PART III
Haku
Haku is Zabuza’s trainee and most trusted companion. He is an exile from the Hidden Mist Village and he has a very powerful advanced bloodline.
Because of the many civil wars in the Hidden Mist Village, the advanced bloodlines are hated. When Haku’s father found out that Haku and his mother possessed an advanced bloodline, he tried to kill them. He managed to kill Haku’s mother, but Haku survived and killed him instead.
After killing his father, Haku realized that he was unwanted. He didn’t have any reason to exist. Haku wandered the streets homeless and alone, but that changed when he met Zabuza. Zabuza was also an outcast of the Hidden Mist Village and he wanted revenge. In Haku he saw a tool with which he could carry out his vengeance.
Haku was extremely happy he had finally found a reason to live. He had finally found someone who loved him for his abilities, instead of hating him because of them. Haku was determined to give his life to Zabuza. He told him, “I am Zabuza-san’s weapon… please keep me by your side as your tool.”
Haku is an expert in acupuncture, and his weapons of choice are senbon. With his advanced bloodline, Haku is able to control water. His most powerful jutsu is the Demonic Ice Mirrors. This makes Haku a very talented and powerful ninja, who even surpasses Zabuza.
HARUNO, Sakura
Sakura is on the same team as Naruto and Sasuke, so another one of Kakashi's students. Altough she's one of the main characters in the series, she plays a more supportive part in the beginning. When we see her, basically things get focused on her love for Sasuke. But as the storylines continues she adventually gets strongers too. She's a very smart student, and graduated from the academy with top grades. She has a perfect control over her Chakra, but lacks the will to become an excellent ninja. She has no unique skills, nor do we see her do any training in the series. But Kakashi do said that she has some skill in genjutsu. So if we would have to expect Sakura learning new skills, it'll probably be in that area.
She has quite a history with Ino too. Sakura is somebody who got picked on because of here wide forehead when she was little. Ino was one of her first friends, and said if she didn't hide her forehead so much, she wouldn't get picked on whole the time. She also said 'Sakura, you will bloom into a beautiful flower one day.'. From that day on, they became best friends.
But the day Sakura told Ino she was in love with Sasuke too, she also said to Ino that from that day on they couldn't be friends anymore. Now they're rivals who compete over Sasuke's attention and love. Now when Sakura meets Ino, it's more like 'Ah, Ino-Pig...'. But as the series continues, Sakura undergoes some changes. Her obsession on Sasuke will lessen, and her respect towords the "not-so-cool" group like Naruto and Lee will grow. But not only will she gain some some respect towards other people. She also gets a little envious, and remembers that she should also try her best, too.
HATAKE, Kakashi
Kakashi is the sensei of Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. He is known as 'the Copy Ninja Sharingan Kakashi' all over the world, and it is rumored that he has memorized over 1000 jutsu.
At first glance you would never guess Kakashi is a very powerful jounin. He’s very relaxed and sometimes even somewhat slow. He also loves to read his romantic (or is it dirty?) book ‘Come Come Paradise’. However, in this case, appearances can be deceiving. Kakashi is known throughout the world as a formidable adversary and he was an apprentice of the Fourth Hokage.
Kakashi is a very good but very strict teacher. Prior to Naruto’s team, he had never allowed any of the teams he was to teach become genins. He uses the same teaching methods the Third and Fourth Hokages used, and he emphasizes teamwork above all else. He feels that someone who does not understand teamwork is not worthy of becoming a ninja.
Kakashi has a sharingan in only one of his eyes. This is unusual because normally sharingan affects both eyes. The most likely explanation for this is that it was surgically implanted.
The sharingan gives Kakashi a huge advantage in battle. He is able to read and copy his opponents moves with it. Almost all of Kakashi’s moves are copied from other ninjas. The only exception is the Chidori. The Chidori is Kakashi’s sole original technique.
HOSHIGAKI, Kisame
Hoshigaki Kisame was introduced alongside Uchiha Itachi, as a fellow member of the dreaded Akatsuki.
Not much is currently known about Kisame, other than his past affiliation with Momochi Zabuza in Hidden Mist's Seven Legendary Swordsmen group. He has a freakish personality and an equally freakish appearance.
He has a terrifying sword he calls Samehada, which sucks up Chakra being built inside the body, and rather than slicing it's intended victim, it rips them apart like the teeth of a shark.
