History
Futaba trains as a student at the Konohagakure Academy, where Konohamaru is among her classmates. Asked by the Third Hokage what each of them would defend, she names her mother and father, her older brother, and Gonta, the family dog. In an anime-only outing, Neji Hyūga guides her class on a survival drill, and Futaba and the others are impressed as he navigates by reading a wristwatch like a compass. Her name is written to mean "sprout".
