Cho-Cho Akimichi (あきみちチョウチョウ, Akimichi Chōchō) is a kunoichi and a member of Konohagakure's Akimichi Clan. Together with her teammates Inojin Yamanaka and Shikadai Nara, she forms the seventeenth generation of the Ino–Shika–Chō trio.

Background[]

Cho-Cho is the only child of Karui and Chōji Akimichi. As her parents continued to stay close to their childhood friends over the years, Cho-Cho ultimately came to know the various parents' respective kids well. In the anime, when she was younger, Cho-Cho had very high fever. Her parents worked earnestly to get a special medicine for her, which caused Chōji trim down so much that Cho-Cho didn't recognise him, making her have lingering doubts about her parentage. On the day of the Seventh Hokage's inauguration, Cho-Cho attended the ceremony with her parents, where she ran into Sarada Uchiha.

Personality[]

Like her father, Cho-Cho never turns down an invitation when it comes to food. This is evident when she skips her training with her fellow Ino–Shika–Chō members in favour of going to eat with her sensei, Anko Mitarashi. Rather than feeling guilty for this, Cho-Cho displayed indifference to the consequences. In stark contrast to her father, who was always quick to rile when his weight was brought up, she was easily able to brush off being called fat. Her weight, in fact, doesn't seem to bother her at all, rather, Cho-Cho appears to be quite confident and self-assured — a trait she perhaps inherited from her mother.

A few years later, however, Cho-Cho started to become conscious about her appearance, and would actively try to lose a few pounds, only to fail upon seeing her father's excessive eating habits. This, coupled with her own mother having no problem with weight, has humorously caused Cho-Cho to believe she is adopted. She became impulsively convinced that any random adult she would find impressive is possibly her real parent. Ironically, upon approaching Chōji's slimmer form after using his Calorie Control, she approached him in the same manner. Having chosen to walk down her own path, Cho-Cho believes in doing everything at her own pace. She seems to be somewhat self-centred, as she thinks that many situations and events revolve around her.

Appearance[]

Cho-Cho's full appearance.

Cho-Cho is a dark-skinned girl with amber-coloured eyes and a noticeably heftier physique, similarly to most people of her clan. She inherited her father's brown hair (portrayed as orange (or blonde) in the Boruto manga), which she styles in two spiky ponytails, kept back with a pink hair-band. The rest of her hair is left hanging down behind her back, with her bangs hanging over her left eye. She was first seen wearing a sleeveless red shirt, and white pants. Cho-Cho later upgraded her attire, donning a sleeveless white kimono with a net t-shirt under it, a pair of black arm warmers, and a pair of black long shinobi boots. As customary of her clan, both of her ears are pierced by grey stud earrings.

Her outfit later changes to a sleeveless pink kimono, with a net t-shirt under it, a red sash with butterfly decorations tied around her waist, a pair of black arm warmers and regular shinobi sandals.

Abilities[]

Ninjutsu[]

Cho-Cho can use Lightning Release to perform the Lightning Release: Thunderclap Fist (雷遁・迅雷拳, Raiton: Jinraiken) technique.

Akimichi Clan Techniques[]

As a member of the Akimichi clan, Cho-Cho is able to convert her calories into chakra to use for various body-expanding techniques. Before graduating from the Academy, she was already able to use the Partial Multi-Size Technique. By the time of her Chūnin Exams, Cho-Cho had mastered more advanced techniques of her clan, such as the Super Multi-Size Technique, Human Bullet Tank, and Butterfly Transformation Technique (蝶化の術, Chōka no Jutsu).

