Keiichi Aburaya

Keiichi Aburaya (あぶらや けいいち) is a ninja from Soragakure and a member of its ANBU.

Background
When he was 5 years old, Keiichi`s parents died after the Four-Tails attack on Soragakure. Because of that, he saw his parents as heroes and the event motivated him to train harder and become a hero like them. Becoming Tsukikage became his main goal, and he graduated at the age of 8 and became a Chuunin at age 10.

He joined Hashi when he was 13 years old and left the organization one year later, joining Sora`s Anbu.

Personality
Keiichi is shown to be a cocky and bold individual who is not afraid to say what he thinks. He is loud most of the time, openly voicing his opinions, and he doesn`t care if anyone thinks badly of him. He believes that the only thing he needs is to always stay true and loyal to himself. Keiichi also has a bit of pride on his abilities.

Aside from that, he is also laidback and relaxed most of the time, never panicking no matter the situation. A proof of that is that in battles, he always has a smile on his face, even telling jokes to his comrades and opponents. But when he notices that his adversary is too strong, or in any situation that he judges as severe, Keiichi is shown to adopt a cautious and serious personality.

The Tsukikage title is seen by him as the ultimate goal that he needs to reach. He claims that he will never give up on that dream of his, no matter the difficulties he has to bear with. Keiichi believes that one must never try to run away from any kind of trouble and that is what makes a true shinobi. He lives adventures, as he says that he will always choose the harder path over an easier one.

Trivia

 * Keiichi`s favorite sentence is "A detached nail is hammered downwards (出る 杭 は 打た れる, Deru kui wa utateru), which refers to the fact that if someone is different, they`ll be criticized.
