tsunade just has a bad attitude, she wants to protect the village but not so much from the hokage's seat (if she had the choice)

technically she saved the most lives by direct action, and taught sakura medical techs and taijutsu which not only saved th life of kankouro, but formed an alliegance with the sand that accomplished a great deal (took care of the sand's greatest criminal which lead to the revival of their kage).

that has to count for something

yea i dont say she is a bad kage actually if you look at what she actually has a pretty good rap sheet. The other Kages are tough acts to follow.

big **** = best leader

Sarutobi is probably the best of the kages... he really exemplified what a hokage should be like.

Indeed.

A tactical genius being able to discern things well before others and formulate almost perfect plans right on the spot.

Plain ol' genius: A master of most to all jutsus we know of...and even a couple that only a handful were aware of.

Thought even further ahead than the Konoha council members.

Sought to forge alliance of peace and mutual assistance, which was really the first attempt at doing so. (I don't recall any other Kage doing that until the 3rd.)

Was all over the place, teaching at every level. (something we don't see Tsunade doing...simply because she can't teach much.)

Despite being quite old when he fought Oro, still had more chakra than most other people in the Naruto-verse.

Fought the first, second, and Oro at the same time.

He was also a very kind, yet firm, leader. He thought of others, especially the village.

The last 3 kages personified what it means be kage: protecting the village up to and including their own lives.

Yeah, but didn't he actually guess that oro was gonna attack and do nothing about it? If I recall correctly anyway....

Or maybe that was Kakashi. Anyway, someone screwed up.

It's just me who misses orochimaru's evil presence?

Since he was owned by sasugay and "killed" in that stupid way that naruto lacks a true villain. I mean, madara? The guy is pretty good telling stories, but besides that... Sasuke? Just a spoiled brat. Pain? Redeemed in the end, doesn't even count. Even itachi was not a bad guy after all...

This manga is seriously lacking a true villain, one immune to naruto's talk no jutsu...

Yea I miss him. He was evil just for the sake of being evil. He wanted power, and not much else. Nothing petty like revenge that Sasuke, and Madara want, and not doing things he know are evil for what they think is the greater good like Pain, and seems to be Danzo. Oro was just pure, and strictly evil, and proud of it.

😆 I agree. I doubt even if Minato survived he would have lived up to Saru's legacy in that department.

I think Kishi's trying to put Danzo in that slot.

Yeah, his only flaw was letting Oro escape when they first found out he was crazy. He had such high hopes for Oro that he didn't want to fight him, even though at the time he could probably have done so easily if he'd desired.

Hey! A discussion where my bias against Naruto(characters) doesn't get in the way. To Sarutobi letting Orochimaru go seems pretty reasonable from his perspective. But I'm glad that I not the only one that detests Tsunade's hokage methods. She still did her job as village protector pretty well.(If not for her, everyone would have been killed by Pain)

Although I don't think the second hokage was so hot either. I mean c'mon he was a nobody compared to his brother despite his status.

P.S: Anyone else miss Orochimaru?

well Pein revived everyone anyway so it was kinda redundant

BTW, what's Kakashi's status?? i can't remember if that's been resolved already or not

Well remember, the protection of Konoha is not the hokage's main job, their loyalty is to the land of fire in general, konoha is only one village. IMO, if she really wanted to protect konoha she should have taken proactive action against Akatsuki by devoting more resources to doing the sort of stuff Jiraiya was.

I think the second hokage may have been one of the best, but we never really found out. Because to my knowledge, it was under him that konoha became the greatest hidden village. iirc, he was also Sarutobi's teacher.

C'mon its Tsunade! You really expect her to do stuff like that? In terms of activity and readiness she's an old female version of Shikamaru. The story doesn't go into detail about the second or fourth even thought stories say that Minato was a beast on the battlefield.

To the question on what Kakashi is doing, he's a live and well unless its about him taking the role of Hokage; I'm not sure on that one sorry.

when has tsunade displayed even half of shikamarus intelligence? 😐

The way she handled the rebuilding of konoha was pretty well thought out and smart talking about part 1.im pretty sure you have to be pretty smart in order to be that good at medicine. Although she wasnt as powerful as the other hokage she did make a difference in the village i mean she helped so many peoplle survive when they should have died or retired from being a ninja.......Sasuke,Lee,Njei,Choji 2 years later she saved the whole village from death

danzou's a better villain than oro, he's the "politician type". plus orochimaru and itachi worked for him.

You're correct. She is literally THE best medical ninja in history.

A medical ninja has to have ultra high chakra control. You could say that medical ninjas have to have the highest chakra contorl in the group, which takes hours upon hours of practice. Sakura had uber chakra control almost nothing when she did jutsus. She mastered walking in no time flat, whereas, Sasuke and Naruto had to practice at it for hours and both are literally geniuses.

Tsunade is quite talented. She should be every bit as talented as Kabuto and then some.

We just...haven't...seen her fight.

We know that the three Sannin held their own against the Hanzo...which would include Tsunade. So, she was strong enough to hold up.

Also, it'd be near impossible to injure her unless you hit a vital as she can heal on the fly (Sakura did it)

Sorry for not clarifying, I wasn't comparing intellect I was comparing motivation and just giving a damn all together. In this category Tsunade has as much motivation and enthusiasm as Shikamaru.(which is none at all)

Danzou is good villian material but I might never realize it since Sasuke just made me loose interest in his fight. I might not even be able to see what he can really do because of it.
