Seina Hoshina (保科せいな, Hoshina Seina) is a genin-level kunoichi of Konohagakure and member of Konohagakure's Team Cho Li. She possesses the Swift Release kekkei genkai as a member of the Hoshina clan.
Background
Seina was born into the famed Hoshina clan to Seiichi Hoshina and his wife Sanae, as part of the Main Branch through her father. Like the children her age, Seina attended the Academy, and she eventually graduated and was placed on a genin team consisting of Saya Kohaku, Takeo Nara and Kotarō Shimura under the guidance of Cho Li Akimichi. Not long after the team's formation they were sent to fight in the Second Shinobi World War.
Personality
Seina is a very optimistic girl who hates to lose. She is determined and caring towards her teammates, often acting like a mother while she fusses over their injuries, and oblivious to any crushes directed at her. She is easily intimidated, mainly by Cho Li's large frame and scarred face, however Seina greatly cares for the wellbeing of her mentor, going as far as to attempt to heal her while outright putting herself in danger. Seina also tends to add "-desu" at the end of her sentences when she is flustered or angered. Seina hates to see when her close friends are feeling negativity or are just emotionless, so she has made it her life-long personal mission to keep the people around her as happy as they can be, which can be a reason why she is always optimistic. On this regard, Seina can be described as somewhat annoying, as she tries her best to make the people around her smile and laugh, and one of her constant "victims" is Saya, whom Seina adores like her own sister. Similar to her view on Saya as her "sister", Seina views her team as her second family, with Takeo and Kotarō taking the role of her "brothers", and views Cho Li as her "older sister".
Appearance
Seina's initial appearance
Seina has fair skin, light brown hair and blue eyes, traits that others say makes her look almost identical to her mother. From her father, she inherited her two beauty spots, one on each side on the corner of her eye. Her hair is waist-length and is tied in the middle, a strand of her hair wrapping around it multiple times. Her hair is parted to the left and two strands, one on each side, is pulled to the back with a black string while a couple of strands fall on her forehead and frame her face. She normally wears a black long-sleeved turtleneck shirt with a pale blue apron skirt, black pants underneath and standard blue shinobi sandals. When on duty, she wears her forehead protector on her forehead on a black cloth, and replaces her apron skirt with one that has a large pocket on it in the middle, where she stores her extra kunai, shuriken and medical scrolls.
Abilities
Kekkei Genkai
As a member of the Hoshina clan, Seina inherited the Swift Release. The Swift Release (迅遁, Jinton; Viz "Quick Style") is an advanced nature kekkei genkai that can be used to move with instantaneous speed, granting the user an advantage over opponents with more strength than speed, such as users of Chakra Enhanced Strength. This nature therefore renders the user invulnerable against most taijutsu. During the time her team was ambushed, she utilised the Swift Release: Shadowless Flight to escape the attacks of her opponents and to gain advantage over them with her speed.
Sensory Perception
Seina can expand her range to detect the presence of others, easily discern whether or not a specific individual are among a crowd, pick up chakra from long distances, and determine if targets are approaching her and how many or what species. She can also determine the size of a target's chakra reserve and potency, and she can also find out if an enemy is using a clone technique, and indicate if someone, including herself, is trapped in genjutsu.
Bukijutsu
She has regularly displayed great skill in various ninja tools, such as the ability to infuse her kunai with chakra, and also to quickly slash at her opponents as a way of defence.
Nature Transformation
With the Swift element, she can move at superhuman speed and strike at various angles quickly, rendering all taijutsu and power-users useless against her.
Ninjutsu
Medical Ninjutsu
Seina's chakra control allowed her to learn the aspects of medical ninjutsu. With this, she has learned to use the Mystical Palm Technique, which she uses to heal her teammates and sensei with. Her ability allows her to heal deep wounds, stop heavy bleeding, and to also identify potential diseases in her patient.
Cooperation
Seina seems to collaborate well with others, as she can utilise her Swift Release to aid Saya in performing the Demonic Illusion: Inverted Battle, which aids Saya in making this technique as powerful as it can be.
Trivia
