Man, Shikamaru is amazing, even though he might be a lazy bum and think everything is mendokuse(troublesome) . I want to steal his brain XDD He thinks wayyyy in advance and has everything nicely planned out. His jutsu is pretty cool too, being able to hold on to people from their shadows. I love his friendship with Chouji, they're so close. Both believe in each other no matter what. It's funny how he finds women troublesome, seeing as how most of his major opponets have been women XDD and for the record I ship shikatemI'm pretty much like him(being lllazzzyyy), all I need is his IQ!! grrr XD yay for the smartical ninja that became a chunin so fast

<-- Check the icon.
Sometimes I think that this show should be called "Shikamaru" instead of "Naruto". He's just that awesome.

Shikamaru has to be my favorite charector. I just love him. I can't really say why I like him so much, I just think he is a very likable charector. lol.

Shikamaru's awesome! His brain is part of what makes the show the way it is; clever. I could watch him strategize all day.....though I'm sure he wouldn't like that.

Shikamaru is one of my favorite characters (Lee being on top, always). Like all of the characters in Naruto, he's so complex. On the surface he's just this lazy, grumpy kid. But there's so much more to him. He's my favorite kind of genius. I hate people who are incredibly smart and feel the need to tell you, every day, just how smart they are. Shikamaru makes it clear that he didn't ask to be born a genius; he doesn't flaunt his intelligence all over the place, and he's not a mad overachiever. He just happens to be intellectually gifted. I love his laid-back attitude; he doesn't waste energy getting worked up over things. I wish I were more like that. He gives new meaning to the phrase, "Work smarter, not harder." One of the best parts about him is that while he's normally incredibly lazy, he gives it his all when the situation calls for it. And I, too, like his relationship with Chouji. The two of them are just so cute. They're both incredibly different, but they understand each other.

Lol. I agree. I did not really think about him flaunting it, but it is really cool that he does nothing of the sort. And im so happy he passed the chunnin exams and gets to be group leader! Hes so cool as the person in charge!

Smart guys are foxy; especially the ones that don't shove it down your throat every five minutes, lol. Shikamaru takes great pains to play down his intelligence, and I find this extremely endearing. Another thing about him that I always liked was his reluctance to hit girls. Even in the most serious of situations, he makes me grin and say, "How cute!" when he mentions to whatever female he happens to be fighting that he generally doesn't hit ladies. He's just chivalrous like that. His friendship with Chouji is probably my favorite thing about him. I have this wierd thing for friendship (whenever I witness great friendship in books, movies, manga or what have you, I tend to start crying, choking out, "It's so beautiful) and the Shikamaru/Chouji relationship is no exception. When Chouji was fighting that Sound Four guy (what's his name? I never cared enough to learn it, lol) and he had those flashbacks, I squeed with joy at the sight of lil' Shika! He's a genuinely compassionate individual --- we see this time and again. I was so happy when I learned that Shikamaru and I have the same birthday. Oh, the Shikamaru-lover's pride!

You're lucky; I don't share anyone's Birthday.

Most of the recent episodes have made me sob, too, lol. Like in the most recent English dubbed episode, where Naruto shouts "Come on, buddy --- let's go home!" and there were a couple of brief flashbacks, I started to sob. Same goes for the Chouji bit. I was so worried for him! I mean, I knew he was going to come out all right, because my loverly friends spoiled it for me , but I was still crying about it. I'm starting to think that I'm a tad too sensitive, lol. Has anyone else read Volume 26 yet? I just got finished with it, and that last panel where Shikamaru is crying, saying that "Next time, the mission will be perfect! I promise!" I almost died. It was so incredibly heart-rending, I could barely stand it.

Oh, the Shikamaru-lover's pride! *Glomps lil' Shika* Hes so adorable!I dont know if they could have made him look any cuter!!! Omg, Shikamaru always has a pretty sad part in the mission, doesent he? Mentioning all the things would be a pretty big amount of spoilers though, so I will only name a few: The Sound 4, Having to leave Chouju behind? You can tell he was worried, even though he keep saying Chouji was going to kill the other guy and you could tell it was eating him up on the inside. And When Asuma died. It speeks for itself

Omg, Katie, I totally agree!
I love how the whole Asuma thing really gave him a sort of angry, driving force. I feel avenger-style angst coming on!
