Iruka Umino

Academy Teacher

Having been left an orphan from the Nine Tails attack, Iruka grew up isolated, much like the blonde haired boy he chose to blame for his parents’ deaths. Despite this, he would grow into a respectable and capable chunin, eventually becoming an academy teacher, where he found his true calling. Through guiding his students, Iruka was able to make the connections he desired as a child. However, it was the connection to a certain blonde haired scapegoat that would ultimately test his virtue as a teacher.

Iruka is an excellent teacher (when you pay attention to him). Through his unconsciously motherly attitude and desire to watch his students succeed, he is shown to help the majority of his class graduate (post-academy exams notwithstanding). However, Iruka is not one to be taken lightly, especially when it comes to his students’ safety. He can have a surprisingly short temper, but otherwise keeps his head on his shoulders at all times. And much like his eventual favorite student, he has an unbreakable determination to protect his precious people.

For Iruka, we’re looking someone who can give off a naturally calm vibe, but still give off some yells when needed. Overly nasal voices mimicking Vegeta3986 are not necessary, nor are comically high-pitched voices mimicking LittleKuriboh. Other than that, go wild.
