Pakkun (パックン) is a miniature pug, and the smallest of Kakashi Hatake's ninken.

Background

Ninken summoned to search Orochi

Pakkun and the other ninken are summoned to search Orochimaru.

In the anime, some time after Pakkun and the other ninken made a contract with Kakashi, they aided him to search the abducted Rin Nohara by Kirigakure shinobi and acted as a diversion in order to allow them to flee.[1] They also helped searching for the fleeing Orochimaru,[2] allowing Kakashi and the Root Anbu Kinoe pursue him into the residence of the Iburi clan to save the only survivor, Yukimi.[3]

Personality

Despite his cute appearance, his voice is deep and gruff. In the anime, he revealed that he used Floral Green shampoo (English TV: Minty Rain Forest Mist Shampoo with extra bodywash), which is also used by Sakura, who was comically traumatised at the thought of using the same shampoo as a dog.[4] In Japanese, Pakkun uses "washi" (ワシ) when referring to himself, which is generally used by older men. Despite his lazy demeanour, Pakkun is shown to be fiercely proud and determined ninken. When offered by Sai to deliver a message with one of his ink creatures, Pakkun insisted that he deliver it, not wanting to look inferior. He is very loyal to his allies and at times curses his inability to get more directly involved in battle.

Appearance
