question why do you fans of tsuanade really think she deserves hoakge title?

[The Riddlerr]

Mate she was the last resort no one else wanted the job not Jiraiya not Kakashi even though he wasn't offered the position at that time he stated that he does not want to be the hokage if he doesn't want it now he wouldn't have wanted it then. Shakaku didn't want the job either that left Tsunade now don't misinterpret what I mean by last resort I'm not saying she is weak or that no one wants her. Even she didn't want the job to begin with what I mean by "last resort" is that no one else wanted the job that was worthy at the time essentially making her the last worthy resort for the village. Also one last thing even if she was second choice that still makes her last choice if the only other one asked to do the job was Jiraiya if 2 people have a race the one that comes second would also be considered to come in last place.

It sounds as if you're trying to say the list of possible Hokage is only 2 names long... Are you serious? Just because they went to the 2nd choice on the list does NOT, under any circumstance make her the last resort... And who said the only possible people available for the position were Jiraiya and Tsunade? You're reaching with a statement like that.

Dude, I'm not saying that other Kage weren't capable as well; that's THEIR JOB.

And there's a difference between protecting A PERSON and protecting A VILLAGE. Just cuz Konohamaru protected one person, of course doesn't make him worthy of Hokage...did you even read my post? And yeah, Tsunade protected the village from a crushing wave of energy that would have killed them all in seconds if she hadn't acted.

And like I said, Tsunade's only been in one fight til now, so we can't say for sure that she isn't capable of more.

The whole point of this post is whether or not she is a good Hokage...and she is. She protects her village, manages her ninja, and goes where she is needed. She is absolutely not the strongest offensive ninja, but she has her own merit.

I'd also like to point out that Madara said that Hashirama could heal his OWN wounds without seals, not heal others. So perhaps he is not as good at medicine as Tsunade, who can heal everyone at once, REMOTELY. Just sayin.

i agree...

Fine, I misspoke. She protected the VILLAGERS, which makes up the village. You can reconstruct buildings, but the lives she saved that day were what mattered. It's true that Nagato overshadowed what she did with his reviving thing, but she still did a kickass job of protecting her village.

I don't mean to attack you, it just bothers me that people can't accept that a supportive person has just as much use in battle as someone strictly offensive.

the way i see things, tsunade played an important role in the reviving done by Nagato. That technique with Katsuyo covering the bodies of the dead or alive (i'm just assuming). without the bodies, where will the souls go?

in any case, i am completely with you.

Mate in the end they can't force someone to become hokage against their will the only possible candidates for hokage would be Jiraiya,Kakashi,Shakaku,Danzo and Tsunade. Ok now Jiraiya turned them down Kakashi doesn't want to be hokage same thing for Shakaku the elders did not want Danzo to be hokage which leave's Tsunade. So weather she accepted the job or not she was the last resort out of the possible list of candidates. Other wise they were going to have to use someone that they did not want to become hokage or use someone that really doesn't want the title.

She is one of those who fit sitting on a desk doing paperwork and helping the village.
Kakashi is a battlefield person, he can't sit down and assign missions. Tsunade was also strong enough to heal a wound straight to the heart. I would think that is amzing in real life. In Naruto, not so. BUT She is defenatly top ten female dogs in Naruto. Wow I didn't realize I wrote 'female dogs' xD

 

[dryman19]

boobie sama is weekest hokage

 

[mintoandkushina]

its still possible minato and hashirama could of stopped it.
hashirama's wood probably could of tanked it it was used to taim tailed beast's so its pretty bad ass wood :scorps: lolz
and if tsuanade prevented those lives from being lost why were their little green spirits in the air floating to dead bodies :shrug:

For the green spirits, those were ONLY SHINOBI, not the villagers, as she quickly acted, making katsuyu protect every villagers, the dead people were people killed my Pain after he got into the city. Also, to lazy to quote it but later you talked about nagato healing everyone in the village so hes a better medical nin. First of all that's his only medical jutsu and it takes so much chakra that it killed him. You need to understand that nagato had the rinnegan so he has access to these techniques but hes not a medical nin so he couldn't off gone healing people if he was hokage when konoha was attacked.


PS: Just saying but whenever people reference the other hokages' inability to do certain things your response is always "That's your assumption" I don't think that's fair to say, as you assume many things about abilities of previous kage in your posts, and when you post again I can point them out to you, if you want.

Peace out.

Great reasoning! +rep

You may be right in that we haven't seen her do much, but to be honest we haven't seen Sartobi do much either... oh wait a sec.. Saratobi was placed as Hokage based on what he did in the past. Same as Minato. It seems to me that all past Hokages were chosen based on their past accolades. The never really went into detail of anyone of them. Only passing mentions. Tsunade was hailed as great as Jiraiya, went toe to toe with Orochimaru and she come comes from good stock (a la Shodaime Hashirama Ojisama) I think she deserves the title. And actually, I dont think the elders wanted jiraiya, but they dang sure didn't want Danzou.. so I believe the "last resort" would have been Danzou, not Tsunade. Her name did not come up only because she wasn't in the village and had not been for some time.

Thats not entirely correct there bud its not that it uses so much chakra that it killed him it that he was so low on chakra when he used that technique that it killed him if he had full chara at the time he would still be alive now.

Also don't triple post mate or you might get in trouble just multi quote or edit.

I'm not disagreeing but I have one tiny little issue that every one seems to be over looking.. How the hell, can you be in a WAR, fight toe - to - toe with the top ninja in that region (Hanzo the Salamnder) be granted the title Legendary Sannin, and think that She has only been in ONE battle? Before Tsunade same became Hokage, can some one tell me how many fights say... Jiraiya was in? with out the other two ... Orochimaru and Tsunade? One battle isn't the war, people. As part the Sannin, I am sure she did mission, after mission as they were all that talented.

