Kiyomi Yuki

Kiyomi Hyūga (日向 清見, Hyūga Kiyomi, née Yuki (雪)), is a kunoichi from Konohagakure’s Team 4 and is a descendant of the Yuki clan. She is the older sister of Mizuko Yuki and twin sister of Raiden Yuki. Inspired by Sakura’s desire to be more useful, she trains under her squad leader, Kaori Senju, and also Tsunade, to get better control over her chakraand learns medical ninjutsu. She later becomes widely known for her beauty and skill which earned her two nicknames "The Queen of Ice and Medics" (氷と薬の女王, Kōri to Kusuri no Joō, English TV: The Legendary Queen of  Ice and Medical Ninjutsu)" and "Konoha's Guardian Angel (木の葉の守護天使, Konoha no Shugo Tenshi, Literally Meaning: The Hidden Tree Leaf's Gaurdian Angel)". She marries Kaito Hyūga two years after the war, having two children with him.

Background
Kiyomi was born and raised in the Land of Water; she grew up in an area that had a rather cold environment. She also grew up without a father as he had died on a mission when Kiyomi and Raiden were only five years old. Instead, Kiyomi grew up with her younger sister, Mizuko, her twin brother, Raiden, and her mother, Mizu Yuki. She also grew up with a close bond with her two older cousins, Aiko, and Haku. She grew up in the same snowy village as Haku and her land was still suffering from war. She heard many stories about Gatō and his large company and learned many different paths to the Land of the Waves. This is something Mizu decided to tell the Third Hokage about, and something that contributed to Kiyomi seeing the death of her older cousin. Then, those with kekkei genkai were becoming feared and hated all out of the concern that their existence would only bring out more war, suffering, and death. Not long after Kiyomi’s mother realized this would be a problem, she decided to take her son and two daughters and move to Konohagakure; since she was scared her children would trust the wrong people and news that her children had a kekkei genkai would spread.

When Kiyomi did live in the Leaf Village, she was rather social and befriended Hinata Hyūga. When she started the academy, she was bullied for being from another land, and for being rather short. Over time though, Kiyomi's bullies left her alone, since she never let them get to her. Because of this, she became more popular. Through this popularity, she met and befriended Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno. Though in her house, there was trouble brewing as Aiko had moved months after Kiyomi did, yet Haku was still nowhere to be seen. Then Aiko revealed the truth about Haku’s true whereabouts and that he left with one of the Seven Ninja Swordsman of the Mist. This devastated Kiyomi, as not only was she terrified by the power of the Swordsman, she truly thought that she could trust Haku. This caused Kiyomi to want to forget about Haku altogether, but she could never truly get away from her past and constantly worried about Haku and his fate.

Back at the academy, Sasuke Uchiha’s popularity among girls was rapidly increasing. When her two closest friends Sakura and Ino both fell for him, and with the rumor going around that Sasuke liked girls with long hair, she cut her hair down with help from her mother so that it no longer fell to her mid-back but was chin length. She eventually cut off her ties with both of them since she couldn’t relate to them, not to mention she was sick of Sasuke being the heart of every conversation and of them frequently asking her which one of them deserved Sasuke more. This started her dislike for Sasuke at the beginning of the series, Though she did come to respect after graduation and even considered him a good friend in adulthood.

At some point in time, Sakura approached her and asked her if she had feelings for the young Uchiha, to which Kiyomi angrily declined and she argued with Sakura about her feelings. Kiyomi then harshly told Sakura that she was physically weak, stemming from her terrible temper, and cut off their friendship right there despite Sakura not actually doing anything wrong.

This started their dislike for each other and, because of her height, Kiyomi earned herself a prominent nickname of "Runt", (ちび Chibi), which many other girls, including Ino, started to call her as well as the boys who she made of, Raiden being a prime example. This nickname was constant through Parts I and II, and even in adulthood, she still goes by this nickname when others, especially Kaito, want to tease her.

Also, at some point Kiba approached Kiyomi and made fun of her for her height, to which she retorted and made fun of the male gender, this also ended up being a constant thing. This irritated Raiden, and he hissed at her comeback. Kiyomi was then not on good terms with her brother, in fact, they frequently argued with each other and made fun of each other. Little did Kiyomi know that Raiden was really just torn between his friends and family. They frequently said that the other would be a burden to their future team.

She then went to strengthen her bond with Hinata Hyūga and later befriended Nozomi Haruno. Kiyomi graduated from the academy with high grades and near mastery and full understanding of her kekkei genkai.

Personality
Kiyomi is a blunt, prudent and stoic kunoichi, though she became more impulsive and reckless in Part II. She is known to be aggressive and stubborn and, whenever particularly annoyed, upset, or impatient would end sentences with "Damn it" (しゃーんなろー, "Shannarō"), though it was sometimes translated as "Damn it all" which shows she can swear quite a bit when she speaks, though she usually maintains a friendly demeanor and doesn't swear too often. After she heard about Haku and his situation, she became much colder. Kiyomi was never afraid to speak her mind and is very blunt such as telling Itsuki Yamanaka if he ever wanted to get a girlfriend he would have to be much less annoying. She later passed this down to her daughter. She also seems to know at least something about flowers as she works with Ino at the Yamanaka Flower Shop.

She was always a feminist when growing up in Konoha, and showed a strong dislike for her male classmates in the academy and especially disliked Kiba Inuzuka and Sasuke Uchiha. She called Naruto Uzumaki annoying once, yet showed him respect later on and became one of his close friends. Because of her attitude, Shino Aburame held a grudge against her and often called her annoying alongside Kiba, much to the distaste of Hinata. When an academy student, she disliked many girls in her year since they loved Sasuke and were more interested in boys than actually being shinobi and Kiyomi found that annoying. She was rather happy when they didn’t graduate since they were ill-prepared for the duties of a shinobi. Sakura and Ino were the only exceptions since those two were the only girls who did not bully her. Many boys in her year disliked her as she disliked them in return and made fun of their gender.

Aiko was shocked at her bravery and boldness yet Kiyomi has never told anyone it was because of Ino and Naruto that she became bolder and more courageous and she adored the two greatly. Her mother was also shocked and surprised at how smart-mouthed, out-spoken, and bold she was. Raiden only came to dislike his sister because of this attitude and him, Kiba, and Itsuki always rivaled Kiyomi, Sakura, and Ino but he ended up becoming close to his sister later on and they both truly care for each other. She was also noted to be friendly and kind to people she cares for. She also has a soft side and uses proper honorifics in the right situations. Kiyomi also cares deeply for her comrades and loved ones, caring more about their well-being than her own at times. Kiyomi is also a tomboy and she is rather tough. Jiraiya noted that he was reminded of Kushina Uzumakiwhen she was younger when he looks at Kiyomi. Her friend, Shikamaru, noted her many similarities to her best friend and his wife, Temari.

