Name: Genma Shiranui Gender: Male Birthday: July 17 Age (Part I): 30 Height: 5'9" Weight: 156.5 lbs. Blood Type: A Affiliation: Konohagakure Current Rank: Special Jonin Previous Occupation: Examiner
Genma Shiranui (, Shiranui Genma?) replaces Hayate Gekko as examiner of the main matches of the Chunin Exams after Hayate is killed. "Shiranui" means "phosphorescent light". Genma is often seen with a senbon in his mouth. He uses this as a weapon, spitting it out at the enemy to attack them, or to deflect ranged weapon attacks. When the invasion of Konoha begins, Genma battles Baki off-screen, presumably to a draw since both of them come out of the fight relatively unscathed. He later appears with Raido Namiashi to confront the Sound Four, who are forced to go level 2 of their cursed seals to defeat them. The Sound Four later comment that if it hadn't been for their cursed seals, Genma and Raido would have defeated them.
