It seems that there was a contest for leadership of Team 8 during the Chūnin Exams, as Kiba said Hinata voted for him. Kiba often sees himself as the group leader, and becomes offended at any of Shino's actions that he perceives as challenging his leadership. Even after becoming a team, Kiba often argues with Shino over what course of action the group should take, particularly when Shino advises caution. And, despite his rather gruff attitude, many of Kiba's actions reveal that he is very close to his older sister, Hana, and remains fiercely loyal to his clan and has great pride in it.īack at his academy days, Shino always considered Kiba a "problem child", and wanted to be assigned to a team with anyone but him because of how different their personalities were to each other.
He cares deeply for Akamaru, and is willing to do whatever is necessary to protect him. He also enjoys combat even when facing particularly strong opponents. Kiba is often short-tempered and impulsive (in stark contrast to his teammates Shino and Hinata), and can be prone to making mistakes when he becomes agitated in battle. Despite this, Kiba stays in a close relationship with his sister and mother, although he seems to agree that Tsume is rather frightening. This caused Kiba to find Naruto incompetent, and he became among those who ridiculed him.Īt some time in the past, Kiba knew his father but because of his mother's attitude, Tsume scared him away, leaving him just with her and his sister Hana Inuzuka. One day, Kiba fell asleep during class and, upon waking, saw Naruto attempting to use the Transformation Technique to turn into the Third Hokage for the first time, and failing twice. They thought that it was fun to also test the patience of Iruka Umino, their Academy instructor. Together, these four would skip class and go to the practice hall (not to practice). During Kiba's time at the Academy, he often cut class with Akamaru, stating that he wasn't suited to sit still at a desk, or otherwise getting into trouble, along with Chōji Akimichi, Shikamaru Nara, and Naruto Uzumaki. Before entering the Academy, Kiba and Akamaru played together a great deal, resulting in Tsume getting angry because they weren't training enough.