Kiyomi is rather quick-tempered and can be harsh if she is angered enough, such as telling Sakura she was physically weak and needed to become stronger at a rather young age in the academy. This shows Kiyomi's temper and mouth can cause her to say things she would not mean at all. She showed regret and guilt for what she did to Sakura, and, during their mission to the Land of Waves, Kiyomi and Sakura rekindled their friendship, after Kiyomi's apology. Kiyomi is also prone to striking people if she becomes angered enough, and has a very intimidating demeanor when angry, which has gotten her very feared. In fact, many of if not all of her male friends (with the exception of Sasuke Uchiha) are scared of her due to her temper and have described her as scary when she's angry.

While under Tsunade's tutelage, one thing that was drilled into her was contempt for loosing and an unbending and undying spirit. Through Tsunade's influence, Kiyomi gained much higher will power and she will gladly lay her life down for those she cares for, regardless if they care for her or not. Kiyomi also highly cherishes and trusts those she sees as comrades and allies to the point where she will place herself at risk so that others don't need to and to assure her allies' victory. The amount of trust she puts into an ally depends on how long Kiyomi has known this person and what she personally thinks. Kiyomi also has faith in the dreams of others and is committed to protecting her loved ones, her village, and Konoha's villagers. She is also very brave and selfless. Thanks to all the similarities (good or bad) Kiyomi and Sakura bare to Tsunade, the friends are often called "Tsunade Number Two" (綱手二号, Tsunade Nigō).

She can be merciless against those who injure her comrades and cares for her loved ones deeply to the point where she would use her own body as a shield to protect them. She also gets along very well with the jōnins of Konoha and even has a father-daughter bond with Genma Shiranui, whom her sensei is married to. She was noted to be cheerful and Kaori even noted that she was the troublesome one in her group and showed immaturity and friendliness as a child.

As she grew up, she showed more respect to males and started to respect Shino more, yet he never came to stop disliking her any less. Kiba became one of her close friends in adulthood but admits that she is still pretty annoying, this thinking manner and opinion on Kiyomi is very similar to Gaara's. Kankurō, however, is the only one of his siblings who are not friends with Kiyomi and instead sees her as annoying, despite the respect she shows him.

After her training with Tsunade, Kiyomi became, like Sakura, overprotective of her friends, family, and teammates. She deeply cares about her loved ones and she risked her life on several occasions for them. Kiyomi also hugged her brother, Kaito, and Itsuki more often, and sometimes even kissed their foreheads and cheeks as a sign of affection, a symbol she cares for them greatly. Though due to her feelings for him, she would always blush deeply whenever she hugged Kaito and didn't kiss his forehead or cheek as much as she did with Raiden out of her shyness and embarrassment. After her marriage to him, however, she was more comfortable with showing affection.

On the other hand of her tough and blunt demeanor, Kiyomi seems to be insecure about gaining recognition and attention. She seemed to be jealous of Sakura's abilities as a medical ninja. She also seemed to think that Sakura was Tsunade's "favorite", and that Lady Tsunade cared about Sakura more than her. She was also desperate for praise. Because of her desperation for praise, Kiyomi would blush whenever someone acknowledged her abilities. She also hated whenever someone compared her to Sakura.

She has stated that despite what people will think, her self-esteem is noticeably low. At the beginning of Part I, she was shown to be rather confident in herself but, after Haku died in front of her, she became more uneasy. At the beginning of Part II, the main difference in Kiyomi's personality was that she was more soft and sensitive, and her desperation for attention and low esteem were also pretty clear. She was highly self-conscious about her abilities. She also had emotional insecurities and trust issues after she heard about what happened to Haku. Kiyomi put extra stress and pressure on herself because she was the Fifth Hokage's student and because of family matters. Because of all this, Kiyomi, alongside Raiden, was shown to be in a depressed state several times during Part II. It was also revealed that she developed post-traumatic stress disorder from watching Haku's death, suffering many nightmares of his death which would leave her terrified. She covers this up with her usual sassy and mouthy nature.

Before this, Kiyomi doubted her abilities and wanted to become better, stronger, and smarter and she wanted to protect all her friends from Konoha and Suna. For this, she dedicated almost three full years of training under Tsunade for strength, Kaori for medical ninjutsu, and Mizu for intelligence and mental training. Finally, Kiyomi becomes more comfortable expressing her feelings and is more impulsive and blunt after the beginning of Part II. She becomes willing to express her thoughts and she has also become more sensitive and emotional. Despite the emotional training she received, however, Kiyomi's self-esteem was still rather low and she more desperate for attention than people would think. She became very protective of her teammates and other friends in Konoha, as well as the Three Sand Siblings, and swore to herself that she would never lose her friends or anyone she loved again after Haku died.

As Part II continued, Kiyomi's insecurities became more clear and noticeable. Her desperation for acknowledgment and lack of attention made its way to her squad, to which Kaori reassured her that she was strong enough and skilled enough to become a better kunoichi than her mentor. She later becomes exposed to the realities of the world and realized that war was going to break out soon enough. She became slightly disappointed in herself for focusing more on her insecurities as opposed to focusing on her duties as a shinobi, which she quickly got over. During the war, she was shown to have similar thoughts and feelings again by stating that Sakura was doing more than self-pity, but was trying to help save the world and became one of the greatest medical-nin in the world. Kiyomi got her act together and ended up becoming more in touch with her feelings than ever.

Kiyomi has been in love with Kaito ever since she graduated from the academy, and wanted to see him safe and happy above all else. Kiyomi's infatuation with Kaito made it hard for her to concentrate on her duties as a shinobi and often got in the way of missions as she would drop the task at hand and rush to help him. Kiyomi hoped more than anything else that Kaito would love her back, and, during the war, her only desire was to be in his arms, showered in his love. Kiyomi was very desperate for him to notice her and acknowledge her so much that she was willing to die for Kaito just for him to know that she loves him. Her dreams of being in a stable, healthy, and loving relationship with Kaito soon became reality and Kiyomi married him after the war and had two children with him, Saki and Hibiki. As his wife, Kiyomi usually calls Kaito "darling" (アナタ, anata). Kiyomi, while usually assertive, aggressive, and tough, is the opposite around Kaito. Especially when he shows her affection, Kiyomi always blushes whilst becoming flustered and shy. This shows the major soft-spot she has for him.

