Sukima
CharacterSukima is a genin of Konohagakure best remembered for a quick exit from the Chūnin Exams. Seated just behind Naruto Uzumaki in the written round, he became the very first examinee caught cheating the limit of five times, washing out his whole team.
Appearance
Long brown hair falls across the right side of Sukima's face. He dresses in a green high-collared shirt with matching trousers, sandals, and bandaging strapped around his left leg.
Personality
What little defines Sukima is a streak of carelessness, borne out when he was the earliest examinee to slip up and get flagged. Fittingly, his name points to a gap or opening, and by extension to inattention.
History
Sukima sat the first stage of the Chūnin Exams directly behind Naruto Uzumaki. Roughly twenty-five minutes in, he became the first candidate caught cheating the maximum five times, which disqualified him along with the rest of his team. Kotetsu Hagane marked the fifth strike by hurling a kunai into his answer sheet.
