This morning I was at school very exited and hoping to see Tsunade show up on the 601 chapter. At 10 am I receive a call from my mum :
Mum: -I'm sorry I know you are at school but your little brother wanna talk to you so hard-
Me: -Mum, I can't talk right now. Can I talk to him later?-
Mum: I doubt so.
Me: Ok, just let me talk to him then.

And when he reaches the phone he just said -Huggles* (he calls me huggles) Tsunaday just died. The old beautiful lady... the evil guy did it-

I was shocked and then I just got my iPad and watched the chapter here, on the Narutobase and saw Tsunade cut in half, bleeding like never before and crying because if the pain, but still trying to save people.
I was so moved that I couldn't avoid to drop some tears or to lose my breathing. I got so sad that I questioned myself why was I crying or feeling sadness because of Manga character that doesn't even exist. I was upset with myself for being so passionate and sensitive regarding unimportant things.
Then I just found the answer to my sadness. I grew up following that character.
-A woman that was able to defend herself, full of feelings, weakly breakable as sensitive but still strong to the outside.
- A woman who was capable of leading a village, to stand where the strongest and wiser stood.
- A woman that never hurt anybody.
-The last of her bloodline, a woman with absolute no special gifts or talents.
-A woman who had to fight her way up and who did not have to feel guilty about it because of any wrong behavior.

She was also a woman who used to know what to do in the exact moment, at the right place. Her leadership was flawless and since she took office she proved to do outstanding diplomatic improvements to the ninja world. She created the entire medical shinobi system, regarding not only Konoha but worldwide in the Narutoverse and she's been sending shinobis from the Leaf to help with other villages issues which keeps the peace and strengthen alliances.
More than once she put her life on the front line risking herself to die for the entire village and undoubtedly her principal goal in life is to protect Konoha.
Nowadays she has already made history as the Kage with more years in office including all villages (probably after Oonoki, but there are no facts to prove it) and she was the heiress of Shodaime's Will of Fire and Uzumaki Mito's conviction.

So... why do I cry??
Because in my very own view she is an analogy of many celebrated women that have proved to be as strong as a man. I think of Joan of Arc who died at the Stake, a true hero. I think of Margaret Thatcher, the former British Prime Minister and the only woman on the history of that country. I think about mothers on the whole, who give us life and protect us to the cost of their own lives.

Tsunade was the frustrated lover, the lonely woman walking throughout life finding a meaning for her existence. The woman who lost all her family and closest friends : Her Grandfather, Grandmother, Parents, brother, lover and best friend Jiraiya. A woman who found her soul on protecting thousands of people. Who mastered techniques not to end with lives, as most of the shinobi do, but to save lives.

Her feeling of motherhood towards Naruto leaded her to risk her own life and even sacrifice it in order to protect him. With no fear to death she saved Konoha from Pain’s arc and almost falling in a blackout was willing to fight him to death.

She wished nothing but the best even for a traitor like Sasuke and had to deal with Danzo's cold war just to protect Naruto and the whole leaf. And yes, she used to go on rampage from time to time

But still she was such a sensitive character that sometimes she seemed to be way emotionally weak for a shinobi world full of blood and death.

Tsunade was a support hero with the ability to carry when it was required thanks to her mastered Byakugou no jutsu and the later doesn't mean Strength of a Hundred Technique as most of you believe. Byakugou literally means 'Ūrṇā' which means Fine White Hair which is a white swirl of fine hair on the forehead of the Buddha, represented in art by a spiral or a dot, or even a gem or pearl. It represents the third eye which allows one to see past the mundane world and into the divine world. This is a clear allusion to the diamond mark on Tsunade's forehead and how could she turn into divine when using this technique.

So... why keep hating her?? She was never trying to be better than any other ninja and placed her faith on the youth.

Now I understand why Jiraiya did think she was the perfect one for the title of Hokage. Now I understand why I cried….
Tsunade was a woman with no special gift or talents like a visual power or a biju inside of her. She had to fight her way up in a world made for men.
There are many Tsunades in our real world. My mother is one of them.

I wish Tsunade stood a chance to escape death this time, but for those who believe she can still live:

Her upper part is separated from the lower part. There’s no chackra connection even if Katsuyu pull her parts together and then she uses Creation Rebirth her forehead chakra would never get to the lower part since there’s not connection. She would regenerate her upper part and that would be worthless. She is aware of that so she knows that the right thing is to save the other Kage.


Goodbye granny. I’m proud of you!
May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be always at your back.
Rest calm…. We will remember you…
AS A TRULY HERO!


Here is my song for Tsunade. Listen carefully to the lyrics and you will know why does it fit with her.

Goodbye Narutobase. This is over for me now.

Rest calm milady.

Man F--- this old broad. All jokes aside, I am sooooo glad she is gone. It was either her or Oonoki who was going to die. I'm just one of them died because these battles were getting stale with no deaths at all.

There's no need to cry, she was my favourite female of the series though and will be missed, she will probably die a hero's death and did a really admirable job as Hokage considering the crap she had to deal with in such a short time span, she will die a heroes death with a lot respect, Tsunade is proof that Kishi doesn't completely troll the females.

Guys stop trolling on her thread, i think she he's to talk to people who feel the same way about Tsunade's death.

Yeah i felt the same way when Kisame died apart from the crying, just a general sense of loss at the greatest character Kishi ever created :(

Also R.I.P Chibi (Nagato's Dog)

Honestly I always admired Tsunade she truly is one of my heroes along with Naruto, and Jiraiya. To see this happens is sad but it just reminds me of how much she cares for the village even after losing so much over the years.

She is a strong shinobi. I hope she doesn't die like that.

Wow, so much undeserved hate for tsunade going on here. Jiraiya gives up his life for the greater good, and it' s the most tragic moment in the series. Tsunade forfiets her life to save the other kage, and this happens.

She fought well to survive a fight with Madara uchiha and save others is something 99% could not do