As a mother, Kiyomi has become more gentle and appreciates the idea of beauty through development. She also values peace, though her family is still frightened by her temper and the rage that follows. She also loves her family and would not hesitate to fight those who hurt them and showed fierce loyalty to her loved ones when anyone insulted them. However, she is very strict and has even physically disciplined her son on a few occasions, clearly showing she is not above it. She also can tell exactly what her son and husband are thinking at times. She is, like Temari, the matriarch of her family and her daughter, son, and husband fear her wrath and try to avoid it. She does care for her children and her husband, however, and is usually very kind, affectionate, and patient as well as loyal and supportive. She also can be very intimidating, when she's angry, and her son fears her for her temper, for he has a knack for trouble and saying things to provoke her.

Appearance
Kiyomi has fair skin, blue eyes, and straight dark brown hair, which when in light, has a copper-colored shine to it and her front hair bangs went diagonally straight across her forehead. Her hair was chin length when she was a child, then it went down to her shoulder blades in Part I, then to her mid-back in Part II. During Part I, her hair tucked behind her ear but eventually grew down to chin-length bangs, collarbone in adulthood. According to Kakashi Hatake, she bore a slight resemblance to Rin Nohara. As she got older, like Sakura, Hinata, and Ino, Kiyomi is noted to become very attractive and beautiful not only by Kaito but by her friends as well.

During Naruto and Hinata's wedding, Kiyomi wore a dark green, high collared, sleeveless qipao dress that went down to her ankles with thigh-high slits on both sides with gold-colored trimmings. She also wore high-heeled sandals. For her own wedding with Kaito, Kiyomi wore a white wedding dress, with light pink tints, and long white arm-warmers. She also wore white high-heels, pink nail-polish and sported soft pink lipstick as well as dangling earings and a pink flower clip in her hair.

After rising to the ranks of jōnin and during The Last: Naruto the Movie, Kiyomi's attire consisted of a dark blue sleeveless, high-collared qipao dress, which had a zipper and went down to her mid thigh and also revealed her back and arms. She also wore black shorts and she began to stop wearing her forehead protector at all. She also wore similar sandals to the ones she wore in Part II and sported black gloves. She also cut her hair down to a straight, shoulder-length bob. In adulthood, Kiyomi wears a blue, sleeveless, high-collared top which exposes her midriff and a dark-colored belt right under it over a dark blue sleeveless top which covers more of her midriff. Accompanying this is white pants and high-heels. She also keeps her hair in two low, loose ponytails. When on duty, she dons the Konoha flak jacket over her clothes. She gained more of a slender and shapely figure. During the time after The Last, but before the start of Boruto, Kiyomi sported soft pink lipstick.

During her free time in both parts, Kiyomi would wear a black, short-sleeved shirt with a fishnet underneath, and navy blue shorts. As a child, Kiyomi wore a dark blue, long-sleeved hooded jacket and a black skirt. She also wore a dark crimson-colored bracelet around her right wrist. While working long hours at the hospital, Kiyomi sports a long-sleeved, white doctor's coat which falls down to the top of her thighs and a red armband that has Konoha's medical-nin symbol on her right arm during both Part II and adulthood. During pregnancy, Kiyomi sported a bright-blue, long-sleeved, over-the-shoulders dress which fell down to the middle of her calves.

Abilities
As a descendant of the Yuki clan and apprentice and student of a Senju, Kiyomi is a very powerful and skilled kunoichi. After undergoing training she adds more variety to her fighting style and becomes much more powerful. She is also widely known for her chakra control and skill in medical ninjutsu. Another thing she is famous for is her skill in being a bodyguard. In months, after becoming a chūnin, Kiyomi's skill in being a top-notch, elite, personal bodyguard and escort were so high that she earned herself a moniker, "Konoha's Guardian Angel". Even before the war, Kiyomi was becoming feared throughout sub-villages throughout the Five Great Nations for her potential and skills. Two years after the war, Kiyomi rises to the ranks of jōnin and, within that time, Kiyomi rises to worldwide, international glory and fame. Her main weakness in battle is her noticeably high lack of skill in genjutsu and too many hand seals can also hurt her, yet she is skilled nonetheless.

Physical Prowess and Chakra Control
Trained under Kaori, a relative of the SanninTsunade (as well as Tsunade herself), it’s only natural that Kiyomi would be taught how to build up and release the chakra she builds up in her fists, and if she wanted, her feet. When she releases this power on her target, it causes major damage. Kiyomi's strength is enough to shatter buildings or crumble the earth. Furthermore, it has been hinted that she can send chakra throughout her entire body to lift greater mass and improve her ability to ride out crushing blows, though this was not really seen yet. Kiyomi she was rarely seen fighting with taijutsu in Part I, she used it in Part II after weakening her opponents with Ice Release. This became a major part of her fighting style.

The main objective of getting Tsunade to help with Kiyomi's training was to increase Kiyomi's chakra supply to complete the Strength of a Hundred Seal. When the seal is released, Kiyomi has access to all the concentrated chakra, allowing her to perform techniques of a greater scale than she is normally able to. In addition to that, her physical attacks are also enhanced. She can also transfer this chakra to others. Another result of Tsunade's intense training was Kiyomi gaining incredible stamina, even without her seal, similar to Sakura.

Another one of Kiyomi’s strong points is her speed. Her sheer speed alone made her hard for Haku to defeat. She is also very agile and has good reflexes. Kiyomi's speed increases whenever she uses her Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals. She attacks very quickly and without a kekkei genkai like the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, it becomes basically impossible to see and keep track of her movements. She can travel between her mirrors and make it look like she is in all of them when she is really just traveling between them. However, even in adulthood, Kiyomi has not found a way to release the chakra she builds up in fist fast enough to keep up with her speed. This speed was her most defining skill in Part I.

Kiyomi was naturally talented with her chakra control and was able to perform a jutsu without wasting too much chakra. This skill in it might have also come from Kaori training her squad up in this. When Kaori saw that Kiyomi’s proficiency in chakra control could help her use and master the Strength of a Hundred Seal, she took her to Tsunade to give Kiyomi the training she needed to master it, picking up incredible chakra control along the way. After all the training Kiyomi went through under Tsunade's tutelage, her chakra control increased amazingly, and she turned it into a vital part of her battle strategy. This ended up becoming the first thing Kiyomi taught Saki after she became a genin. Kiyomi has stated multiple times that chakra control is one of the most important skills in a ninja, saying that she would be nowhere if she did not master proper chakra control and that it is not only vital in medical ninjutsu but in many types of jutsu in general.

