General Information
Name: Kisame Hoshigaki
Nickname: Monster of the Hidden Mist
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Looks: Kisame is a very tall and strong shinobi, with a distinctive shark-like appearance, complete with pale blue skin, small white eyes, gill-like facial structures, and sharp triangular teeth. When he removed his cloak he was shown to have gills on his shoulders. Even his name, Kisame (鬼鮫), means "Demon Shark". Kisame also wears a dark purple nail color, like Itachi. Underneath his Akatsuki cloak, Kisame wears an outfit similar to the one that his colleague,
Zabuza Momochi, wore during his first appearance. On his left ring finger is his Akatsuki ring, which bears the kanji for
South (南,
nan).
Personality:
Kisame loves to fight. However, he was usually unable to finish his battles, being paired with Itachi who only fights when necessary. When this happens, he has been known to inform his opponent(s) that they "don't know how lucky they are." Like other characters who have trained to be one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Kisame will not hesitate to mutilate his opponents, as seen when he suggested cutting off
Naruto's legs to make him easier to carry, and to prevent the latter from escaping on foot. Despite his aggressive nature, Kisame is very perceptive in battle. He is seemingly aware of any potential danger to his person and can immediately react to it. He is also shown to be analytical, able to quickly deduce the basics behind an opponent's technique.
Kisame is one of the few members of Akatsuki that got along well with his partner. He was very loyal to Itachi, willing to take any commands he was given without question, and constantly looked out for his well-being. Although Kisame does have his pride, he acknowledged Itachi as the stronger of the duo. Madara has noted that, out of all of Akatsuki, Kisame was the closest to Itachi, implying that they were indeed good friends. Kisame also has a deep loathing for
Might Guy since their first encounter, and Guy seemed to continue to agitate him by not remembering who Kisame was when they met again.

Background Information:
Itachi and Kisame's debut.
Kisame accompanied Itachi to
Konoha to help kidnap
Naruto Uzumaki. After the two gained attention due to their unusual clothing, they were stopped by
Asuma Sarutobi and
Kurenai Yūhi. Asuma and Kurenai stood little chance and were quickly defeated, but
Kakashi arrived in time to save their lives. Asuma was able to distract Kisame while Itachi fought Kakashi. He waited patiently for Itachi's victory, but before Itachi delivered the final blow, Kakashi remembered
Jiraiya's warning and recognized the duo as members of Akatsuki from their black cloaks. Itachi changed his mind and ordered Kisame to kidnap Kakashi and kill Asuma and Kurenai. Before he could do so,
Might Guy showed up and kicked an attacking Kisame in the face. Following Guy's arrival, Itachi ordered Kisame to retreat, not wanting to start a large-scale battle. Kisame seemed quite annoyed with Itachi's idea, as he desperately wanted to fight the Konoha shinobi.
Itachi and Kisame then continued to hunt Naruto, finding him under the protection of
Jiraiya. After Itachi hypnotized a woman to distract Jiraiya and leave Naruto alone, Kisame and Itachi confronted Naruto in a hotel hallway. Kisame considered cutting off Naruto's legs so he could not run away, though
Sasuke, Itachi's younger brother, showed up and drew their attention from Naruto. When Naruto attempted to fight, Kisame used
Samehada to absorb all of Naruto's chakra. Kisame then attempted to cut off Naruto's arms so he wouldn't put up a fight. Before he could do this, however, Jiraiya arrived, and defended Naruto. Following the encounter, Kisame and Itachi were driven off by Jiraiya, failing in capturing Naruto.
edit Part II [edit] Rescue Gaara arc Kisame attacking Team Guy.
While Akatsuki extracted the
One-Tailed Shukaku from
Gaara's body, they learned that
Team Guy was nearing their location. Remembering his last encounter with Guy, Kisame volunteered to keep them occupied while the sealing was completed. Pain used the
Shapeshifting Technique to make a duplicate of Kisame's body that would be remotely controlled by Kisame, and engaged Team Guy, but was quickly disappointed to find that Guy didn't remember him. While Guy was barely able to withstand the clone Kisame's attacks, the rest of Team Guy were incapable of trading blows, and were eventually locked within Kisame's
Water Prison Technique. Neji soon freed himself and the rest of his team, using his
Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms. Upon being forced into a corner, Guy opened his
sixth gate, and defeated Kisame's clone with the
Morning Peacock technique.
[edit] Hunt for Itachi arc Kisame successfully managed to capture the
Four-Tailed Monkey, his assigned
tailed beast, without a scratch. During the following Akatsuki meeting to seal the Four-Tails, Kisame and Itachi were informed of
Hebi's formation, with Sasuke as its leader. Kisame was later told by Itachi to stand guard outside the
Abandoned Uchiha Stronghold and to let only Sasuke through. After Sasuke left the rest of Hebi,
Suigetsu (who was a former candidate for The Seven Swordsman of the Mist) started a fight with Kisame, wanting to claim Samehada as his own. It was later revealed that
Zetsu had stopped the fight.
[edit] Hunt for the Eight-Tails arc Following Itachi's death, Kisame is confronted by Tobi, who revealed his identity as
Madara Uchiha. Recognizing him as a former
Mizukage, Kisame commented that he felt a lot better knowing it was Madara who was pulling the strings. Kisame later assist with the sealing of the
Eight-Tails captured by Sasuke. When this turns out to be a fake, Kisame notes that the Eight-Tails' host,
Killer Bee, fooled Sasuke.
[edit] Five Kage Summit arc Kisame merged with
SamehadaAfter Zetsu reported
Pain's death, Madara ordered Kisame to capture the Eight-Tails by himself. Kisame used Samehada to find Killer Bee, being drawn to Bee's immense chakra. When he arrived at the residence of
Sabu, Kisame was immediately attacked by
Ponta, who he quickly defeated. Bee and Sabu then join forces, Bee even entering a
four-tailed form. Kisame fended them both off and absorbed Bee's chakra cloak. He then removed the bandages from Samehada, noting that it liked the "taste" of Bee's chakra.
Killer Bee entered a
version 2 form and used his
Lariat to destroy Kisame's entire midsection. Kisame fused with Samehada to heal his injuries, becoming a monstrous shark-like creature. After trapping Killer Bee, Sabu, and Ponta inside a
giant, movable dome of water, he continued his assault on Killer Bee. Bee was forced to throw Sabu and Ponta from the dome to save them from drowning, allowing Kisame to overpower him. He dissipated the dome and moved in to finish the job, but was stopped by Samehada, who protected Bee and gave him some chakra. He kicked Samehada away and prepared to try again with one of Bee's own swords.
"
Kisame" being decapitated.
Using the chakra he got from Samehada, Bee attacked Kisame. Kisame barely evaded the attack and tried to cut off Bee's legs, but was stopped by the arrival of Bee's brother: the
Fourth Raikage, and his two bodyguards. After being told how he was discovered because of the large dome of water and noticing Samehada giving more chakra to Bee, The Raikage and Bee join forces against Kisame as he attempted to use
Water Release: Great Shark Missile Technique. Before he could finish the jutsu he was decapitated by their
Double Lariat. With his last breath, he stated with a grin that their lightning-quick speed was simply too fast for him. His head then flew a distance and landed in front of the scared Sabu.
It was later revealed that the decapitated body was a
clone of Zetsu and that the real Kisame had been hiding inside Samehada in order to infiltrate
Kumogakure. The sword itself was taken by Killer Bee, who planned to use it as his new weapon.
