“I want to be a common ninja and earn some money. Then, marry with an ordinary woman and have two children. One is a girl and another one is a boy. When my daughter marries and my son is powerful enough, I will retire. Later, I will play shogi or chess everyday and die earlier than my wife.” This is Shikamaru’s dream, sounding rather common and insignificant while being compared with other people’s lofty dreams. But Shikamaru have never given it up, which is exactly the reason why Shikamaru gains affection and makes people moved.
Naruto is filled with pursuit for life’s meaning. In almost each big fight, both sides of people will retrospect their life process and probe the meaning of their life. Seemingly, it’s a fight between ninjas. But actually, it’s a match on philosophy of life. Ninjas seek for their life goals while fighting. This even makes sense on Akimichi Choji, who considers bread is the stall of life. He also had ever felt perplexed about the meaning of life. But Shikamaru is different. He had hardly discussed outlook on life with other people, because he has already had a life goal that can be realized without too much endeavor.
