Honestly, there's no valid reason for it to seem like Naruto could be a shigigami fanfiction. Naruto has a clear narrative arc that involves Naruto's growth as a ninja, his interactions with other characters in the ninja world, and the overarching plot of the ninja villages' relationships. Shigigami, on the other hand, has a different set of themes and motifs that are not present in Naruto.
Well, perhaps someone who is not very familiar with both might misinterpret some elements. But in reality, Naruto's ninja - based powers, such as chakra control and jutsu usage, are very different from shigigami - related concepts. Naruto's story is centered around the ninja world, its clans, and the pursuit of power and peace within that world, while shigigami has its own distinct characteristics that don't match up with Naruto at all.
One factor could be the power levels. If the fanfiction writer wants to boost Naruto's power in a new and different way, they might draw inspiration from Kaygua's power characteristics. So Naruto ends up with some traits that make him seem like Kaygua.
No. Naruto is its own unique and original manga and anime series. It has its own distinct world, characters, and storylines that are completely different from the concept of shigigami fanfiction. Naruto is set in a ninja - themed world with elements like chakra, jutsus, and different ninja clans, which have no relation to shigigami concepts.
The heroic deeds of the characters. Just like knights, Naruto and his friends perform brave acts to protect their village. And the love stories, like Naruto's love for Hinata, are like the romances knights might have in a castle setting.
Honestly, there's no valid reason to think Harry Potter could be Beetlejuice fanfiction. The Harry Potter series has a deep lore that is firmly rooted in the wizarding world, from the creation of the Philosopher's Stone to the fight against Voldemort. Beetlejuice has its own wacky and unique story that has no relation to the magical institutions and events in Harry Potter. It's just a completely baseless idea that has no real elements to support it.
A story might seem true when it incorporates common human experiences and emotions. If the story's conflicts and resolutions are something people can imagine happening in real life, that helps too. And good research or knowledge of the subject matter can make it more convincing.
There's really no good reason for it to be misconstrued as such. They are completely different. Maybe someone who is very confused about different fictional universes might make such a strange claim, but there are no elements in Harry Potter that could realistically be related to Autobots.
On one hand, 'Shantaram' seems like it could be fact because it has elements that are based on real places and cultures. The author's in - depth knowledge of Mumbai's underworld, its people, and its culture is evident. But on the other hand, the highly dramatized events and the almost superhuman abilities of the main character suggest that it is fiction. For instance, the main character gets involved in all sorts of dangerous and complex situations and always manages to come out on top in a rather unbelievable way, which is a common trait in fictional stories.
The unpredictable plot. One minute Percy could be at Camp Half - Blood training, and the next he's thrown into a life - threatening quest. That's chaos.
The use of Greek mythology makes it seem so. It's like taking the old and making it new. Just as fanfiction does with existing works.
The backstories. The Marauders' backstories are so rich and intertwined with Harry's world. For example, Remus Lupin being a werewolf and his relationship with the other Marauders. Also, the fact that Harry inherits the Marauders' Map. All these things create a connection that gives it a fanfiction - like feel.