Ninjutsu
By the beginning of the Fourth Shinobi World War, around the time Kiyomi mastered Strength of a Hundred Seal, she could use the Summoning Technique and, like Sakura and Tsunade, could summon the giant slug, Katsuyu. By having Katsuyu split apart, Kiyomi can remotely monitor her allies and can replenish and heal their chakra as needed. Also, she can use yin and yang chakra and many water and wind style techniques.

Nature Transformation
Kiyomi’s main weapon in battle is her utilization of wind and water natured chakra to create the Ice Release, which she is very proficient in doing. Not only could she fight with wind and water style ninjutsu but she could also use Ice Release techniques such as Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals. Kiyomi can surround her target and attack them even they are in the sky. For defensive purposes, Kiyomi can create a dome of ice which can handle several explosive tags at once. She is just as skilled in using her two chakra natures separately as she is using them together. Combined with her monster strength, medical ninjutsu, and speed she is a deadly and formidable opponent.

Medical Ninjutsu
When Kiyomi went to Kaori, her main and only goal was to learn medical ninjutsu to ensure that no one she loved would die again. The advanced medical ninjutsu that Kiyomi and Sakura were taught required incredible chakra control. This amount of skill and proficiency in healing to be found in such young kunoichi or anyone, in general, was exceptionally rare. Whenever Kiyomi releases her seal, she does not have to retreat in battle or worry about her injuries, instead, it seems to only increase her confidence and determination. With such training and help from the Sannin herself, Kiyomi could heal fatal injuries done to her or anyone else. She was taught the basics of poisoning and coated her kunai and shuriken or any weapon with poison after proper training from Shizune. Though not as skilled as Sakura, she came rather close and was a near expert in self-restoration and weapon coating. She is also very skilled in healing others and played a major part in the Fourth Shinobi World War as she played a major part in healing most of the wounded when Sakura and her other medical superiors could not.

Kiyomi can make incisions in her patients and try to directly treat their vital organs if healing proves ineffective. During her mission to stop Team Mikan, Kiyomi poured her chakra into Aiko for three whole days to prevent her from dying. Her medical expertise extends to more standard medicine as well, enabling her to perform autopsies and examine cells with a knowledge of genetics. She was taught by Tsunade how to make effective sleeping gas and was taught by Shizune on how to fabricate poisons that, when applied on weapons, could attenuate or paralyze a person with a single scratch. Though she is not as good as Sakura, Kiyomi still as high skill in medical ninjutsu and is regarded as one of the greatest medical-nin in the entire world, much like her idol, not too far behind Sakura.

She can also cure those who have been poisoned by extracting the poison from their bodies, while simultaneously healing the casualty. Kiyomi can also create poisons difficult for others to counter; though people who know much about poisons can easily create antidotes. This is something she went to Ino for, as she did not learn about it when she was trained under Kaori. Despite the help she was given, it’s still her weak point in medical ninjutsu, and she can still be bested by a poison. However, Kiyomi is extremely skilled in making antidotes and can analyze and decipher even the most complex poisons to make an effective antidote, with standard medicinal herbs barely requiring actual medical tools. Though her abilities to create poisons are very low, especially for a medical ninja. In fact, all of the poisons that Kiyomi carries are made by Aiko.

Sensory Perception
Kiyomi has rare skill with sensory perception. She can perform basic techniques, such as sensing the chakra around her and telling where people are based on their chakra. Kiyomi can detect her targets chakra from a great distance, and she can tell people apart from imposters based on their chakra signature alone. She can also tell people apart from a crowd and can tell when others are lying to her, though she isn't the best at it. She can distinguish and recognize chakra natures and even link it back to bloodline relatives.

Poison Techniques and Weaponry
One of the main thing that Shizune taught Kiyomi during the time skip was the ability to incorporate poison into her attacks and fabricate her weapons with it. She can emit a poisonous gas from her mouth that is fatal even if only the slightest bit of it is inhaled. She can also fire senbon from a wrist-mounted device in quick succession. She also knows how to strike vital points with senbon on their own. Usually, Kiyomi saturates her weapons such as shuriken and kunai as well as her sword with a deadly poison that Aiko created for her.

Taijutsu
Kiyomi was shown to have some noteworthy skill in taijutsu. Though by Kaori it was deemed about above average prowess, it wasn't anything too special. The main cause of this probably comes from one of two sources, or maybe both, Kiyomi's monster strength and her insane speed. These two factors are clearly the main things that Kiyomi's taijutsu so noteworthy. According to Mizu, however, Kiyomi's taijutsu would be plain average if it wasn't for her strength and speed.

Kenjutsu
In Part II, Kiyomi displayed high skill with swords and she always carries a chokutō, which is sealed away in a scroll. She was also shown to be able to infuse her wind natured chakra into the sword to increase its sharpness and lethal ability. This sword is also fabricated in one of the poisons Kiyomi carries, which was made by Aiko. Kiyomi uses extreme speed and high accuracy to attack her opponents and leave little time to react.

Kyūjutsu
From a young age, Kiyomi was well-versed with archery, something she picked up from Aiko. Her speed and efficiency with a bow and arrow are unrivaled throughout almost all of Konohagakure. Her accuracy, power, aim, and speed had increased greatly after proper training from Aiko. Because of the training she received, Aiko is the only known person who is better than Kiyomi with archery so far. While she was never seen actually using archery in battle, she was shown being able to hit targets with amazing speed and power several times in a row while training under Tentento improve her marksmanship while training against Itsuki during the Chūnin Exams.

Intelligence
Kiyomi’s keen intellect is one of her main weapons. She uses it to get her targets to reveal their weakness or weak point. Also, she sometimes plays dead and tricks her opponents into lowering their guards. Also, her analytical thinking process, something that Kakashi thinks she got from Haku, helps her force her opponents into drawing out their weakness. She can pick up on patterns and guess enemy tactics quicker after training her mind more at the end of Part I. Kiyomi’s I.Q. helps her greatly with her fighting style of weakening her target with ninjutsu, then finishing them off with taijutsu. She is also good at following directions and has a cunning side to her personality.

She was also shown to have high skill in acupuncture, as she can disable an opponent by hitting them at a precise point on the body with a senbon. Because of this, Kiyomi can cause immediate death or a temporary appearance that looks like such. Kiyomi also knows a lot about herbalism, as she usually collected plants and herbs for her mother, when she was still a genin, for medical purposes and, as a teenager in Part II, could easily distinguish between them by appearance. Kiyomi also has very keen senses and is described to be an excellent strategist, though she's nowhere near as smart as Shikamaru Nara. She can also evaluate or analyze complex information, very quickly.

