Is Tsunade capable of hitting opponents with speed like Kakashi?

Good pics. I just felt that since the susanoo's slow that it wouldn't be a good example. There are 2 ways to interperate the top picture. A. Tsunade forced Madara to defend or B. He underestimated her strength. However, with the dragoon flame, the first is more likely.
The second picture is the most impressive, if you ask me.If you look closely you can see Tsunade appeared out of nowhere.
Thats a decent speed feat.

I agree sharingan wont make you faster he must mean his reactions would be faster

yes i mean that sahringan make his reaction much better and faster
kakashi without gates can move without the normal eye see him(he is the one who taught sasuke the speed in part1 which he used against gara)
imagine him with 2 gates

People on here always degrade tsunade by illustrating how slow her techniques and taijutus skills are. There secondary research comes from the data book as well as the fight with her and Kabuto. It's now reach to a point of desperation since she is labeled as the worst hokage in the leaf. Roles are not acknowledge in this site but rather OP and cool jutsu's by powerful shinobi's. The creator of this thread should be applauded for speaking the truth and actually allowing a female kunochi to not be labeled as an amateur but a symbol of respect.

Thanks. I just hear the "Tsunade is slow" over and over again, but I don't see any actual evidence that she's slow. She's not really fast, but she's not slow either. I also brought this up because the threads recently were boring.

I disagree.
In the example you gave kabuto was only trying to get away from kakashi and has already stated his taijutsu wasn't his strongest suit. In fact everything kakashi explained was in reference to his medical ninjutsu and that's the only reason he can contend with kakashi.

When it comes to madara:
a) he was toying with them
b) it's 5 against 1
c) she hit a clone.

I don't see her landing hits against guy because unlike kabuto he is a taijutsu specialist and is overall faster than her
I don't see her landing hits against kakashi because of sharingan precognition and his monstrous use of clone feints (he tricked half of the akatsuki) and the fact that she fell for clone feints before.
I don't see her landing hits against naruto due to his overwhelming clone spam, greater speed and sage mode danger sensing.
I don't see her landing hits against sasuke since he has sharingan precog and a flurry of long range attacks she isn't fast enough to dodge.

Taijutsu skills have nothing to do with speed. Is a racer a skilled martial artist? My point is that since he escaped, he must have the same level of speed as Kakashi and when he fought Tsunade, he enhanced himself with food pills. That indicates that Kabuto may have had speed greater speed than Kakashi at that point but still needed to resort to using her fear even after weakening and slowing her down by attacking her muscles and breathing.

As for Madara a) that's true, but I think that the only way he was toying with them was not going all out with susanoo
b)In the picture I used, Tsunade was the only one attacking at that moment. You'll see the other Kage a distance away and not attacking in the next panel (Garra is only sealing after Tsunade's attack)He wasn't overwhelmed by numbers at that point.
c)Your point is? I already took this into consideration in the introduction of this thread.

Kabuto opened his eyes you know. Also, he resorted to using her fear despite the fact that he had a food pill, got her muscles and breathing, and was very close to recovering from the nerve short circuit.

Yes, Madara anticipated it. That's different from reacting. Wouldn't have been an even better decoy if he had it distract her even more by dodging?

That was after Tsunade made a move.

@bold: Plot rolls forward particularly to Masashi's liking.

Her speed is under rated but she hasnt shown an amazing speed feats which is wat most people compare her to... she deffinetly isnt as slow as people say she is tho... als considering her taijutsu.. most people compare her to Gai in terms or taijutsu skill.. this is why people say her taijutsu skill isnt very good... her attacks look a bit sloppy compared to gai ..

admittingly gai is a master at taijutsu and has a different taijutsu style so this isnt fair on tsunade who uses her own style to benefit her strength
