Mujin
CharacterMujin is a Sunagakure genin who teams with Sajin and Mijin. He appears in the anime's retelling of a joint Chunin Exams, where his squad's fate turns on a written round whose scoring puzzle and hidden loyalty trap ultimately gets them disqualified.
Appearance
Brown hair stands up short and spiky above Mujin's brow, where he ties a blue Suna headband. Grey metallic guards wrap over his eyes and ears, and a pair of green lines runs down his cheeks from just beneath each eye.
Personality
The source reveals little of his temperament, showing a genin who defers to his squad's tactician and moves on his teammate's cues throughout the exam.
History
When Konoha and Suna staged a joint Chunin Exams, Mujin travelled to the Leaf for the opening written round and was split off into a separate room from his teammates. Shikamaru Nara laid out the rules: each candidate answered a single question, but a team's totals had to reach exactly one hundred to advance. Using his Sand Characters, Sajin relayed which item each member should attempt.
A second question then demanded the squad unanimously name who they would sacrifice as a decoy, and Sajin signalled them to pick Mijin. The twist undid them: choosing anyone at all counted as failure, since the real test measured loyalty, and Temari announced that any team missing a member was immediately disqualified.