Main Article: Prologue-Land of Waves Arc
After graduating, Kiyomi was first seen sitting the classroom next to Hinata and Nozomi as the girls talk to each other about anything which comes to mind. Kiyomi growls when she sees Ino and Sakura rushing in the classroom and watches the other girls arguing over Sasuke with a look of distaste. She is then enraged to hear she is with Itsuki but softens and smiles when she learns that she's on a team with Kaito, giggling to herself. When meeting Kaori, Kiyomi sets rules for Itsuki to follow. She is later seen with Hinata, walking through the village happily discussing their friendship and Kiyomi continuously giggles and talks about her feelings towards Kaito. It is unknown whether Kiyomi's squad was assigned the bell test, however, it has been hinted that they were and they succeeded the first time. After being summoned to the mission reception area, Kiyomi is assigned a C-rank mission with Team 7: escorting Mr.Tazuna to the Land of Waves. The only reason that Kiyomi went on this mission instead of one with her actual squad was that of the background knowledge she had of the Land of Waves, hearing many stories and even learning several different routes there as a child in Kirigakure. Soon after leaving Konoha, Sakura and Kiyomi were busy rebuilding their friendship, only to be attacked by the Demon Brothers. Kiyomi and Sakura place themselves in front of Tazuna to protect him until Kakashi is able to capture the brothers and stop them. Being forced to talk, Tazuna admits that the brothers were hired assassins to kill him, but he could not afford the money he needed for proper bodyguard details. Despite the mission now being classified as an A-rank mission, Team 7 agreed to continue after Naruto's oath of pain.

When they reach the Land of Waves, Kiyomi and Team 7 are attacked by Zabuza Momochi. Sakura once again puts herself in front of Tazuna, and Kiyomi places herself in front of her friend ready to defend her or help Naruto and Sasuke who were currently fighting him off. After Zabuza is seemingly killed by Haku, Kiyomi starts to feel near depression and raised her suspicions about the boy's true identity. Nevertheless, Kiyomi helps bring Kakashi back to Tazuna's house. There, Kakashi's suspicions are raised as well and question Zabuza's death, only to conclude that he was not dead and was training that very minute. He then has them perform the Tree Climbing Practice to improve their chakra control. Kiyomi easily mastered it due to her being trained this way by her sensei prior to this mission, and Sakura mastered it on her first try as well thus, leaving the girls in charge of protecting and helping Tazuna. A week later, the rest of their friends join them, and they head back to the bridge.

They reach the bridge, only to find that Haku and Zabuza are waiting for them. Kiyomi agrees to fight Haku and help Sasuke, as she told Kakashi about her suspicions the night before they left and he agreed to let her fight. She is soon trapped in Haku's Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals alongside Sasuke and she quickly tried explaining the way that this particular jutsu works, however, despite being the one that protected Sasuke from most of the attacks, she soon passed from exhaustion as she could not simultaneously protect Sasuke and fight off her older cousin. She passed out sometime after Naruto's arrival. Though she was able to regain her consciousness quickly, she woke up just in time to see Sasuke pass out and Naruto lose it. Kiyomi witnessed Naruto unwittingly access the Nine-Tails Chakra and was at first rather scared of his power. That strength allowed Naruto to destroy Haku's mirrors and, to Kiyomi's horror, Haku was truly unmasked proving Kiyomi's fears.

She watched Haku ask Naruto to kill him since he feels of no use to Zabuza and was going to intervene when Haku stopped Naruto and protected Zabuza from Kakashi's Lightning Cutter Technique, sacrificing his own life. He quickly tells Kiyomi he's sorry for what he's done and told her to tell her clansmen about his death. Kiyomi tearfully complies. When Zabuza refuses to appreciate Haku's sacrifice, Naruto scolds him and shouts about Haku giving up his life to protect someone precious to him. Kiyomi ended up breaking down completely after Naruto's speech and started crying all over Haku's corpse, holding it close to her body saying how much she missed him already. She at first didn't notice that Zabuza was dead until Sakura put her hand on her friend's shoulder and informed everyone else about Sasuke's status. Soon after Sasuke's recovery, they returned to Konoha via Tazuna's finished bridge. She then informed her clansmen about Haku's death as he had asked and broke down again.

Main Article: Chūnin Exams
To take her mind off of Haku's death and end her depression, Kaori decided to enter Kiyomi and her team into the Chūnin Selection Exams. Though this might have been Kaori's main reason to enroll her team into the Exams, the strength, and skill of her students was certainly enough to prove them worthy of taking the Exams. Shortly before the start of the exams, Kiyomi starts to talk to Hinata and Nozomi and they discuss the exams. For the first portion of the exams, they are given a written exam with too high of a difficulty level for the average genin to answer. Despite the fact that Kiyomi had a high I.Q. at the time, she was too overwhelmed by the questions and was able to answer only one of the questions. Itsuki then used his Mind Body Switch Technique to copy the answers of Ino, since he had seen her do the same thing to Sakura thus knowing that Ino would have the right answers and then transferred the answers to his teammates.

For the second stage of the exams, Team 4 enters the Forest of Death to take part in a 5-day survival exercise. Kiyomi, Kaito, and Itsuki think with a similar mindset to that of Team 10, and try to avoid conflict to not tire themselves out and save their energy for when they really need it.

Kiyomi and her squad passed the second exam and the remaining genin take part in one-on-one combat for the preliminary matches. For her match, Kiyomi is pitted against her brother, Raiden. Both struggle to come up with a strategy to defeat the other as they both have the same kekkei genkai and trained with each other in their free time. Kiyomi eventually manages to come up with a strategy to defeat her brother: play dead and make him lower his guard, then one-shot him when his guard was down. Kiyomi admitted that it was not one of her best ideas and that she could have thought of better, but did not have the time to. Her plan barely worked and she was left in a worse condition than before, in fact, both of her ankles had severe damage done to them to the point were both of her teammates had to put her arms around their necks to keep her up. She knocked her brother out and passed out right after she was declared the winner of the match. After Raiden woke up, Kiyomi released herself from Itsuki and Kaito's grip and hugged him tightly and told him that she was the winner of the match with a smirk on her face. This did irritate Raiden, but he hugged his sister back nonetheless, happy that she had finally smiled after Haku's death. Kiyomi is later scheduled to fight Itsuki.