I do agree with you on that I stated in a post earlier that it would be nice to see a bit of history on Tsunade before the series started then we could judge her status more accurately.

 

[KageZulu]

What do mean you don't think the elders wanted Jiraiya of course they did thats why they spoke to him about it and said that they would recommend him for the position. He turned it down and said there was still Tsunade, Danzo was never a last resort since he was never considered for the job even when he did become interim hokage they recommended Kakashi for the job 1st. But Danzo forced his way into the job and after seeing what he did at the kage summit it wouldn't surprise me if he used the same genjutsu on the feudal lord as he did on Mifune. People keep misinterpriting what "last resort" is, in this case its not because she is weak or because no one wanted her to be hokage its because all the other candidates turned the position down effectively making her the villages "last resort"

I think you're kind of proving my point on this one. Despite Danzou's cloak and dagger actions, he holds a high ranking and respected position in the village. The elders aren't so Naive, but if they could not find a suitable replacement Danzou would be tolerated by other villages, so it would default to Danzou. I mean, geez, look at how the others treated Gaara. Danzou became interim Hokage due to Tsunade's comatose state. Shikaku tried to nominate Kakashi first and the elders liked it, based upon Kakashi's accolades and lineage as well. But until the jounin could vote, the village (what was left of it) was in a state of emergency, there was a summit coming up. Danzou made some good points so despite his reputation, he was the choice.... for now. He'd been voted out... IMHO

 

[MadaraUchiha449]

she might not be as strong as the other kages but do not forget what she did when pain invaded the leaf.If he didnt resurect everyone her medical ninjutsu would save many lives

ummm pain resurrected everyone and she was just treating minor wounds not even attempting to help naruto hinata did more the tsunade during that.

tsunade is strong but so far she doesnt deserve it until she acually does something worth her staying hokage.

and other people keep saying oh she is sannin....get over it she hasnt even got good jutsu's

one more thing when the 3 sannin fight what did she do there aswell???....she sucks sorry but true so far

 

[partha420]

im really interested in this i have yet to see anything tsuanade has done to have the hokage title.
shes better at running a special hospital in the lead village and being the politician worker. but not hokage.. your opinions? on why she does not/or does deserve hokage title?

lol what to do?!! There arent many people who wants to be or has right to be hokage.Well, im not a tsunade fan, but i think she deserves to be a hokage.

 

[Zatanna]

Lets face it. She was chosen. Because she was considered to be the best leaf shinobi at the time. There were other candidates like danzo and kakashi. but they werent? there doesnt seem to be a scene whether they were considered either? I guess she does because she is pretty good. Granted no as good as the other kage, but apparently the best at the time.

well, i'm a guy who criticises tsunade more often than not.

but this time,i'll be more honest!......truth be be told,tsunade is the weakest hokage the leaf has ever had!-factxd
but,as some guys in this thread have said,apart from her weaknesses as a shinobi,she is a good leader!

when i mean good leader, i mean a person with good nature,a person who cares for others and person who command shinobi under her very well.

eg:she is a good leader when compared to danzo,a man who would have ruined leaf village for his personal ambitions!


but,it's a whole different matter,when it comes to skills as a shinobi,!
tsunade is one of the weakest kage around when it comes to skills!xd

^^ that

I think thats pretty much why they chose her. Of all the current candidates at the time, she was the only /REAL/ Leader.

 

[Out Of Ctrl]

Oh its Prince Charles again ranting about his hate for Tsunade.

Its pointless trying to argue with him because he is rather deluded. For him a Hokage's mere purpose is to be strong when fighting, he doesnt believe there are other duties of a village Kage. He also doesnt quite grasp the concept of the storyline as to why it was necessary for Konoha village to be destroyed or the fact that no one else could have possibly stopped the village from getting destroyed. He also thinks Kakashi would be a great Hokage. :sy:

He has a weak naive view of what a Hokage is and thats up to him to believe. U_U

 

[uchiha goku]

Kishi made her hokage & i think he was high or something..

 

[jiggs0032]

who else would be hokage? no one shares her influence, her experience and her strength.

 

[Jerrylikesgreen]

Tsunade, is she Hokage material?

The question, does Tsunade diverse to be the Hokage, depends on your views on what a Hokage is supposed to be. Most against Tsunade *thread maker* beleave that you have to be the strongest to be Hokage. If that is the case then yes, Tsunade is not qualified to be Hokage. I don't beleave that the strongest should be the Hokage.

To be Hokage you must be a strong LEADER and not INDIVIDUAL. ( Tsunade has proven to be this, time and time again. She has calmly viewed village dilemmas and acted appropriately saving thousands of lives.) Main example being Pein Arc. She used up most of her chakra to save and heal the lives of the people of her village while being attacked by Pein. If Pein did not have a change of heart he did, he would have left all that have died dead. If not for the Hokage, the leaf village would have consisted of Naruto, Sai, Yamato and that other Jounin with the snakes *forgot her name* and mabe a few others.

So lets put Kakashi *someone you deemed more worthy of the title of Hokage* in the Pein arc as Hokage, what would have happened? Every one would have died. Yes Pein might have brought everyone back to life but that would have been Peins doing and not Kakashi's.

Tsunade is a great Hokage, she may not be the best but she is deserving. Now before you go on about how Minato and HIrashima would do better. That isnt the discussion for the Sage of the six paths would have been a better hokage. The disscusion is whether or not she deserves to be Hokage.