He loves to fight, and was eager to fight Asuma, Kurenai, and Gai, but was disappointed when Itachi ordered a retreat. He is fearless, and not afraid to use his Samehada liberally. Truly someone to be cautious of, if not terrified of.
HYUGA, Hiashi
Hiashi is the leader of the Hyuga clan's main house and has two daughter, Hinata and Hanabi. He feels guilty for the death of his twin brother, Hizashi (Neji’s father), who gave his life for him.
On the day, the long war between the Leaf and the Cloud Village ended, and a peace treaty was made. Someone tried to kidnap Hinata and steal the Byakugan's secrets. The kidnapper was spotted, and easily taken care of by Hiashi. The kidnapper was the Cloud Village's head ninja. It's then when The Cloud accused the Leaf from breaking the peace treaty, and demanded Hiashi's body. It's obvious that the Cloud went to the Leaf Village with the intent to steal and reveal the secrets of the Byakugan all along.
But the Leaf, not wanting to risk another war, didn't decline their demand right away. And hosted a meeting with Hyuga. Hiachi agreed to the matter, and was willing to die for the sake of the Leaf Village. But just when he was about to, Hizashi interfered.
Hizashi wanted to go instead, so that the Byakugan's secrets wouldn't be revealed. (The curse seal casted upon all Branch House members seals the Byakugan ability upon death.) But the real reason why he wanted to give his life, wasn't because he was a branch family member(protectors of the main house), and Hiashi was a member of the main house. No, he hated and detested the main house of Hyuga. He did it to protect Neji, his family, and his village, ...to save his brother.
Just once, he wanted to go against the destiny of Hyuga. He said he just got urge to choose his own destiny, make his own dicision and choose his own death. To choose freedom, that's all.
Ever since that event Hiashi has felt guilty for the death of his younger brother. He only tells Neji what really happened to his father, when he was old enough to understand. This was right after Neji lost the fight against Naruto in the chuinin examn. Hiashi gave Neji a letter written by Hizashi, adressed to his son. He then kneels down before Neji and begged for forgiveness.
HYUGA, Hinata
Hyuga Hinata is part of the family branch of the Hyuga clan, and is the daughter of Hyuga Hiashi Nejis uncle. She is very shy towards people and has a very low self esteem. She has a huge crush on Naruto in the anime and is pretty much always Secretly encouraging him through his trials when she witnesses him.
Hinata also seems to not really want to be a ninja at all but she goes along and is very obedient to people. She would seem better off doing home type of activities then fighting and in time the show may put her in a more of a 'house’ wife position.
HYUGA, Neji
Hyuga Neji is considered the strongest and most talented of all genin. He is a member of the Hyuga Clan and masters Hyuga Style TaiJutsu, the most powerfull Leaf Village TaiJutsu style.
Neji is a true genius and he knows it all to well. He is very confident (maybe even to confident) of himself and thinks he knows everything. Neji strongly believes that destiny is something one cannot control: it is given to you at birth and not even hard work can change it. Fully confident of himself, Neji is able to mentally destroy his less confident opponents just by talking to them.
On top of all this Neji really is an incredibly talented ninja. The combination of the Byakugan, Hyuga Style TaiJutsu and the Opening Point Attacks is perfect, and the fact that Neji has already fully mastered those techniques makes him a genius among geniuses.
INUZUKA, Kiba
Kiba is part of the Inuzuka clan which specialize in beast type of attacks and pairing up with other animals to successfully complete their missions. Kiba is a very strong character but at the same time still is a soft character who cares for his friends.
Kiba fights with his partner Akamaru the faithful dog who willingly abides by the commands Kiba sets forth for him, the 2 are a devastating duo who cause considerable amounts of damage to the enemies. When we first see them fight as 1 is when they are pit up against Naruto in the Pre-fights for the chuunin exam, their strength together was enough to cause considerable damage to Naruto, but their weakness is their heightened sense of smell, which enhances all smells 1000 times that of its original smell.
Personality wise Kiba seems to be very caring for his comrades and at the same time can be a jerk, this makes Kiba become more of a variable character of the series, not so much has really been released about Kiba thus far, though in time there will be a more in tuned and more integrated part of Kiba in the series.
