Raido Namiashi serves as the Third Hokage's assistant during the Chunin Exams, and is characterized by a large scar on his left cheek. "Namiashi" means "walking pace" while "Raido" means "following blindly". After the Chunin Exams, Raido and Genma Shiranui confront the Sound Four, who are forced to go to level two of their cursed seals to defeat them. The Sound Four later comment that if it hadn't been for their cursed seals, Genma and Raido would have defeated them. In Part II Raido appears as a member of the Niju Shotai, assisting Asuma Sarutobi's team in the fight against Akatsuki. After Aoba Yamashiro covers the area in crows, Raido, dressed in black with a black sword, is able to sneak up on and attack Kakuzu. While he is unable to damage Kakuzu, he is able to learn some valuable information about Kakuzu's defensive capabilities.
Raiga Kurosuki is a former member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, like Zabuza Momochi and Kisame Hoshigaki (both of whom he apparently disliked, along with the rest of the members) were. Unlike those two, however, he wields two pike-like swords which he uses in a manner similar to lightning rods to attract and channel lightning and electricity. Raiga's shorter swords stand in stark contrast to the other swords seen thus far, but he can connect them at their hilts to form a larger double-bladed sword, effectively increasing the weapon's size and allowing him to perform different and more powerful jutsus. Like the other two Swordsmen, Raiga was very arrogant and overconfident. He was also somewhat mentally unsound.
Raijun is the large brother of Fuujin. Like his brother, he too is from the fire country and is a slow-minded powerhouse. He will do anything food, and would often escape from his cell just for more. He was hired by Mizuki to help take revenge on Konoha, but was defeated by Tsunade and her brute strength. He is currently back in prison.
The first Rain Genin team consisting of Baiu, Midare, and Shigure, confronts Gaara and his siblings during the second phase of the Chunin Exams. Shigure attacks Gaara by throwing his umbrellas into the air and releasing the needles kept within them for his Sprinkling Needles attack. As the needles fall to the ground, Shigure controls them with his chakra to surround Gaara and fire them at him with increased speed and accuracy. Gaara's Shield of Sand blocks the attack with ease, and Shigure retaliates. As he charges, he is trapped by Gaara's Desert Coffin and then killed with Desert Funeral. Although Baiu and Midare attempt to surrender, they are killed in the same fashion.
The second Rain Genin team consists of Kagari, Mubi, and Oboro. All three wear breathers, matching wetsuits, and a cloth over their eyes, with each member having a different number of eyeholes in their cloth. Early in the second phase of the Chunin Exams, Oboro restrains and turns himself into Naruto Uzumaki, though he is soon found out by Sasuke Uchiha. Sasuke easily gains the upper hand and injures Oboro, forcing him to flee.
Ranmaru is a young orphan from Kirigakure. Like Haku, Ranmaru has an androgynous appearance, but he is never mistaken for a girl. Although formally paralyzed, his kekkei genkai allows him to see through walls and create illusions with real chakra circulatory systems, as well as interfering with the usage of the Byakugan and other vaguely defined powers relating to vision. When activated, the bloodline causes his eyes to momentarily glow red. After befriending Raiga, he was able to move around on Raiga's back, and in return used his bloodline ability to predict the movements of Raiga's enemies.
Rin was a medical ninja and the teammate of Kakashi Hatake and Obito Uchiha under Minato Namikaze. She had intimate feelings for Kakashi, but he ignored her. In turn, Obito had a crush on her, but she ignored him. During the Kakashi Guyden arc, Rin is kidnapped by enemy ninja and Obito and Kakashi try to save her. In their effort, Obito is crushed in a enemy-created rockslide, leaving him unable to escape with his teammates. At Obito's request, Rin implants Obito's remaining Sharingan eye into Kakashi's left eye socket (which had been damaged during the battle) as a gift to Kakashi. Kakashi then vows to protect Rin with his life, at Obito's request. Her status is currently unknown, but she presumably has died, as Kakashi has said that everyone close to him is dead.
Rock Lee is unable to mold his chakra due to his underdeveloped chakra coils, leaving him unable to use any ninjutsu or genjutsu. His fellow students teased him for this handicap while he was in the Academy, though Lee ignored their words and began specializing in Taijutsu, hoping to become a powerful ninja despite his inability. Upon being assigned to Team Guy, Might Guy took a personal interest in Lee's attempts to prove himself and began to help him in his dream of excelling in Taijutsu. With Guy's assistance Lee learned many advanced Taijutsu abilities, bringing him ever closer to achieving his goal of becoming a splendid ninja. Lee looks up to Guy as a father type figure. Lee has a number of other odd personality traits, though whether or not they are results of Guy's mentorship is unknown. One such trait is his apparent lack of common sense, believing at times that he can get what he wants by not wanting it. At other times, he takes copious notes, but forgets that he cannot check them during a fight. He also has a keen sense of honor, refusing to hold grudges against those who have defeated him and returning favors to those that have helped him. Lee feels others should show the same respect, and is disgusted whenever someone is unnecessarily cruel to their opponent.