Kiyomi is later seen relaxing with Sakura, Ino, and Aiko. At other times, she is seen talking to and training with Hinata. Her mother helped train her up slightly and Ino even decided to give Kiyomi tips about how to defeat the Mind Body Switch Technique and Itsuki himself. She was once seen with Mizu practicing the Cliff Climbing Technique. At another point, with Tenten, Kiyomi practiced her marksmanship with moving targets with archery as an overwatching Aiko smiled at them.

When the finalists gather, Kiyomi watches several battles until her own. When it's time for her fight, Kiyomi quickly goes to the arena and prepares to fight Itsuki Yamanaka, listening to Ino and Sakura cheering her on against him. They exchanged insults and began to spar. It began with Kiyomi using water style ninjutsu against him and him dodging it. He then considered using Mind Body Switch Technique against Kiyomi but knew it was not smart since he did not have anyone to back him up and she would easily be declared the winner if he tries to and she dodges it. Because of this, he resorts to using ninjutsu (Crystal Release) and taijutsu against her which proves to challenge her. She skillfully dodged most of his attacks, yet got hit by some of them suffering damage. She enforces chakra into her taijutsu to make it stronger, though it was poorly done and wasn't too much better than before,  and used her ninjutsu to its full power to defeat him. Kiyomi used her Ice Release to weaken him and used her chakra-enforced taijutsu to weaken him more and lower his defenses. She then threw several kunai and shuriken at Itsuki and he dodged them all and ran towards her. He inflicted almost major damage to Kiyomi but she still managed to overpower him by being able to get behind him after she threw the weapons at him and punched his arm from his blind spot after jumping behind him, making him fall over. Then, Kiyomi was able to pin Itsuki to the ground with her fist to his face though, again, she had severe damage done to her ankles and could barely walk properly.

She was then declared the winner by Genma Shiranui and despite the fact that the observing older ninjas were impressed by the strength such a young kunoichi could bring herself to exert in the middle of battle, they were slightly disappointed by the lack of strategy Kiyomi used to defeat Itsuki, which contributes to the fact that she did not become a chūnin after Tsunade became the Hokage. She then got off Itsuki and shook hands with him. Then, she hurried off to her friends, Sakura and Ino, to watch the rest of the matches. They congratulated her cheerfully and she happily thanked them. When the match between Gaara and Sasuke began, Kiyomi happily commented to Sakura that she was proud and impressed by Sasuke's development. She also stated that she could see how hard he trained and how much stronger Sasuke had gotten compared to when they were on the mission at the Land of the Waves, protecting Tazuna.

Main Article: Sasuke Recovery Mission
Kiyomi was seen with her squad, teasing Itsuki for loosing to her as Kaito sat there with a smirk, Kaori a smile. After the failed attempt to stop Sasuke from defecting from Konoha, she was later seen with Aiko, relieved to hear that her friends were safe and promising Aiko they could visit Neji and Naruto together whenever they could. When they did visit Naruto, Kiyomi became inspired by Sakura because she was striving to be useful and powerful to protect others, regardless of the fact that it would not be easy, in fact, it would be very hard, challenging and tiring. Then, Kiyomi asked to be trained in medical ninjutsu under Kaori and asked if she could learn Strength of a Hundred Seal as well as learn how to wield Tsunade's monster strength. Though surprised, Kaori accepted and told her that if she wanted to master the Strength of a Hundred Seal, she would have to go to Tsunade, but Kaori did state that she could certainly help with medical ninjutsu and started to train Kiyomi, giving her work to do every day and night and even pushed her to train every mission and asked Mizu to help train her so she could get to Tsunade faster to train so she could wield the same purple seal and also Tsunade's monstrous strength and so she could catch up to Sakura. Kiyomi noted several times that it was very hard to keep up with the lessons and both women were very strict, allowing little to no room for failure.

Main Article: In Naruto's Footsteps: The Friends' Paths
In the anime, about two years after Naruto leaves to train, another chūnin exam is held. Kiyomi enters with her squad. During the first exam, Kiyomi, Itsuki, and Kaito are seated in different rooms and are tasked with the objective of getting a combined score of exactly 100 points on their written exam despite the separation. Itsuki does the same thing that Team 10 did: he contacted his teammates telepathically and assigned them the questions to answer. Then, they are given a bonus question: each team must unanimously select a teammate to disqualify. Team 4 chose no one and that was the correct answer. This qualified them to the next phase.

Those who passed the first exam are tasked with a new objective: reach the Demon Dessert within three days in order to participate in the second exam. Kaito, Kiyomi, and Itsuki successfully do so and are given the same exam they were several years ago: obtain a scroll from another team.

Team 4 is eventually found by one of the proctors, who brings them back to where all the other genin are being assembled. They were then told that the Chūnin Selection Exams have been canceled; reports on the participants' performances will be sent back to their villages and their promotion is left to their superiors. When they get back to Konoha, Lady Tsunade promotes Kiyomi and her friends to chūnin.

She also chuckled when Aiko was nicknamed "matchmaker".

Main Article: Twelve Guardian Ninja
In the anime, when Furido's 4- man team invades Konoha, Kiyomi joins the other ninja fighting of Fudo's zombie ninja army. She then becomes shocked when she hears from her friend, Ino, that the enemies are members of the Kohaku Clan and she also serves medical support for her teammates and allies. When the zombies are defeated, Kiyomi leaves with other members of the Konoha 11 to handle Sora's jinchuriki transformation and provide assistance to Team 7.

Main Article: Akatsuki Suppression Mission
Whenever she is not on a mission, Kiyomi is seen alongside Aiko, Sakura, and Sai as they watch Naruto Uzumaki train to develop a new jutsu. She is later seen requesting for permission to aid Shikamaru, Ino and the other shinobi and units after the Akatsuki. Tsunade allows Kiyomi and Aiko to go and they are given specific instructions for Aiko to aid Ino and Choji's unit and Kiyomi to Shikamaru's. She is then seen ready to aid in Shikamaru, Asuma, Izumo, and Kotetsuand their battle against Akatsuki members Hidan and Kakuzu. She is also impressed by Shikamaru's intelligence, as he was able to figure out how Hidan's Jashin Curse Ritual worked in mere seconds and was also able to force Hidan out of the Jashin symbol he drew on the ground. She then told the three men, Izumo, Kotetsu, and Shikamaru, that she was ready to aid them in any way possible, which included self-sacrificial moves which she made sure to tell them and make note of.

