Hokuto

is a young kunoichi from Hoshigakure. She and the other Genin from Hoshigakure once used the meteor to increase their powers, however she and Mizura exposed Akahoshi's star training. When Naruto Uzumaki is attacked by her when is at the training camp, he is surprised his attacker was a girl. She then apologizes for attacking Naruto, when finding out that he was a Konohagakure ninja, and is embarrassed when finding Naruto's food is stuck to her butt. Together their share it, which they say is really good. Hokuto then tells Naruto that Mizura has been ill ever since he started training, and ignoring Mizura's pleas, she tells Naruto about then star and then explains why Sumaru is so cold.

After she met Naruto, she developed a crush on him (much like Hinata). She was the one who explained to Naruto and Neji Hyūga why Mizura is dying, and that is why the Third Hoshigake stopped the training because of the effects. When she finds out that Naruto is missing, Hokuto tells everyone to go and search for Naruto; no one agrees except Sumaru. While the other genin are loyal to Akahoshi and chose to follow him after an attack, she chose to stay with Sumaru, of which she is branded a missing-nin. She and the other Konohagakure ninja run to the outskirts to the training hall.

When Sumaru appears to be dead, she tells everyone that they must stop the star training, otherwise, it will kill them. Before Akahoshi could shot an arrow at Mizura, she and the other Hoshigakure children refuse to stand down. When Akahoshi shot an arrow at her, Mizura blocked it, and tells her to "keep on fighting" for him. Akahoshi knocks out everyone in the village, including her. While in Konohagakure after Akahoshi's defeat, she and the others will recover from the effects of the star, according to Shizune. Before they depart, she listens to Naruto and Sumaru argue about who will become a Kage first.
