Shinra Tensei (神羅天征)
An elegant, dark obsidian and Rinnegan purple theme for Visual Studio Code, inspired by Pain / Nagato from Naruto Shippuden.
Designed around high contrast, low eye-strain, and aesthetic color harmony derived directly from the dark atmosphere of Amegakure and the iconic ripple eyes of the Rinnegan.
👁️ The Palette
Shinra Tensei uses a deep obsidian-purple canvas (#131118) that eliminates flat greys and blinding pitch blacks, paired with vivid chakra accents:
