Choji Akimichi Character Guide
Who Is Choji Akimichi?
Choji Akimichi is a member of Konohagakure 's Akimichi Clan. Though sensitive about his weight, Chōji is nevertheless dedicated to his friends, especially in Team Asuma. Chōji was born into the Akimichi clan, and is slated to become the Sixteenth Head of the Akimichi after his father, Chōza. When Chōji was younger, he was often put down for not being good at a child's game called " Ninja ", which appears to be a cross between tag and hide and seek, often employing the use of shuriken made out of cardboard and sticks.
Choji Akimichi’s Role in Naruto
His peers would always berate him, telling him that any team that he was on was bound to lose. One day, they simply refused to let him play at all. However, Shikamaru Nara stuck up for him, saying that the teams would be uneven if Chōji didn't join them.
Personality, Abilities, and Story Impact
This gave Chōji a little hope, although, in the end, they still refused to let him play. Chōji and his father were later seen talking on the roof of a building while Chōji was still upset over the way he was treated by the other children, saying the Akimichi were all fat and stupid. Comforting him, his father told him that few people have a heart as kind and caring as his, and one day he would meet someone who would see that in him and respect him for it, and that eventually they would be the best of friends.
