"Time for something different than bijuu.
Apparently, Kishimoto makes characters with meanings deeper than we can imagine.
Deidara is the blue-eyed, blonde character featured in the third chapter of part II, 247, that quickly gained a legion of fans of all sorts, even reaching the third place in the latest Naruto Popularity poll.

As to learn of his origin and how Kishimoto put him in paper, we can start with his most famous quote - "Art is a Bang."
This is, actually, a quote from one of the greatest artists of Japanese history - Taro Okamoto. He was famous for his modern, defying designs, and his works get a huge amount of attention even today. Kishimoto made those words come true with Deidara's fighting style - explosive artworks.

He also based Deidara's mud bomb designs on Taro's style. The first similarity we find is the "holes" in place of eyes.




Note that back in the days, his works were criticized a bit due to it's strangeness, or exquisite design. Deidara gets the same reactions in the manga, counterattacking with the words "Strange things? Heh, no wonder stupid people can't understand art."

More importantly than that, though, is Taro Okamoto's most famous piece of art, 太陽の塔 (Sun Tower/Pagoda), later made as a monument standing over 70m tall.


I sure bet you've seen this shape before!

That's right: Deidara's Specialty n.18, with the oh-so special C3 Chakra... was based on the "Sun Tower"!




Deidara activates his mud bombs with chakra, transforming them from small sculptures to bigger, moving clay bombs.

Deidara's "Activation" of the specialty nº 18 is pratically how Taro created his work: A small sculpture, to be later transformed in this huge monument you just stared at.

The symbolism of the "Sun Tower" is represented when Deidara drops the specialty - a bright light shines all over Sunagakure no Sato.



Cool uh?

Deidara's Name Symbolism
Deidara's name actually leads to an animal!
All the akatsuki names lead to animals (to be covered later.)

Deidara's name is derived from the myth of Deidarabocchi (sometimes Daidarabocchi), the story of a giant that changed/created/did whatever to mountains.
When designing it's english counterpart, we came up with an element in a totally different myhtology: Titans.

"The Titans, also known as the elder gods, ruled the earth before the Olympians overthrew them. The ruler of the Titans was Cronus who was de-throned by his son Zeus. Most of the Titans fought with Cronus against Zeus and were punished by being banished to Tartarus. During their rule the Titans were associated with the various planets. "

Deidarabocchi relates strongly to Greece's giant's branch of the Titans God Family, to an extent of bringing many similarities.
Titans' symbolism means "prominent figure". Where does that fit?
Apparently, aside from the "giant" legend, for Deidei to suddently appear, capture Gaara of the Desert without his death while threatening to destroy the entire village, made him a "very" prominent person, indeed. There is more to the Titans symbolism, though.

It's said that the Titans were the child of Uranus (Heaven god) with Gaea (Earth Goddess). All were famous gods.
The similarity: Deidara's clay (symbolizing earth) and crafted birds used for aerial battling (symbolizing heaven) are, most probably, derived from there.

Deidei's name/jutsus/appearance leads to an animal.
People thought this pattern of all the Akatsuki member's names referring to animals was over since Deidara and Zetsu came into appearance, but Deidara actually refers to a carnivorous pre-historic bird over 250cm tall, that competed with other mammals as one of the best predators that lived in South America. The name is Titanis, related from the Titans symbolism. Which is shown as...




Deidara's famous "Chocobo"! The pre-historic version couldn't fly, though -it had powerful claws and legs, and a very strong beak (reference to Gaara's capture) to compensate on catching his prey. Deidara's eye also resembles of that bird's slightly, making him even in the Akatsuki names theory (to be covered later, as I said).

Deidara's name and his little spiders coincidence

Strangely enough, the name of the mini clay spiders would be dai(big)+Tarantula (in katakana), usually abbreviated in Daitara - which leads to Daidara, and finally Deidara.

And here ends the symbolism. Enjoy the read, un! "
