Shiho works on the cryptology squad that was tasked by Shikamaru Nara to decipher the code left by Jiraiya.

Personality

Shiho is an upbeat cheerful girl who appears to be attracted to Shikamaru Nara. She deeply blushes as Shikamaru leaves to seek help with the code. Knowing that Shikamaru said he would return if he found out any new information, Shiho refuses an offer to go home from her boss. Instead she fixes herself up in a mirror, intending to see Shikamaru again when he returns. Shiho also blushes when Shikamaru accepts her offer of accompanying him back to Tsunade's office. The side text on chapter 407's cover page, which Shiho appears on, makes mention of how excited and nervous she gets around Shikamaru.