History[]

Academy Entrance Arc[]

In the anime, two weeks into the Academy, Cho-Cho was left amazed at how reckless Boruto Uzumaki was compared to his father, and asked Sarada whether she knows him. Later, she joined the rest of the class to watch the fight between Boruto and Iwabee Yuino, after which Cho-Cho teased Sumire when she expressed her happiness with how Boruto was able to get along with the classmates. During a class introducing students to summoning techniques, Boruto and Sarada got into another argument, which sparked an argument between all the boys and girls. During lunch break, Cho-Cho bought nearly all the yakisoba buns, which sparked another fight between Sarada and Boruto over the last one. Shino appeared, insisting that they boys and girls settle things with a race challenge for a flag. The challenge quickly got heated, leading to a desperate Boruto using a summoning scroll and miraculously summoned a snake-like creature. The creature went on a rampage, attacking the students and launched Cho-Cho off the roof, to which Boruto managed to save her with the help of some other students. After the creature was subdued by the timely arrival of Konohamaru, the contest ended with the girls getting the flag. Despite their victory, the girls made peace with the boys.

Later, the class gained a new transfer student from Otogakure named Mitsuki. Wanting the students to warm up to Mitsuki, Shino organised a welcoming party for the new student. Cho-Cho quickly began digging into the food. When Shino's efforts for the party backfired with his insects, the class began to freak out, with Denki begging someone to make the insects go away, which Mitsuki did with his Wind Release: Breakthrough, causing even more damage to the Academy. When one of the repairmen went berserk and started to destroy the Academy, while her classmates went into actions, Cho-Cho decided to stay behind and "guard" the potato chips.

Later, Sumire realises that she is being stalked. Eventually, Cho-Cho and her friends discover that it is Magire a shy student from a different class. When Cho-Cho assumed that he was interested in her, Magire quickly denied it and accidentally admitted his feelings towards Sumire. Cho-Cho insisted that he be more forward with his feelings. When Magire meekly asks her out, Sumire turned him down, leaving him distraught and running away in shame. The following day, various creepy messages are left for Sumire. While Cho-Cho and the others decide to watch over her, they are systematically separated from Sumire. Eventually, the perpetrator is revealed to be a possessed Magire, who kidnaps Sumire. Cho-Cho and the others soon find them, where Magire quickly attacked them with his concealment skills. Eventually, Cho-Cho was able to reach Magire, noting that such an indecisive nature will never win anyone over. Accepting his poor methods of trying to make Sumire like him, the spectre was rejected from Magire. As Magire began to apologise for his actions he fainted, resulting from severe chakra drain caused from his possession. The group then quickly take him to the hospital.

Later, the class was assigned by Shino to split into groups of three and each tail a different workplace for a few days to better understand non-shinobi life. Cho-Cho convinced Sarada to check out both the nail salon and the pastry factory. The following day, Cho-Cho angrily went to the post office, noting that her special order of a limited-edition potato chip was suppose to arrive the day before. It was soon deduced that Boruto's sloppy delivery of mail was behind this. Later, Cho-Cho checked on some of her friends after learning that they were hospitalised from a recent attack. Afterwards, she was recruited by Shikadai to go after the culprit. She and her friends the met up at the post office to discuss their plan. After splitting up to patrol the village, the culprit of the attacks unleashed his Shadow Spectre on the post chief Komame. Cho-Cho's group however quickly appeared, having anticipated this move as all their recent efforts were clearly being spied on. While half the team stayed to save the possessed Komame, Cho-Cho's half pursued the masked culprit. While the post chief was saved, the spectre and the culprit ultimately got away.

Several weeks later, Shino decided to change up the three-man teams for their next challenge to determine the optimum pairings for graduation. Cho-Cho decided to team up with Inojin and Shikadai. When Iwabee noted that they were essentially forming the Ino-Shika-Chō trio like their respective parents, the team admitted that their techniques were naturally compatible. Cho-Cho also noted that good teams don't need to be friends, only work well together. During their challenge to capture a flag, Shikadai took advantage of Lee's social-anxiety, noting how everyone was watching him. While Lee froze up, Cho-Cho quickly knocked him out. Shino was then called aside concerning Sumire. As the class began discussing rumours that Sumire was being transferred to a different school, they were relieved to see her return to their class.

After their sensei ended classes early due to the impending Five Kage Summit, Cho-Cho skipped her training with Inojin and Shikadai when Anko invited her to the dango shop to eat some anmitsu, despite Inojin's protests. She casually dismissed him even after being called fat and left.

