As an early character of Naruto, Haku has a small number of episodes, but the impression left on Naruto fans is very deep.
In addition to his and the touching stories of no longer chopping, his gender issues have always been questionable. To this day, there are still many Naruto fans who question Bai's gender.
Because this product is obviously a man, but he looks good and likes to wear women's clothes.
Even when Naruto called him sister, he was a "hmmm" virtue.
So the question is, what was Kishimoto thinking when he created this character at that time?
Years later, in Kishimoto's questions and answers to fans, he finally gave the answer.
The question asked by fans is: Kishimoto sensei, why is Haku a boy? Is his relationship with The Never Again inclined to mentor or lover?
Kishimoto said: When he first designed the role of Bai, he did consider the CP of Uncle Cold and Lori, but later felt that this was not appropriate, so he set him and Zaibu as a relationship of mutual dependence and mutual bondage.
Like the Ghost Maru and Red Lotus who appeared later, they were not lovers, no male and female love, but similar to the relationship between master and apprentice or pioneer and follower.
After all, the relationship between the couple is too sensitive and warm, and it does not conform to the setting of Naruto's hot blood.
Kishimoto understood that, like Hata and Sakura, Kishimoto was very conservative when dealing with their feud with Naruto Sasuke. Or that this guy has always been relatively obscure in the expression of male and female emotional dramas, and many times it is a brush stroke.
On the contrary, he has always spared no ink on the bond between brothers, masters and apprentices, and father and son, valuing the feelings between men and ignoring the feelings between men and women, which may also be the idea of the male manga artists of Kishimoto's time.
