But Indra, what about the bigger problems like Uchihas, Bijuu and all that stuff? Trust me on this. I have taken care of all those with my Co-GMs.

Originally, this was an RP meant for four people only, the creators ourselves, but hey we all are busy, except me lol, I am more flexible these days. However, I'd like to give it a test, I may or may not connect it to the supposed version. They currently do not have a part in this RP, but I do credit them for their hardwork in helping me make this. My goal here is to test out this Naruto RP we have established, 6 months in the making.

What are our roles? First and foremost, our characters live in a world where ninja are not only declining because of modernization but also because of the widespread of Ninjutsu. The first arc will have everyone as academy students. Even though your characters have graduated from the Academy, there will be times that they will go back to the academy to further enhance their professions which is what is shown in the Boruto Anime/Manga. I will explain further what is the ninjutsu curriculum.

So, have I piqued your interests? Jump in the water, it's great.




The Official Kakumei-verse Lore

How Konoha looked like after the Second Shinobi War

The Sage of Six Paths and the birth of an organized militant civilization; the ninja and the samurai. Almost everyone in this world knows about the tale of the messiah that saved mankind from the corrupted one, but as humanity progress, will they deviate from the commandments of the Sage? It is indeed evident that men strayed from the teachings of the Sage, they have diverted their attention on worldly desires and ridiculed the heavens as history repeats itself. Perhaps the birth of scientific ninja tools is the living proof that causes men to fall apart, and as we look back, the world we knew before and compared to now, marks an end of an era. Many are called but few are chosen, not all who call upon the heavens will be answered by the Sage, but those who have heart for him shall not perish but witness a wonderful sight that men's eyes cannot fathom.








The Former Uchiha Hideout, being constructed as an extended land of Konoha
Notice how I made definite changes? Here are the following:

  • The Senju-Uchiha petty curse of hatred ended with our version of Madara and Hashirama. Which means, the Uchiha will not have a lot of wank. It's resolved now.
  • The 10 tails is retconned. Instead, we have the 9 Tailed Beasts worshiped as deities. They are buffed, and a Jinchuuriki is possible, and these 9 beings have a human form, they are "gods slash youkai" after all. In a nutshell, I am going full Japan here.
  • The curse of hatred or should I say, the curse of the fox. Same thing. Indra was cursed to have the sharingan, he's not born with it in this AU, hence we got Uchihas being a cursed clan. In spite of the curse's lifting, the hatred angst part is gone as it ended with our version of Mads and Hashi, but it really depends on how you awaken the sharingan. A blessing or a curse? Take your pick, you can awaken it with positive or negative feelings.
  • The Uchiha problem is solved. One Mangekyou Sharingan technique per Uchiha, and sharingan is nerfed. It does not allow you to 100% copy and master a technique, instead, an Uchiha must understand it first,in order to replicate and once replicated, it's weaker than the original. The Uchihas are immune to visual genjutsu but not sound genjutsu or any other forms of genjutsu that is not visual. They can, however, break each other out of it by simple sharingan genjutsu cancelling like what Itachi and Sasuke did against Kabuto. The Mangekyou Sharingan still makes you blind, and require EMS to not go blind. DO NOT ASK ME FOR SUCH THINGS unless I deem so.
  • A truth I like to lay out here. Sharingan is basically a diluted version of the Rinnegan. However, Rinnegan is not obtainable in this RP. I as a GM, is eligible and have every right to use it for plot purposes.
  • Also, I want some Hyuuga action. We're not getting any reincarnation of the Sage's sons nor the Tenseigan. Trust me, most of us are veteran players, I strongly believe that you all know what are the do's and don'ts.


In all honesty, I think that's what most problems of every Naruto RP. Uchihas and Tailed Beasts. So yeah, I got it covered. What about chakra science, like the scientific ninja tools? They are present, but it won't be a factor here. THINK Legend of Korra. OHH... the setting is definitely in Konoha but that doesn't mean we'll be stuck there.

