I agree with both of you.

Offcourse people normally say either Lady hokage or Hokage Sama or lady tsunade and all others against Tsunade but hey we are dealing with Naruto, he didn't even call the 3th hokage, 3th hokage. And 1 of the legendary sennin was called pervy sage by him so don't take things to literal when it comes out of this goofy kid

Ero-Sage

I agree. HR is taking the "granny" thing way too literal. Its just Naruto's way to give ppl nicknames. He called the 3rd gramps, jiraiya pervy sage, tsunadae granny, hell he's still calling bee octoguy. So ya you can't take eveything he says so seriously.....Naruto is the sawyer(from lost) of the narutoverse, he's got a nickname for almost everybody.

exactly but u forgot the best nickname of them all bushy brow

Not going through all of the post...to me when motoi made that statement I thought he was only talking about his village. I would hate to think that AKA was able to take out all of the other tailed beast if they had siblings who could have assisted in the battles to prevent capture...i could be wrong but i didnt take that statement for all of the hidden villages. Also it would be f*** up if naruto had family and they let him suffer like that as a kid...that would be so wrong. Even gaara had some family there. Hell for all we know naruto was homeless...lmao...

naruto deff has a home we all know this.. and if the jinks had people to assist them do u think they would have been captured? aside from gaara i think not most of the jinks were captured when they were alone because if motoi was right do u think 2 akatsuki members could take a kage and a jink at the same time? even i dont know that answer but if would lead to some very good fights

Najiro

I think if the Kage was as lame as Tsunade is ATM then yes they would

TheThinker

u greatly underestimate tsunade.. she may not seem much but she is able to heal a whole village of people at the same time.. name how many people in the naruto universe that has even healed 2 people at once... nobody.. she can shatter things with just the strike of her fist.. aside from naruto and sakura nobody else has even shown to come close to that much strength. during the sannin fight she was able to mix up kabutos chakra network with a single touch and the only chars in the manga that showed that kind of prowess is the hyuuga with their gentle fist taijustu. so how is tsunade lame? just because she does not have the arsenal of justu that jiraiya and orochimaru have doesnt make her weak. she healed lee when nobody else could and even claimed she could fix orochimarus arms after them being sealed by the death god.. honestly u are greatly underestimating her by alot she is hokage for a reason and by the end of this manga she will show us all why mark my words

Tsunade isn't the best one one one fighter in the history of Kages, but her abilities assist her citizens prolly more than anyone except maybe the 1st, Harashima. She's hella underated, she's prolly the strongest, most able female nin in the manga, more than even Yugito, and the Mizukage to this point in the manga.

Ero-Sage

More of what makes Tsunadae a capable hokage is how she can communicate intelligence to the whole village through katsyuhu(spelling?). No one else the narutoverse has a tactical ability of that magnitude. I understand if you don't like Tsunadae as a character but you should refrain from claiming shes not a good hokage. Not to mention she's a direct descendant of the Senju clan. Actually shes pretty badass and on top of that she has stellar tits....

IMO as Hokage she should have joined the action to fight against pain to keep the losses to a minimum. But instead she relied on someone else, as Hokage that shouldn't be allowed IMO. Yes she is powerfull that's why she should have fought IMO. I mean sure she should trust Naruto but really thinking about leaving all 6 pains to Naruto, while Jiraya, who was before the training many times stronger then him couldn't beat him, is IMO stupid of both Kishi's plot and Tsunade.

Also yes I do think her healing abilities are incredible and all. Also the most epic moment of her in that arc was when she went against the orders of the elders. But I think the only moment that she showed her real battle strength was against Orochimaru who was unable to use any real jutsus except for using his snake head and the blade that came out of his throat. Also the fight against Kabuto was good, Though I still think that the power diffrence between Kabuto and Tsunade was to small in that fight, I mean before blood was shown and all.

But I don't really care about that since the Naruto Vs pain arc/fight was epic
Also I do like Tsunade but I just expected more from her being 1 of the Legendary sannin.

Ero-Sage

Pain already fucked up half the village before she even was notified. Its only natural that a medical based Nin would look after the wounded and give them a chance to survive or even rejoin the fight before jumping into battle. She was just following her strengths. She was ready for Pain once he showed up thanks to Kakashi and friends intelligence on his abilities. She would have surely killed Yahiko pain and moved on to the others but Naruto showed up and was way more capable. After all it is the jinkiruki's duty to be the hokage's show of strength and to protect them along with the village.

I completely agree with you (Najiro) about the Sannin showdown and the small gap shown between Kabuto and Tsunadae, however I believe she had a different mentality at that time and employs a more serious and adept mindset now.

TheThinker

umm reread the konoha invasion arc.. tsunade was about to fight pein but naruto came.. just because your hokage does not entitle you to fight everytime someone invades your village. your job is to make the best possible action to limit casualties which she did. you and i both know that if she were to actually fight pein she would have died a stupid meaningless death so she took the smart decision and picked someone more capable of fighting him.. last time i checked she is a healing nin which means she is better capable of assisting in combat not fighting it out.. the more u post about what she didnt or doesnt do the more i will just prove you wrong. i can understand you not knowing info but being completely ignorant is something different

KillerNN

.....Reread what Motoi said.

And to everyone, Tsunades ability to fight [from what we've seen] is shit. But her leadership and healing jutsu is amazing, which makes her a great Hokage. She doesn't necessarily have to be a powerhouse like the other Kages and Sannin for her to be a great asset to the village. She saved many people.

Yes. Jinchuuriki are the direct blood of the Kage. Therefore,If Orochimaru were to have kids and became Hokage. His child would be eligible to become a jinchuuriki.

Naruto is the first nine tailed host. If any others existed. They must of died or lost the Kyuubi, because Kyuubi is one hell of a beast to tame and is not really friendly unless your Uchiha Madara.

Tsuande and Naruto are not related. (UNTIL THE MANGA STATES TSUANDE IS NARUTO GRANDMOM, GRANDAUNT or something along the lines of being related.)

1. Tsuande never had any kids.
2. The only relative she had was that younger brother of hers.
3. Minato last name is Namikaze. Must be someone from the Namikaze clan. The reason why Minato was so powerful and elite is because he's a rare genius.

If Tsuande and Naruto are related. Tsuande DOES one HELL of a TERRIBLE JOB of raising Naruto.
