Biography

Origin

Choji Akimichi (Japanese: 秋道チョウジ, Hepburn: Akimichi Chōji) was a male member of the Akimichi Clan (秋道一族, Akimichi Ichizoku) of Konogakure where he was the son of Chōza Akimichi (秋道チョウザ, Akimichi Chōza). He was slated to be the Sixteenth Head of the Akimichi (秋道16代目当主, Akimichi Jūrokudaime Tōshu) where he was trained to be new successor to the family. As a child, he was often put down for not being very good in the game of 'Ninja' that resembled hide and seek that employed the use of card board shuriken to tag a person. In that time, a school mate named Shinta often berated Choji and often claimed that any team with Akimichi was sure to lose. Eventually, this culminated in them refusing to play with him at all. However, Shikamar Nara decided to stick up for Choji and even claimed that the teams would be uneven if Akimichi was not allowed to join them. This gave Choji some hope though the other children still refused to let him play with them.

Overview

Personality and attributes

Choji was shown to be a very kind, polite, and caring person. These characteristics were said to be his greatest strength by both his father Chōza and his former teacher Asuma Sarutobi while his greatest weakness was his lack of self-confidence.

Despite his relatively portly appearance, Choji insisted he was not fat and instead using explanations like being 'big-boned'. It was shown that he took great offence if someone referred to him as fat causing him to become hostile and increase his resolve to battle. This was regardless if it was a ally or foe who made the comment with his friends often trying to stop others from saying those words.

By adulthood, he came to marry Karui Akimichi (秋道カルイ, Akimichi Karui) who had been a kunoichi from Kumogakure with the couple having a daughter they named Chōchō Akimichi (秋道チョウチョウ, Akimichi Chōchō).

Powers and abilities

Choji Akimichi was a male human with the ability to manipulate chakra allowing him to perform a variety of jutsu. As an Akimichi, he was able to convert the calories he consumed into chakra with this being the reason for his husky appearance and frequent eating habits. With the stored chakra, he could perform a number of trademark techniques of his clan that involved the Multi-Size Technique.

He knew several fighting techniques that included:

• Partial Multi-Size Technique (部分倍化の術­ Bubun Baika no Jutsu) :
• Multi-Size Technique (倍化の術­ Baika no Jutsu) :
• Super Multi-Size Technique (超倍化の術­ Chō Baika no Jutsu) :
• Human Bullet Tank (肉弾戦車­ Nikudan Sensha) :
• Spiked Human Bullet Tank (肉弾針戦車­ Nikudan Hari Sensha) :

A special ability of his clan was the power to enter into Butterfly Mode (蝶モード­ Chō Mōdo) that was a heightened transformation. This mode was entered into by converting the calories of their body into chakra. The chakra as it became visible was then shaped into two large butterfly wings that could be compressed into smaller wings.
