Naruto Character for the Day
Our Naruto Character of the Day ------------ Shikamaru Nara ---------
Shikamaru Nara ( Nara Shikamaru) is a ninja from Konohagakure. He is a member of Team 10 led by Asuma Sarutobi along with his teammates Choji Akimichi and Ino Yamanaka.
Shikamaru's most distinctive character trait is that he finds all women bossy and "troublesome." The women he most finds troublesome and annoying are Temari, his mom Yoshino, and his teammate, Ino. When Shikamaru questioned his father why he would marry such a domineering woman, his father responded that Shikamaru's mother has a kind smile. He told Shikamaru that even the toughest woman will show her gentle side to the man she loves.
To further emphasize his personality, Shikamaru is regularly seen with lazy or irritated expression. He has fairly long black hair tied in a spiky ponytail and narrow brown eyes.His attire was rather plain with wearing his forehead protecter around his left arm. he has grown noticeably taller. He has also gone under a costume change, sporting a different undershirt and pants, and changing his earrings from rings to studs, though the placement of his headband is the same place, however the metal plate is now directly attached to his sleeve instead of having a headband pinned to it.
Shikamaru is a very skilled ninja whose most noticeable trait is his IQ of over 200. Even back in his days as a Genin, he was easily seen as one of the more perceptive characters in the series. That's also how he became a Chunin before anyone else in his class. Asuma noted that he is beyond genius and probably the smartest ninja of his generation. Although back in the academy his marks were "almost as bad as Naruto's" on account of him being too lazy to lift his pencil to take notes and dozing off during exams.
During the timeskip, Shikamaru has also developed in fighting skill, became visibly stronger than he was in Part I, as seen when he was able to launch a surprise attack on Hidan which almost slashed the immortal's neck halfway through. In the anime, Shikamaru also displayed the capacity to use summoning scrolls in conjunction with his shadow-based techniques; such as summoning an instant pool of water to counter Kakuzu's lightning attacks.
It can also be said that Shikamaru is very skillful at dodging attacks, as seen in his unfinished but nevertheless "won" battle against Temari. This is most prominently seen in the first part of Naruto when he evades all three of Tayuya's Doki Demons, and later in Shippūden when he evades the Akatsuki members Kakuzu and Hidan. Shikamaru and Kakashi evade Kakuzu's fire mask attack unharmed while his partners, Ino and Choji, barely tumble out of the way.
Shikamaru displays his talents only later in the second part of the Chunin exams. His primary supporting move is the Shadow Imitation Technique. Later he learns the Shadow Neck Bind Technique which allows him to physically harm his opponent be way of a shadow hand.
After the time skip that leads into Shippūden, Shikamaru also learns the Shadow Sewing Technique. This gives him more of an offensive jutsu as his shadow can now act almost as tentacles, leaping and twisting out of the air attacking multiple targets. This was shown when he destroys Sai's ink lions and rips through Hidan's flesh. He also shows the ability to simultaneously use them in astonishing coordination, even learning to pick up Asuma's Trench Knives and fling them with stunning accuracy.
Shikamaru also inherits Asuma's trench knives after his teacher is killed. He learns to add his chakra to the knives and creates the Shadow Imitation Shuriken Technique. This allows him "pin" his shadow on an opponent without the need of the Shadow Possession Technique, giving him far greater range, flexibly, and the ability to move. When Shikamaru finally has Hidan cornered he demonstrates the Shadow Endgame Technique. This technique is essentially a shadow summoning where various tentacles quickly surround an opponent. The second part allows the user to split apart the tentacles, grabbing multiple objects to bind to the trapped victim. This is very effective when used in conjunction with exploding tags or perhaps other weapons.
