Talk:Hōki Taketori

Information
This is all the info I've gathered about Hōki: Hōki Taketori♂ is the boy in Boruto’s class who most notably wears a black mask covering his mouth, nose and neck in an exact manner to Kakashi Hatake. He has brown spiky hair and wears a light blue vest and a blue long-sleeved shirt underneath. He can be clearly seen talking to Denki and Dōshu in Episode 25, but the only character credited is Sayū Jōge, who was credited in Episode 12 where this character didn’t appear to speak at all. His name is confirmed in conversation in Episode 36 and is credited as well. He may hail from the Taketori clan mentioned in Shippuden.

I leave this here for those more familiar with editing and creating more fleshed out articles. Feel free to use any of the information as you see fit for use.

Removing the warning?
should we remove the warning about Hoki resembling Kakashi? we now know from the latest episode relating to this character has the answer why he dressed as his idol. if not, guess leave it be then Kunoichi101 (talk) 00:15, July 20, 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that was there because we had no official word on it. It being on the appearance section should be enough for people not to add it again if they have a modicum of common sense. This being the internet, that might be expecting too much though. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:18, July 20, 2019 (UTC)

Rank
We've long since established that while someone is an anbu, that is their rank, and what they are outside anbu doesn't quite matter. Hoki is a strange matter, as he's able to take the Chunin Exams and be promoted to chunin, while he's an anbu. Shouldn't we have him listed as anbu, rather than chunin?

 * I don't think he should be listed as an Anbu. Chocho and Inojin get to do Chunin level missions alongside Shikadai because he is a Chunin while they are still Genin. I think Hoki and his team only get Anbu-level missions because their teacher is an Anbu and accompanies them.Steveo920 (talk) 23:27, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree it's a weird circumstance. The lack of them having the Anbu outfit and mask also nudges me towards them not quite being Anbu. When Sai became their sensei, the thing he noted is that their skills were suited to intelligence missions. Those do not all necessarily have to be Anbu missions.

 * Why do we have the opening of the article directly mentioning him joining the anbu, with a ref? Munchvtec (talk) 12:17, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Because despite probably giving such topics more thought than most people would, we're still human and sometimes thing do fall between the cracks. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:01, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Shikadai said "If I'm not mistaken he's in the Anbu" in the episode. Sarutobii2 (talk) 03:23, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Maybe he meant Anbu as in the group, not the rank? "In the Anbu" seems more like it's referring to the group, not a rank. You don't say someone's "in the chūnin", you might say someone is a chūnin. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:22, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
