Character Profile: Might Guy

Might Gai is the arch rival of Kakashi Hatake, leader of squad seven. The two of them compete in all sorts of different events to prove who is the better ninja. Some of their competitions include 100 meter dashes, wrestling, eating contests, and rock paper scissors. They keep score, and Gai has a record of 50 wins and 49 losses. (And to top that, Gai is faster and probably stronger than Kakashi.)

Although they seem to be highly competitive in everything they do, they also share a special bond close friends. Gai is a highly skilled Jonin and a master of tai jutsu and has a very close, emotional bond with his student Rock Lee. There are many similarities between the two, like their bushy eyebrows, green jump suits, orange leg warmers, shiny bowl haircuts, and rather goofy nature which seems to make their opponents under estimate them, however both are very strong and competent in their fighting. They have many secret techniques which they are dying to show off to prove that they deserve recognition, and Lee finally gets it when he fights Gaara in the Chunin exams.

Gai and Lee also have similar skills seeing they both use tai jutsu. Gai is a very good and loving sensei, but he has his show of tough love which he insists builds character. Other than that, he a perfectly happy, go lucky, goof ball. Because of his quirky nature, he is also used in many of the filler episodes, and provides endless comic relief, for he is by far the most emotional, dramatic character in the entire series. That is why Might Gai is my favorite character, I love him.
