The Promise/Characters: Difference between revisions

Line 19:

* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]

* [[Red Baron]]: He's still Konoha's Yellow Flash, folks.

* [[Spam Attack]]: He uses the [[Teleport Spam|Hiraishin]] more than a hundred times during the fight with Madara, combining it with [[~~Everythings~~ Better With Spinning|the Rasengan]] and even inventing a new variation of the latter on the spot.

* [[Spam Attack]]: He uses the [[Teleport Spam|Hiraishin]] more than a hundred times during the fight with Madara, combining it with [[Everything's Better With Spinning|the Rasengan]] and even inventing a new variation of the latter on the spot.

* [[Stepford Smiler]]: When dealing with people he really doesn't like. His "public smile" has been known to send people into fits of terror because of the sheer uncertainty of what he's thinking. And with someone as dangerous as he is, ''you don't want to be kept guessing about that''. It doesn't help that he's usually broadcasting killing intent at the same time.

Line 68:

* [[Urban Legend Love Life]]: Thanks to a rumor started by Obito.

* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: With Obito, sometimes.

* [[White Haired Pretty Boy]]: Played up and for laughs--Obito started distributing photos of an unmasked Kakashi whenever he needed to blackmail him.

* [[Warrior Poet]]

Line 127:

* [[Ditzy Genius]]: He can be pretty slow about some things, such as interpersonal interactions, but he's not a bad kid and is an excellent strategist if called upon.

* [[Hair of Gold]]

* [[Highly Visible Ninja]]: Except for the bell test, when he knew he was going to be up against Kakashi of all people, Naruto likes wearing orange all the time.

* [[Highly-Visible Ninja]]: Except for the bell test, when he knew he was going to be up against Kakashi of all people, Naruto likes wearing orange all the time.

* [[The Hyena]]: Like his mother, he's often found laughing hysterically at one thing or another.

* [[Idiot Hero]]: Less so than in canon, but he still has that odd tendency to rush into things without thinking.

Line 146:

* [[Mega Manning]]: Once he activates his Sharingan.

* [[Playing With Fire]]: He never learns the Chidori here--instead, he picks up Obito's not-Rasengan variant.

* [[Red Oni Blue Oni]]: Blue to Naruto's Red.

* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Blue to Naruto's Red.

Line 209:

* [[Perpetual Frowner]]

* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Well over a thousand at this point.

* [[Team Dad]]

* [[White Haired Pretty Boy]]

* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]

==== Shippou ====

Line 242:

==== Sesshoumaru ====

* [[Anti Hero]]

* [[Anti-Hero]]

* [[Asskicking Equals Authority]]: He's the ruler of Byakko because he's the most powerful youkai in the entire region.

** [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: Granted, the reverse also applies.

* [[Awakening the Sleeping Giant]]: He's pretty much the most powerful neutral faction in any given conflict, even just on his own. It's generally a bad idea to annoy him, because he's capable of singlehandedly wrecking any known organization in the ''[[Naruto]]'' universe.

* [[Badass]]

* [[Berserk Button]]: Seriously, people. Stop trying to kidnap Rin. It has '''never''' ended well for the perpetrators. Including for the ''[[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu|King of Hell]]''.

* [[Person of Mass Destruction]]: Ever since he mastered the use of the [[Named Weapons|Baku]][[Infinity+1 Sword|saiga]].

* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Closer to 1,700 now.

* [[The Stoic]]: The closest he gets to ''showing an actual expression of emotion'' during the course of the story is when the Sound Four make the mistake of assuming they can slow him down. Cue [[Psychotic Smirk]] and [[Curb Stomp Battle]].

Line 274:

The oldest of the fox youkai who decide to stick around in Konoha, Nariko has a high opinion of herself when she arrives. That quickly changes once she gets some actual experience, and eventually she becomes a stronger and kinder person for it.

* [[Ambadassador]]: {{spoiler|Several years post-Madara, she finally earns this position among her peers and spends most of her time in Konoha, when she's not just being her family's [[Courier]].}}

* [[Badly Battered Babysitter]]: {{spoiler|When you're looking after [[Naruto|Naruto and Sasuke]], this kind of thing is expected. And justified.}}

* [[Badly-Battered Babysitter]]: {{spoiler|When you're looking after [[Naruto|Naruto and Sasuke]], this kind of thing is expected. And justified.}}

* [[Boobs of Steel]]: As a youkai, she constantly uses her youki to augment her physical strength, in addition to whatever abilities she has normally. And as a [[Shapeshifting Lover|kitsune]] in particular, her human form comes with a rack.

* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Again, a reference to the fact that she's a kitsune (or at least half).

