| アナアキ・チクワ ''Chikuwa Anaaki'' | |||
| From 穴あき ''anaaki'' (hollow; perforated) and 竹輪 ''{{wp|chikuwa}}'' (a variety of {{wp|surimi}} with a cylindrical shape and a hollow interior). Possibly a reference to ''{{wp|Naruto Uzumaki}}'', who is named after {{wp|Narutomaki|another variety}} of surimi which featured a spiral (渦巻 ''uzumaki'') pattern. Incidentally, chikuwa is also the favorite treat of Shishimaru, the ninja dog in Ninja Hattori-kun. | |||
