Shikadai Nara

is an Academy student and a member of Konohagakure's Nara clan.

Personality
Shikadai takes after his father, Shikamaru, in several ways, possessing a similar relaxed, yet unenthusiastic personality. He finds participating in activities to be very tiresome and is quick to shirk out of them, as seen when he rejected an invitation from Inojin to train after school. He also isn't one to properly respect rank, greeting his uncle, the Kazekage plainly before flatly asking after his other uncle Kankurō. At the same time, he showed himself to be blunt and outspoken like his mother, telling Boruto that pursuing a prank during the Five Kage Summit was stupid.

Appearance
Inheriting the trademark look of the Nara, Shikadai has black, spiky hair tied up in a ponytail. His eyes, however, are dark green and shaped like his mother's. His facial expressions also favour that of his mother's. He wears a dark outfit with a light-coloured jacket over it, which bears the same emblem seen on the jacket his father used to don in Part I. Also as customary of his clan, both of his ears are pierced by grey stud earrings.

Epilogue
After class at the Academy was dismissed, Shikadai warned Boruto not to pursue his prank because of the five Kage meeting. Upon arriving home, he told his mother to tell Ino that his stomach was hurting, simply to get out of having to train, and greeted his uncle Gaara casually, earning a reprimand from his mother, but shrugged it off and asked for his other uncle Kankurō instead.
