Manabu Akado

He has a head of brown hair which is kept out of his face by his forehead protector which is tied at the side of his head. He also wears circular glasses which have no handles and has a bristling moustache. Attire-wise he wears a plain white long-sleeved shirt which is buttoned all the way up, a yellow tie, and a brown vest along with a pair of dark-coloured pants.

In the anime, Manabu entered the Academy at the same time as Kakashi Hatake and others. After he graduated, he unsuccessfully tried to become a chūnin many times, taking part in the first round of the Chūnin Exams at least seventeen times.