After Asuma seemingly killed Hidan, Kiyomi healed Shikamaru as he was tired having to trap the Jashinistic Akatsuki member in his Shadow Strangle Jutsu long and he had to wait for his injured sensei to "kill" Hidan. She then praised Shikamaru for his intelligence. Like her comrades, she expressed her shock at Hidan staying alive despite having his head severed, and at Kakuzu's powers, mentally relating them to her own, and listened to Shikamaru urge her to fight the rogue ninja. Kiyomi then tried to help Izumo and Kotetsu fight Kakuzu and, while he was holding Izumo and Kotetsu by their throats, tried to attack him with her monstrous strength from behind, however, got too distracted by Hidan walking back to his ritual circle to finish off Asuma Sarutobi and was too torn between the two options she had, but saw Asuma get up and quickly scolded herself mentally, and rushed to help Izumo and Kotetsu being strangled by Kakuzu's threads. She didn't realize that Hidan's three-bladed scythe had swung at Asuma from behind, and only turned around when she heard Shikamaru shout. She at first played at ease, but then realized what Hidan was standing in and let few tears of fear spill out of her eyes and she was, again, torn between Asuma and the two chunin being strangled. After Shikamaru started to run towards his sensei, Kiyomi quickly followed and tried to heal him, but was too slow and wasn't able to reach him in time. She still tried to heal him, but too much damage was done and one of Asuma's most vital organs was hit. She was crying too and tried her best, but she wasn't able to heal him enough to ensure his survival and eventually got too shocked and upset too continue and dropped her hands to her side, collapsing and breaking down completely. When reinforcements arrived, Kiyomi tearfully tried to explain the situation, but kept choking on her tears and couldn't.

Then she helped Aoba fight off Kakuzu with her monster strength, but not for very long as he had to leave for the Two-Tails sealing yet not before Kakuzu made comment about how he was impressed by Shikamaru's high intelligence and Kiyomi strength and speed. Then, her and Ino started to perform medical ninjutsu on Asuma to try and heal him or at least stabilize his condition but stopped on Shikamaru's orders. Though she was not given a breath of Asuma's last words, she still broke down and her Ino hugged each other and kept crying.

She is later seen attending Asuma Sarutobi's funeral, mourning his loss.

Kiyomi was later asking permission from Lady Tsunade to help Shikamaru fight Hidan and Kakuzu after Asuma's funeral, but her mentor denied, stating that too many were already at the same place and she already planned to send a backup team. Tsunade also stated that too many people could drag down the team. After returning from the mission, Kiyomi was surprised to hear from Ino that Kakuzu seemed disappointed that she was not there. Ino stated that he mentioned this after attacking Choji Akimichi after he charged at Hidan for insulting Asuma. Also, according to her (Ino), Kakuzu would have rather fought someone with the physical strength and speed as Kiyomi to see how well she could do against him and to see her true power.

Main Article: Three-Tails' Appearance
Kiyomi, Raiden, and Aiko had a cameo during this arc as Naruto compared their Ice Release to Guren's Crystal Release. It was also revealed that Kiyomi was supposed to help with the Four-Corner Sealing Barrier, but was already on a mission with her team and could not.

Main Article: Fanmade Arc: Shinobi of the Yuki
Being sent on a mission to take care of a complaint, of a shinobi group causing trouble and kidnapping and killing others, Kiyomi, Raiden, and Aiko head out to help a small village. Having to stop to sleep and rest, Kiyomi and her team stop to sleep. It was then revealed that during Kiyomi's dream, that she was still traumatized by Haku's death. This was shown when she had a nightmare about the impaled Haku telling her she was weak and that Sakura would always be stronger than her: that she was too weak to prevent his death before shouting her name angrily. Kiyomi soon shot out of sleep to a shocked Raiden who asked her if she was alright. Kiyomi nodded but stated that she didn't like the feel of the wind, and knew something bad was going to happen. The next day, they soon run into Mikan, Tsumugi, and Kaida. Aiko then engages in combat with Mikan, Kiyomi with Kaida, and Raiden with Tsumugi.

Then, due to Mikan's jutsu, Kiyomi and Raiden, as well as Tsumugi and Kaida, get separated from Aiko and Mikan, as Mikan wanted to have a rematch with Aiko with no interference. This left Kiyomi and Raiden to Kaida and Tsumugi. Though Kiyomi was going to attack Kaida, she watched as Tsumugi stated that she didn't want to kill Raiden, but she'd save him a kiss before that (that being Raiden's death). She hissed and was going to do something, but realized that Raiden could handle himself and that she had a mission to finish. Then, she attacked Kaida with her monstrous strength and then trapped the latter with her mirrors. Kiyomi, however, was startled by the fact that Kaida had a jutsu that could melt one of her mirrors, and that mirror was the same one that Kiyomi was in, causing her to have major, second-degree burns on her right arm.

Kiyomi, however, managed to gain the upper hand by tiring out Kaida with her intense speeds and large quantities of chakra. This caused the latter to let her guard down long enough to the point were Kiyomi could go to rescue Raiden from death by punching the ground and causing Tsumugi to have to break the jutsu to get herself to safety. This allowed Kiyomi to get to her brother to get him to safety as well.

Kiyomi and Raiden then watched as Tsumugi yelled at Kaida for letting her guard down. The sisters then started to argue This led Kiyomi to reminisce about her own childhood memories with Sakura as she called her weak and said she would be a burden to her future squad while simultaneously wondering if Sakura was Tsunade's favorite. Meanwhile, Raiden thought about how he really felt inside when he agreed to the same things about Kiyomi while he was a kid with Kiba and Itsuki. This led them both to become very uneasy and uncomfortable.

Due to both Kaida and Tsumugi realizing that Kiyomi and Raiden's guards were down, they chose to attack them. This gave them the upper hand and allowed them to do major damage. But, the two kunoichis let themselves get too cocky, which resulted in their death's at Kiyomi and Raiden's hands.

To kill her, Kiyomi had to trick Kaida into thinking that she had killed her, then, with her guard down, Kiyomi moved behind Kaida and tried to attack her, but Kaida managed to dodge Kiyomi's attack, barely. Kiyomi then questioned if Kaida was going to arm herself, to which Kaida stated that, although she didn't have any, she didn't need any weapons to beat Kiyomi. Then Kiyomi threw several kunai out at Kaida, pretending to miss. Then Kaida took the one nearest to her and moved towards Kiyomi to attack her, though the latter let her guard down and was overthrown by a Water Release technique. Then a wind style one to keep her still and, finally, an Ice Release technique to trap her. When Kaida questioned where she went wrong, Kiyomi stated that she purposefully threw the kunai at Kaida's direction to get her to come near her. She then proceeded to kill Kaida by punching her in the chest, causing her to die instantly.

