Hanabi Hyuuga

Hanabi Hyuuga was once an angry little girl whose talents seemed to outweigh those of her older sisters. Now, she's a doting aunt to her sisters' children and the heiress of the Hyuuga clan.
While Boruto, Sarada, Mitsuki, and the other new characters who were introduced in Boruto are awesome in their own right, one of the best things about the sequel to Naruto is finding out what's going on with all the characters viewers are already familiar with. With that in mind, let's take a look at what Naruto characters look like in Boruto - and what they've been up to since the time skip. Some characters, like Kakashi Hatake, look pretty much exactly the same, while others, like Anko Mitarashi, have noticeably changed. In terms of their life paths, everyone probably expected that Naruto Uzumaki would become the Hokage, but who would have thought that Shino Aburame would become a school teacher? Do you like these changes, or do you think that they could use a redesign?

Hanabi Hyuuga was once an angry little girl whose talents seemed to outweigh those of her older sisters. Now, she's a doting aunt to her sisters' children and the heiress of the Hyuuga clan.

At the end of Shippuden, Mirai is only a baby. She's grown up to be a serious, hardworking ninja who uses techniques she inherited from both of her parents.

Konohamaru is the grandson of the third Hokage, but when he first appeared he was a bratty little boy Now, he's a full-grown man who works as a jounin instructor - specifically, he's the head of the new Team 7, which consists of Boruto, Sarada, and Mitsuki.

Much to his mother's relief, Shikamaru Nara has gone from whiny-but-brilliant teenager to responsible family man and professional ninja. He and Temari are married with a son named Shikadai, and he works as the Hokage's right-hand man.

Kakashi's appearance has hardly changed at all since Boruto. Why doesn't he seem to have aged at all? Perhaps because after years of working as the Hokage, he's finally semi-retired.

Once a teacher at Ninja Academy, Iruka Umino now works as the principal. He also participated in Naruto's wedding to Hinata as his father figure.

Hinata Hyuuga's ninja days are largely behind her. These days, her housewife duties take up most of her time. She's Naruto's wife, and Boruto and Himawari's mother.

Sakura still works as a ninja and a medical professional, but now she's added motherhood to the mix. She and Sasuke have a daughter named Sarada, and for most of Sarada's life, it's been Sakura who's taking on the bulk of the parenting.

Tenten's ninja career has taken a back seat to her new endeavor - selling weapons. Considering her love of swords, this seems like an apt career shift for her.

Karin has calmed down a lot since Shippudden. Not only does she accept Sasuke's lack of romantic interest in her, but she also works for Orochimaru out of her own free will. Overall, she's a lot happier, and that shows in both her attitude and her appearance.

Sasuke was once hellbent on revenge against the city that took his family from him. Now he serves Konoha as a high-ranking ninja and is trying to rebuild his relationship with his daughter.

Kiba Inuzuka has graduated from loud teenager crushing on Hinata to cool dude with a classic rock aesthetic who lives with his girlfriend Tamaki. He's part of the Konoha Military Police Force, and he's also a reputable animal breeder.

As an adult, Rock Lee is still pursuing his ninja career with vigor and excitement. The difference is that now he has a young son named Metal, a boy with a far more subdued personality than his father's.

Darui once served under the Raikage, but now he's taken over the job. Based on his new appearance, it seems like the stress might be getting to him.

When Shippuden ended, Naruto Uzumaki was a talented ninja who dreamed of becoming the Hokage. In Boruto, he's achieved his goal, but that leaves him with little time for his wife and children.

With his antisocial and eccentric personality, Shino doesn't exactly seem like the kind of guy who would want to teach children. Nevertheless, he begins working at Ninja Academy, and is Boruto's homeroom teacher.

Kabuto Yakushi has been through a lot. He started off as an orphan who was picked up to be Orochimaru's assistant, then became involved with the Akatsuki. Today, he's a kindly caretaker at the Konoha Orphanage - but his appearance is more Orochimaru-like than ever.

Onoki first appears in Shippuden as the Tsuchikage - but more has changed than just his appearance. In Boruto, Onoki has actually become a villain.

Once feared by his entire village, Gaara now serves as the Kazekage. In his free time, he tends to his cactus garden.

Once a full time tokubetsu jounin, Anko Mitarashi has stepped away from full time missions and has started working at Ninja Academy. Her love of dango has caught up with her, causing a marked change in her physique.
