Kishi said that Sakura acts like a child when ever Sasuke is around. Lets not forget afraid to stab an eye.

She only really been in one fight and that is with Sasori. She never fought Kaguya(she was pretty much on the sidelines). That's not TONS of experience.

Great, she's still level headed.

She experienced the entirety of a war while participating actively; from start to finish. Sakura has battle experience up the ass, absolutely no question or doubt about that.

Sakura lacks, at a most fundamental level, the ability to empathise and understand others.

She's immensely ignorant and completely inept at understanding another person's drives, ambitions, their motives etc. She habitually fails to understand everyone around her throughout the series.

Prime example would be her fake confession to Naruto, her belief that he was trying to get Sasuke back for her sake alone.
:stfu:
***** please.

Another would be the time Naruto was learning Wind Release and it took Sai... SAI of ROOT to explain things in a way for her to comprehend and understand.

She's emotionally retarded in ways that far exceed the boys, which is... saying a lot.

She also offered to leave the village (more than once) if only Sasuke would take her with him. She doesn't actually put the village high on her priority list, she doesn't ever make the hard choice for the sake of the village... she's a selfish **** who is devoted to improving herself for attention of boys to prove something that matters... what?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

She never became a med-nin to help others, she's not particuarly kind nor ambitious in making the lives of others better.
So in that respect, Tsunade tops her - even if she is a drunk and spent years AWOL.

When under normal circumstances, Sakura is level headed. Characters tend to deviate from their normal personality traits when a special party is involved (ie a lover or sibling). Kishi has never implied or stated that Sakura is a normally brash, or impulsive person; this only applies when under the effects of Sasuke.

Battle experience nonetheless. A good majority of that healing was directly in the front lines of the war.

Every time you speak of Sakura, their fan died a little inside...
To sum it up, Konoha is not a laughing stock...

No because she cannot make unbiased decisions. She might even desert the Hokage post for her Sasuke- kunn. She has no sexual control and she is just not strict enough to run the whole country. A character with too many flaws does not deserve to take the Hokage seat.
you basically described the first three ppl who held that post.

Hesitates to destroy rinnegan eye in a man who instigated the 4th Shinobi War and murdered countless people over the years.

Gives her oppertunity and begs her to detroy the eye to effectively save the world and prevent Madara from f*cking it up.

She hestitates and Madara gets the eye.

FAIL.

So say sasuke went evil again, and him being an evil sasuke and he tried to manipulate her, do you think she'll budge into listening?

No, did you miss the part where she did not listen to MS Sasuke about killing Karin to join him in destroying Konoha? Part 1 Sakura was willing to follow Sasuke but she grew up in the 3 years and put Konoha's safety over Sasuke. This is now a 29-31 year old Sakura so yes she would fight Sasuke if she needed to and order his death if need be. Just like how Jiraiya, who use to have feeling for Tsunade and were good friends, told Tsunade that he would kill her if she ever turned on Konoha.

She's been Tsunade's assistance for years so she already has an idea of how to do some of the things and she's the smartest intelligence wise out of her, Sasuke, and Naruto.

Well... lets look at an older Sakura and see how (not) capable she is for the position of Hokage.

A Hokage needs to put the village first, right? The village should come before things like lovers and family. So, how is Sakura on that front?

FAIL
Asks to leave the village with Sasuke (again) and is denied (again).
Surely a med-nin of her calibre has, even years after the war, a patient waiting list a mile long? Example of her putting her own needs/desires before the village, before her duty as a healer... as self proclaimed diciple of Tsunade.

Maybe she has other skills, a Hokage has to manage a LOT of resources, no? How is Sakura at managing... say, something simple and basic - her house?

FAIL
Apparently the greatest med-nin in the Shinobi Nations can't a) buy a house outright and b) control her temper and accidently demolishes it.

Let's see... a village is more than just bricks and stone, right? It's about relationships - bonds, a Hokage needs to manage people successfully, after all a village is only as good as it's shinobi. How is Sakura at managing people?

FAIL
Sakura manages to bungle managing her relationship so greatly that her daughter Sarada questions a) her marriage to (never present) husband Sasuke Uchiha, b) her own paternity, c) every word the comes out her mouth.
Sakura's reaction? Lie, badly. Then demolish the house.

She'd be a watered down PG Tsunade. In personality, leadership skills, bravery, strength, experience and cup size. So like her life really.

Okay? You missed the part where Kakashi (FutureLord 6th) and Minato (Lord 4th) didn't kill Obito who was laid out on the ground defenseless after having all the Bijuus chakra taken from him.