Later she and Raiden finally met up with their older cousin and they started to discuss plans for returning to Konoha and giving themselves as much treatment as their chakra would allow. Though the three had another enemy waiting for them. A group of five shinobi, who had always supported Mikan's beliefs and ideas as well as her sisters', unbeknownst to them. They ruthlessly attacked the three for killing the sisters and each member made hundreds of clones to tire out the trio even more. Though they tried to fight back, they were too tired, and little chakra left, not anticipating the attack on them. The three had quickly reached their limits, Aiko even became poisoned. When Aiko's guard was down, after being poisoned, the leader of the group tried to stab Aiko in a vital spot, to kill her, but both Kiyomi and Raiden jumped in front of the attack, using themselves as shields to protect their cousin. Kiyomi, who was the one in front grabbed onto the sword to make sure the group didn't flee from battle and told Aiko to get back to Konoha, but Aiko refused to leave them there. Then, Kiyomi managed to master her own Strength of a Hundred Seal and releases it so she can heal herself. She then manages to fight back and quickly kills the shinobi who attacked her and her family.

Kiyomi then summons Katsuyu to transfer chakra to her, Raiden, and Aiko, as they were all exhausted and in need of chakra. Kiyomi then transferred chakra to Aiko through physical contact, and the markings spread onto Aiko's body. It was then revealed that during her fight with Mikan, Aiko released her Strength of a Hundred Seal, but the kunoichi did even more damage after that which left Aiko in her current state. She also stated that she focused all her chakra, which she had left, to heal her wounds as opposed to reforming her seal. Later on, Kiyomi released her Strength of a Hundred Seal and summons Katsuyu to transfer chakra to her, Raiden, and Aiko, as they were all exhausted and in need of chakra. Kiyomi then used the medicinal herbs around her to create an antidote for Aiko, demonstrating the skill she had. Without the usage of the proper medical tools a standard medical-nin would need, Kiyomi barely used any tools and, with Raiden's aid and expertise, managed to create the proper antidote in exactly an hour to counter the unknown poison.

It was also revealed that Kiyomi used the Healing Resuscitation Regeneration Technique to help heal Aiko's deeper cuts and gashes quicker, with Raiden, but they Katsuyu to replenish their chakra once more. After Kiyomi uses Katsuyu to talk to Tsunade about what had happened, Katsuyu is relieved of her duties.

Then, Kiyomi and Raiden give themselves some additional treatment and then Kiyomi hugs Aiko and Raiden and tells them that she greatly loves them both as her family. It ends with Aiko, Kiyomi, and Raiden thinking about how far they've come and how they're ready for anything that comes their way, with each other and their friends.

While trapped, Kiyomi dreams of herself getting married to Kaito with Reiki and Haku alive and well at her wedding with other deceased characters such as Inoichi Yamanaka, Asuma Sarutobi, Neji Hyūga, and Shikaku Nara as well as her family and friends. Naruto and Sasuke eventually release the Infinite Tsukuyomi, freeing Kiyomi and the rest of the world and thus ending the Fourth Shinobi World War. They all return to Konoha to bury the dead from the war, with Team Kurenai and Naruto paying their respects at the mass funeral.

Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie

In the alternate world, Kiyomi is more timid, soft-spoken, and level-headed. As opposed to her brave, blunt, and tough personality, Kiyomi is now much more rational, calm, soft, and even girly. She is also more conservative in her appearance. She is meek and shy. Unlike the Kiyomi that Naruto and Sakura know, Kiyomi shows some type of disgust when talking about Haku. Kiyomi is shy with boys and isn't as good with them as in the real world. She is like the Ino of this fake world and like Hinata of the actual timeline. She also isn't bossy or pushy with her team, trying to end things harmoniously with them as opposed to lashing out at them like she normally does. Contrary to the original timeline, Kiyomi was raised by Reiki instead of Mizu, who in this world died, the exact opposite of the real world. Reiki was also a Konoha shinobi in this world instead one from Kiri. The only difference in Kiyomi's appearance is the fact that she wears a light purple eye shadow, which looks like Konan's and her top also covers her stomach and navel and also dons short-sleeves.

Video Games
Kiyomi Yuki is a playable character in the following video games: In many video games set during Part I, Kiyomi, like Sakura, reveals an "Inner Kiyomi" (内なる清見, Uchi Naru Kiyomi). The games varied between Kiyomi using either acrobatic physical attacks (similar to the Musoh-Battoh-Ryu style of fighting) or her using her "Inner Kiyomi" as a physical embodiment.

During the games set in Part II and after, however, Kiyomi's abilities are adjusted to match the actual canon, though she does still have some acrobatic attacks in her arsenal of jutsu and abilities.

In several of the Ultimate Ninja Storm games, the team combination of Kiyomi and Kaito is called "Opposite Lovers".

Creation and Conception
I (as Kiyomi's creator) have always an issue with changing her design and name on many occasions. One thing, however, that remained the same was Kiyomi's personality. I also had always planned for her to be left without a father from the very beginning. Fun fact, I originally had Kiyomi's name as Rin, then as Hanabi, then I finally settled on Kiyomi, but I did fear that it was too popular. I also always greatly admired Sakura Haruno and, for that reason, I based Kiyomi on her a lot. I also have always kept key parts of Kiyomi's personality. I originally planned for Kiyomi to be a member of Squad 7, but I feared that to be too Sue-ish. Then, I planned for Kiyomi to be a member of Team Ten, but I was scared that would ruin the Ino-Shika-Cho trio thing, so I created Team Four.

But I can't even compete with Sakura, she's just so much better than me. I mean she never gave up on Uchiha, she became a powerful kunoichi, she's one of the greatest medical-nin in the world but I'm useless compared to her! I've barely done anything, and I'm the one who's feared. She's saving the world but, I'm doing nothing but feel bad for myself! I need to help with something, even if it means giving up my own life!" 
 * (To Kaito, after his confession) "I- I love you too, Kaito, but there are three things I want from you, alright? First, lips that don't lie. Second, eyes that won't cry. Third, love that never dies" 
 * (To Temari, about Shikadai and Shikamaru) "Well, Temari, you've not really done that good of a job of whipping Shikamaru if this boy is the result of it. Shikadai Nara was his name, right? It's not just the "Shika'" in his name, but also his personality. And he's got Shikamaru's looks and everything! He really is the son of Shikamaru Nara, now isn't he, Temari?"
