Personality: Jiro, despite his age, is a rather ambitious man. He enjoys fishing in his free time, though he is usually busy running and cooking for Konoha's most popular ramen shop. He has an incredibly friendly disposition and will go out of his way to help just about anyone.
Character History: Jiro grew up in the land of fire, though he never cared to learn the art of ninshu. Instead, he dreamed of becoming a master in all things ramen, from hand-pulling the noodles to creating the perfect broth. He could never get enough of it. When Konohagakure was established and grew in size, Jiro was able to fulfill his dream of opening his own ramen shop which quickly became an incredible success. At the time, the middle-aged man was rumored to make the best ramen in the world, which may have been true. To this day, Jiro's ramen continues to be a staple for the residents of Konoha, and a destination for travelers visiting the village.