Line 309:

* [[Victoria's Secret Compartment]]: She tends to keep the [[MacGuffin]] of the day in here. Along with blackmail photos, snacks, and money. It's apparently a way for her to make up for the fact that she doesn't have any pockets.

* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]

* [[When All You Have Is a Hammer]]: She can't use chakra due to the fact that she hasn't got any, so she relies on her youkai powers to keep her edge in a world full of [[Kung Fu Wizard|supernatural]] [[Instant Awesome Just Add Ninja|ninjas]].

* [[When All You Have Is a Hammer]]: She can't use chakra due to the fact that she hasn't got any, so she relies on her youkai powers to keep her edge in a world full of [[Kung Fu Wizard|supernatural]] [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Ninja|ninjas]].

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes]]: She's terrified of dogs.

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: She's terrified of dogs.

==== Haruki ====

Line 330:

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Atsuage.

* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: Well, he's a fox. More specifically, he tends to lounge around as a tiny white fox when he doesn't want to attract attention.

* [[White Haired Pretty Boy]]

* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]

** [[Multicolored Hair]]: Oddly enough, the ends of his hair tend to turn black.

* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: About three hundred.

* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Directed at Sanyu because of an ill-timed complaint on his part.

==== Sanyu ====

Youngest son of the youkai lord [[Inuyasha|Sesshoumaru]], Sanyu is a powerhouse at slightly more than two hundred years old. He's by no means the strongest of his father's children, owning a [[Healing Shiv|healing sword]] rather than his older siblings' WMD-class weapons, but he can hold his own in any fight he's been in so far. {{spoiler|Even against [[Big Bad|Madara]].}}

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: For Amaya.

* [[Brother Sister Team]]: With Amaya.

* [[Well Done Son Guy]]

* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]

* [[Youkai]]: ''Taiyoukai'', actually.

==== Amaya ====

Youngest daughter of the youkai lord [[Inuyasha|Sesshoumaru]], Amaya is the calm, composed child to Sanyu's relatively boisterous nature. She is just as powerful as her brother and, occasionally, crueler. But despite her icy demeanor, she can be kind and polite in the correct circumstances. {{spoiler|And she can take on [[Big Bad|Madara]] where even the most powerful human characters fail, despite being a full century younger than Nariko.}}

* [[Brother Sister Team]]: With Sanyu.

* [[Brother-Sister Team]]: With Sanyu.

* [[Every Girl Is Cuter With Hair Decs]]: She wears a blue ribbon in her hair.

* [[Youkai]]: Taiyoukai, just like her brother.

Line 413:

* [[Older Than She Looks]]: Technically, Yukihana is 47. This is young for a yuki-onna, and she appears to be about 22.

* [[Purple Eyes]]

* [[Raven Hair Ivory Skin]]

* [[Raven Hair, Ivory Skin]]

* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]: Yukihana, as a yuki-onna who lives alone in the middle of one of the coldest inhabitable regions in the ''[[Naruto]]'' world, is looking for someone who can live with her in those conditions. Team Seven instead convinces her to follow them to Konoha, where (upon realizing that Kakashi has a girlfriend), [[I Choose to Stay|she finds someone to stay for.]]

* [[Statuesque Stunner]]: She's about 182 cm tall, or 6'1", which makes her taller than all of the women in the story and a lot of the men.

Line 464:

* [[The Comically Serious]]

* [[Cuteness Overload]]: Her reaction to dogs, particularly Pakkun.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Mostly toward the Konoha villagers, but often [[Self Deprecation|directed toward herself]] when other targets aren't available.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Mostly toward the Konoha villagers, but often [[Self-Deprecation|directed toward herself]] when other targets aren't available.

* [[Determinator]]: She is incredibly stubborn when her mission goal is at stake.

Line 470:

* [[Not a Morning Person]]

* [[Only Known By Their Nickname]]: Kei is only the first part of her name, and she refuses to give out the rest.

* [[Rant Inducing Slight]]: Being told that she's heavy for a kunoichi, then later finding out that she weighs more than Itachi does. It's sort of like her [[Berserk Button]].

* [[Rant-Inducing Slight]]: Being told that she's heavy for a kunoichi, then later finding out that she weighs more than Itachi does. It's sort of like her [[Berserk Button]].

* [[Shock and Awe]]

Line 491:

* [[Indy Ploy]]

* [[Last Name Basis]]: It seems to be the case, at least.

* [[Last-Name Basis]]: It seems to be the case, at least.

* [[Let's Get Dangerous]]: Do not screw with the woman who has access to bombs that can disintegrate solid rock. She gets more serious as the situation gets worse.