And Naruto (Future 7th) praising him as an awesome guy, and getting pissed when Kaguya killed him.

1) The world was becoming in peace, the fighting had stopped, the Shinobi nations were united, rather than fighting against each other like before.

2) You are forgetting how Tsunade had a big gambling problem, and owed alot of money to numerous people. She was well known as a gambler, and was also known to use jutsu to make herself look different ages to fool people as part of her gambling.

3) Wow you actually mentioned Sasuke wasn't in the village, as if you don't know why.... this isn't the beginning of Gaiden... we all know Sasuke was on a mission to save the world. In fact you contradicted yourself, trying to force Sasuke to stay in Konoha with his family would be selfish considering as a Shinobi, and as the only one with the Rinnegan to do stuff , Sasuke needed to be out of the village...so he could handle things. ..


She couldn't kill sasuke, pfft.. No hokage material. I don't like the way she makes decisions.

It took Hashirama alot to kill Madara, Hiruzen didn't step up good enough to stop the Uchiha massace, Tsunade kept Sasuke, a missing-nin off the wanted list for years because of Naruto. Naruto decided not to kill off the crap ton of Shins who had ME which could be stolen, and used against Konoha, matter of fact Naruto above all else couldn't kill Sasuke no matter what happened...

She'll betray the village if sasuke sama wants revenge on naruto about something. They would still get fodderized together though (without Bijuu chakra ofc)

You probably forgot that Masashi Said they are equal...

And Sasuke used the Bijuus chakra to overpower Naruto because they were evenly matched before. By the way, Sasuke only used 2 of the Rinnegan's techniques against Naruto, Amenotejikara, and Preta Path.

And the Kyuubi specifically pointed out how he couldn't use Preta Path to it's full potential because he was new to the Rinnegan.

Also, the mode Na ruto was in is made from chakra of all the Bijuu. He used In all up during that battle, and never had I replaced hence never using it in The Last, Gaiden, and the Boruto movie.

Lol ? They obviously werent evenly matched before if naruto still had ashura avatar behind his sleeve he couldve pulled it out anytime and end the match. He was on the defensive when the fight started hence why sasuke telling him to stop holding back when sasuke absorbed the bijuu chakra thats when naruto got serious cuz he wasnt trying to die lol. They were even when sasuke absorbed the bijuu chakra and naruto pulling out his ashura avatar. Yes sasuke rinnegan was new but PS > rinnegan abilities that bijuu PS he used no rinnegan mastery is ever gonna amount to that much power. They were equal with sasuke bijuu PS and indra arrow

Reread chapter 695 - Kyuubi Avatar = PS, PS Chidori = KA Bijuudama, etc. Both Naruto, and Sasuke matched each others moves, and neither of them showed any exhaustion.

It wasn't until Sasuke took portions of the Bijuus chakra that he overpowered Naruto. If they were even as soon as Sasuke took the Bijuus chakra, then Naruto wouldn't have been getting owned until he received all the natural energy above ground. Nature energy is combined with the users chakra to create Senjutsu which further powers the user up. Naruto was then able to match Sasuke again hence Double RS = Indra's Arrow.

" . He was on the defensive when the fight started hence why sasuke telling him to stop holding back when sasuke absorbed the bijuu chakra thats when naruto got serious cuz he wasnt trying to die lol. "

Yeah, and was Sasuke going all out when he said that? No, he was never out of breath. He was warning Naruto, if he was really going all out them he wouldn't have calmly stopped to warn him.

And yes, Sasuke took the Bijuus chakra to overpower Naruto which would force him to go all out sooner, hence Naruto deciding to get ALL the natural energy above ground. Sasuke was fully confident on being able to defeat Naruto even before he got the Bijuus chakra, and never showed any sign of losing. Naruto was being naive, and not taking things seriously at first so he didn't go on the offensive.


" Yes sasuke rinnegan was new but PS > rinnegan abilities that bijuu PS he used no rinnegan mastery is ever gonna amount to that much power. "

You think power is more important than skill. That's not always the case. Masashi restricted Sasuke to keep him from killing Naruto within a few panels.

Ever notice how Sasuke conveniently didn't have his Sword for the Final Battle? Gaiden Chapter 6 shows Swords can harm Naruto, Sasuke's Sword easily pierced through his body, now go take a look at the first few pages of chapter 695, Sasuke teleported behind Naruto, and hit him with Chidori, If he had his Sword then he could have pierced him through the head or heart for an instant kill instead of using Chidori, and Naruto would be dead.
