The universe of the anime and manga series Naruto is a home to a wide array of fictional characters. Names of Naruto characters are in Japanese order, with the family name before the given name. The English manga uses the Japanese naming order, while the English anime orders the names in the Western order, with the given name before the family name.

Names of many characters in Naruto are puns, mythical and historical references and the like. The characters themselves often borrow a bit from the story behind the name.

Katemaro Kaguya

  • Age: ? (deceased)

Katemaro Kaguya is the father of Kimimaro Kaguya. He died in the war between Kirigakure and the Kaguya clan. Not much is known about him, but he seems to have been the leader of the clan at the time.

Sansho

Sansho

Sansho (山椒, Sanshō) runs the Curry of Life shop in the River Country with her grandson Karashi. They specialize in a super-spicy form of curry that can revive anyone with a single spoonful.

Shibuki

Shibuki appears in the second Naruto OVA as the village leader of Takigakure. He is the son of the village's previous leader, who died protecting his village after drinking the hero water. It is because of his father's early demise that Shibuki is a coward. He is first seen cowering behind Sakura, while Team 7 was protecting him, after a bird flies out of nowhere and surprises him. Though his village sees him as a coward, the children of the village look up to him.

When his village was attacked by his former master upon his return, he was forced to make a terrible choice: either protect the hero water and let his villagers be killed, or give up the water which the village treasured. Naruto convinces him a hero is willing to sacrifice himself for those they care, like Shibuki's father did. He ends up drinking the hero water in an attempt to defeat his former master, but is unable to win even with the advantage. The combined efforts of Naruto and Sasuke, however, finish the job. Though the hero water can be fatal, Shibuki survives, and becomes a better leader for his people.

During episode 198, when Tsunade mentions that a training exercise will be taking place in Takigakure, a scene in the village shows Shibuki with his back turned to the camera. He is directing the other ninja present.

Temujin

Temujin appeared in the Second Movie. He encounters Naruto until residing alongside his enemy in a tribe until encountering his master, Haido. He is hunted down by both enemy and ally until fighting Haido after discovering he was the murderer of his family and home but is easily defeated. He, alongside Naruto, preforms Twin Spiraling Sphere to finish off Haido. He saves his new friends from the collapsing castle and is saved by Naruto when falling to his death. He discovers a prophecy foretold him and Naruto defeating Haido as friends. As Temujin leaves for new land, he crosses paths with his new friend, Naruto, promising to meet again.

Yugito Nii (二位ユギト, Nī Yugito) is the Cloud kunoichi who was the demon vessel of the two-tailed demon cat. She was knocked out and captured by Akatsuki, despite turning into her demon cat form to fight them. Like other hosts, she has physical features that resemble her tailed beast. In her case, her eyes are slanted and cat-like. Not much else is known about Yugito except that she has mentioned herself to be the second strongest shinobi of Kumogakure. Yugito later appears during the extraction of the two-tailed demon cat, which leads to her death.

Trivia

  • Yugito's family name, 'Nii' (二位), means 'two', a reference to the two-tailed demon cat inside of her.
