Whenever I see these threads about the women of Naruto being weak and useless, I keep facepalming about how they forget about two pretty awesome/OP characters.

Chiyo: Do I really need to explain how she isn't weak?

Kushina: Everyone seems to forget about her. She was able to survive having a Tailed beast being ripped out of her, and was able to fight the nine-tails for a little while nonetheless. Not to mention, shes awesome :D

To a lesser degree, I could say Konan was useful too.


Although, I can definitely say that a majority of the women in naruto are weak/weaker.

Tsunade: I would call her the weakest of the Sannin. While i DEFINITELY dont think shes weak, she kind of bites off more than she can chew in many cases (Orochimaru, Madara, Pain, etc.)

Sakura: She's like a watered-down version of Tsunade, and she has the mental strength of a teaspoon IMO. Why she still tries to defend Sasuke to this day I'll never know. She was maybe 12, and she had a crush for about 2 years. She can get over it.

Ino: Other than being part of Ino-Shika-Cho, there isnt much to her.

Hinata: I like her much more than the other girls, as she actually had the balls to stand up to Pain. She isnt useless, but shes pretty weak comparatively to the other characters.

Tenten: Yeah, pretty much useless in the series. I only give a crap about her in Naruto SD (no complaints there):tenten:

I could go on and on. I just wanted to call out some of the female characters who are actually useful.

Well to the men they are under powered. Most of them are healers.

Well no guy wants to be outshone by a woman. I bet Kishi is just playing it safe by not making them the main focus.

Because they are.

But seriously Naruto isn't the only anime/manga in the world. If you want a manga/anime with powerful women,don't be mad Naruto doesn'thave it, just go watch/read one that does.

Its is not that the konouchi of Naruto are weak it is just that the Ninja are usually stronger is all there is a difference.

They are not weak, but when people compare them to the males they will look weak.
Anyway, women in general are not meant to be stronger than men, but they are better in other areas.

I don't understand the overrating of Kushina
She only survived the Kyuubi because she was an Uzumaki, not because she was really powerful.
They way she got kidnapped by those fodder ninja that later got easily got taken out by Minato just proved that she's basically just another weak women from the Narutoverse.
People just want a reason to call her powerful just because she's Naruto's mom.

Characters like Naruto, Sasuke, Obito, Gai, Lee (who was just epic in part 1), Kakashi, Madara, and others make the women look extremely trash.

Basically because women in the manga are lways outclassed. EVen tsunade who is kage level and sanin gets out calssed by the other sanin. She got beat up by kabuto in part 1. J-man and Oro would never get that type of disrepsect. Kishi would never even right them into a story where they get beat by kakashi. Yet tsunade gets her *ss handed to her by another medical ninja deppite her supossed to be the more experienced one. And to add insult to injury kabuto got taken out by naruto(a genin) just moments later