Our Focus:
  • Character Development. Be willing to develop characters realistically.
  • Collaborative Environment. Be willing to share ideas and work together as a team.




Academia System




As per Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, the school system is both advanced yet unfair, IC-wise, our characters will undergo the Ninjutsu Curriculum even after the graduation. That is because, smarts are highly valued by the modern day standard, also to to put up with the modern era, pretty much things are commercialized and cash cowed, your character would be lucky if he or she is from a clan because they teach their techniques for free. Those who do not belong to a clan suffer the short end of the stick with the tuition fees that are high and all, but scholarship takes care of that. To put it this way, the generation today is completely different from the old generation, like how water used to be free, now we burn our money to buy water in spite of the rising price value. I will have the full explanation in the following hider:





This section is for world building, I'd like to credit Odin and Savato. Upon making Kakumei RP, I remembered the good times we had, this is my way of paying tribute to their works. Clearly, this RP may be the spiritual successor of Naruto: Road to Ninja RP.
Most Inner Parts of Konoha, further down the horizon lies the Financial District

With the growing populations there was a call for an economical district, an area rich with skyscrapers, offices and large shopping malls to contrast the small traditional shops in Smalltown. And as a result Moneylanes appeared, funded and constructed by the Kaminarimon Corporation.

The Financial District is located at the inner most parts of the village, as seen in the picture, it indeed depicts the busy life of Konoha Citizens.

The small and bustling streets offer many shops, many of which are owned by the noble families. Some of the stores are catered to Shinobi, such as Kaminarimon's Shinobi Superstore - Buy your senbon launcher today, and get a 50% discount! Ahem. Yes, there's plenty of commercials and hanging boards everywhere - a hazard for shinobi who are looking to get around the financial district quickly by jumping above the streets. Besides the obvious financially aimed buildings located in skyscrapers and covered shopping malls, there's some noteworthy buildings here such as the Red Sands Opera and Theater, located in the Southeast of the district.

Notable Places




H A I B A R A


It's core members, it's leader in the middle. Of course, the main villains of the story.


The very group that believes in the teachings of the truth. Haibara detests the current ways of society; so to say, they are the old order of Shinobi and Samurai who did not abandon the old ways. Scattered on the face of the ninja world, Haibara are basically everywhere, gathering followers who do as well hates the current system of society, they will gather their forces and kill those wannabe ninjas/samurais but spare those who are deemed worthy.

The Rules



  • Graduating Student (10-12 years old). They will be promoted to Genin at the end of the first arc. Calm down and do not worry!
  • Monopolization of present clans. I don't want custom clan creations. Please give depth to the pre-existing clans like Hatake etc.
  • I want a good backstory. It's okay to take inspiration of your favorite characters, just don't outright copy them.
  • Time and Effort. Don't do long ass collabs without my permission. I can let you scott free if it is: Birthdays, Family Issues, School Issues. I am generous enough to temporarily close the RP on holidays and special occasions.
  • Characterization. Show me why your character is this and that, and their motivations.
  • Write decently. Our English is not perfect, but please show effort.
  • I won't further elaborate the do's and don'ts of every Naruto RP. I expect most of you who will be joining, already knows of it. I will reinforce if things are out of hand.
  • 3 Prodigies. I will have it as 1 prodigy per team. I don't want exact copies of Sasuke and Neji.
  • For the sake of argument. I will open one Uchiha character slot.


Here's the CS


P.S We live under the 6th Hokage's era. This is a Naruto AU, and with my Uchiha fetish, the current Hokage is an Uchiha. We live under an era where even though its peaceful, illegal activities are high af.

Everyone can have my discord. I know most of you do.

Absolutely interested, I like the twist on the world and the self-awareness of Shippuden's slip-ups. Sign me up.

EDIT: I could also be a Co-GM depending on what you need help with. The last I saw of Naruto was near the end of the manga (the last ~50 or so chapters I'd like to say), and can try to catch up to Naruto and Boruto before the RP begins if need be to refresh myself.
