Children
Chōchō Akimichi Chōchō is the daughter and only child of Chōji and Karui. Like her father, Chōchō never turns down a invitation when it comes to food. This will sometimes cause her to skip out on training with her fellow Ino–Shika–Chō members in favour of going to eat with her sensei, Anko Mitarashi. Also like her father she has a stark contras and is quick to rile when his weight was brought up, she was easily able to brush off being called fat. This will sometime bother her like her father did when he was young. Like her mother she is self-assured. She is able to use the Akimichi clan technique she learned from her father and is able to use the Lighting Release like her mother.

Fanon
was unexpected when Naruto chapter 700 came out. This shocked many fans when it was revealed. This ship is was very unpopular as the two didn't have a lot of interactions with each other before the ending of the series. This ship originally was a "crack pairing" but it seems to have quickly warmed up to the couple as the two characters did seem compatible with each other.