Sarada Uchiha Arc[]

Upon hearing that her class will be going through the graduation exam in a week, Cho-Cho was only interested in if it could help her lose some weight. Later, she met up with Chōji, who embarrassed Cho-Cho simply because of his choice of flavoured chips to walk around with. In a restaurant, Cho-Cho complained that her father's excessive eating is making it difficult for her to control her own eating habits when she's trying to lose weight, only to be further annoyed with her mother's "hands off" policy on the matter. Cho-Cho told Sarada that she believes she is adopted, due to how different she found herself to her parents, much to Sarada's humour as she was actually suffering from a possible discrepancy in her own parentage. Mitsuki simply told her that drama of this type is typical of a girl her age, but Cho-Cho ignored him and invited Sarada on a road trip to "find her real parents". Later, when Sarada began to tail Naruto, Cho-Cho followed her, still believing they are embarking on a journey to discover her "real parents" and even assumed that her "real father" might be good-looking.

Chōchō Vs Shin

Cho-Cho facing Shin.

As she learned that Sarada was looking for her own father as well and was going to follow the Seventh Hokage to do so, Boruto soon appeared with a lunch prepared by his mother for Naruto. As Naruto had already left the village, Sarada decided to use this as an excuse to meet up with Naruto and asked Boruto to let her deliver it. After it was agreed that Cho-Cho and Sarada would bring the lunch, the two quickly took off. Soon afterwards, they were ambushed by Shin. While Cho-Cho and Sarada were quickly overwhelmed, the two were soon saved by Naruto's timely arrival. After a quick display of Seventh Hokage's might, Shin retreated and Cho-Cho was left in awe, hoping that maybe Naruto was her "real" father, much to Naruto's confusion. Deciding it would be safest to keep the two kunoichi with him, Naruto decided to let them join him on meeting with Sasuke Uchiha. Before setting out, the three shared some bento.

Soon afterwards, Sarada went ahead under the guise of using the restroom while Naruto stayed to watch Cho-Cho catch her breath. Upon catching up with Sarada, they found her in the company of her estranged father, Sasuke, who Cho-Cho thought might be her real father simply because he was handsome. She then offered Sasuke her bag of chips to try and make up with his daughter. Later, Cho-Cho joined everyone in the search for Shin. When Sasuke activated his Rinnegan and prepared to take everyone with him in his Susanoo, Cho-Cho again admired Sasuke's abilities. In the new dimension, they ultimately found Sakura Uchiha engaged in battle with Shin. As Sasuke subdued Shin with Susanoo and checked on his wife's condition, Cho-Cho complained about Sasuke being Sarada's father and not hers. Cho-Cho then overlooked the battle against thousands of Shin clones.

After the Shin clones were defeated, Cho-Cho approached Sarada, voicing her amazement at her friend's strength and noted with surprise that Sarada's eyes had become similar to her father's. On their way back to the village, Cho-Cho expressed her annoyance at being unable to find her real father but finding Sarada's instead. However as they approached the village gates, Cho-Cho approached a man whom she felt was familiar and might be her real father. She was shocked to find out that it was actually Chōji, who had just got back from a mission with Ino Yamanaka. She then began questioning her father on how he had suddenly lost so much weight and asked if it was some sort of secret technique passed down through their clan. Now in awe of her father's weight loss, Cho-Cho demanded that he will begin training her the next day.

Versus Momoshiki Arc[]

While shopping with her father, Cho-Cho was irritated to find that all the food on the shelves had been bought by Naruto's shadow clones. Cho-Cho enters the Chūnin Exams alongside Inojin and Shikadai. The first round is a true or false quiz which turned out to be a sham as both answers were incorrect and every team was dropped into an ink pit. Fortunately, Shikadai was able to use his shadow to prevent himself and his teammates from falling into the ink pit and thus allowing them to continue to the second round.

Shinki Defeats Chōchō

Cho-Cho defeated by Shinki.

The second round consisted of teams battling against each other for flags. Cho-Cho was sent out to retrieve another teams flag while her teammates stayed behind to guard their own flag. She was ultimately successful in capturing another flag and securing victory for her team. During the third round, however, Cho-Cho was defeated by Shinki.
