Matsuri (マツリ, Matsuri) is an Academy student in Konohagakure.
Part I
Chūnin Exam Arc
Iruka Umino takes Matsuri and her class to an outdoor lecture beneath the Hokage Monument to discuss the Hokage. The Third Hokage visits them there and encourages the children to protect those they care about. Matsuri asks if there is anyone that he cares about enough to protect, to which he replies that he would fight for "everyone in the village".
Invasion of Konoha Arc
She and her class are later evacuated to behind the Hokage Monument during the invasion of Konoha.
Anime fillers
She appears in episode 142 of the anime, seeing off the Sand Siblings with Shikamaru and some other students to thank them for teaching at the Academy for a short period of time. She appears again in episode 158, going on a training mission with Hinata Hyūga to Mount Takurami. When a big storm emerged the team was lucky enough to have a tent, protecting them from the heavy rain.
Trivia
- Matsuri's name can mean festival (祭) or Arabian jasmine (茉莉).
- She makes a cameo appearance in an omake of Naruto Shippūden's episode 73.
