''Thinking of stupidity as gravity, the more stupid one is, the stronger the gravity gets. While a one is facing the other, the other will drag you down to their level and beat you there with experience.'' - Quote number; 1243564: Anonymous
My first time actually reading through a debate never really did it before don't know if it were the debaters but this debate was entertaining I liked it do more and who won btw
-Excellent intro, loved how you explained Kimimaro's healing abilities and proved his ability to at least tank one punch from Tsunade, convincing both Adobo and myself
-It was worthwhile mentioning Kimimaro's speed/reflexes and explain how they are superior to Tsunade's
-Good point countering to "smashing the ground" and explaining how Kimimaro was doing fine when Gaara changed the enviroment to sand and so a punch shouldn't either
-Sawarabi no Mae + Tessenka no Mae combo is a good strategy which you brought up and defended
Cons:
-It probably wasn't a good idea to bring up chakra limits and how Kimimaro's takes less chakra than Kabuto's, when Tsunade has huge reserves and amount of chakra needed for healing isn't an issue (as pointed out and explained by Adobo)
-Sort of a weak counter to the grappling argument since you based it off a counterattack that deals damage from which Tsunade can simply heal
-You didn't show very good strength feats from Kimimaro; reducing the impact from Rock Lee's kick and Kimimaro's attack didn't even pierce through Gaara's sand armour, even if it did crack it
Adobo (Tsunade)
Pros:
-Lovely job explaining Tsunade's chakra pool
-I like the "grappling on to Kimimaro" argument since it seems like that's a very high possibility
-You did a great job defending Tsunade's strength and made clear that multiple kicks/punches should shatter his bone armour and deal enough damage to kill him
-I like the strategy of getting Kimimaro into the air by forcing him to jump (so he can't dodge in midair), whereupon he gets finished off by Tsunade
-You made a good point by explaining how she could use BPD to immobilize him and then Tsunade can finish him with a series of punches/kicks
-Good counter to Sawarabi no Mae, and how it won't affect Tsunade or Katsuyu
Cons:
-You didn't do a great job defending Tsunade's healing in terms of chakra use: Akasuna pointed out how regenerating comes at a hefty price and you only said Tsunade's chakra pool is monstrous enough to the point where she can regenerate tons of damage easily
-You didn't include enough Tsunade taijutsu feats or speed/reflexes to comfortably make me believe she can continually avoid getting headshotted by a bone if Kimimaro keeps at it
All in all, I believe both of you were focused too much on offense and not supporting defense much other than tanking/healing from attacks. Both of you were excellent in supporting your character's strengths and weaknesses (Akasuna noted Kimimaro's speed/agility/reflexes and didn't focus much on his attacking power which is much weaker and Adobo concentrated on Tsunade's chakra reserves and strength and was wary of her weaknesses.)
My point goes to...
Adobo. His points seemed more well-thought out, better supported, and I liked his strategies better. He efficiently countered Akasuna's points and showed a clear way that his character would win.
Giving both debaters a rep.
If you have an issues or questions with my judgement, I'm happy to answer questions.

I know I'm not a judge, but think this should be a tie. Both debaters did a great job, especially Akasuna. I used to think Tsunade defeats Kimimaro easily, but now I can see him pushing her to mid-high difficulty. At any rate + rep for you guys.
