Is this thread about speculations or spoilers? Due to the lack of [Manga] or [Anime] tag and your unsure tone, I really can't tell.

There's so many things I could say that would ruin it, but let's just say she's strong enough to be hokage like Jiraiya said, and she has a really cool personality.

Where did you hear she was weak like Sakura?

I've heard people say this as well, but I think the original poster misinterpreted it--their original words were probably something along the lines of "just like Sakura, Tsunade appears to be the weakest of the three."

Spoiler for *MANGA SPOILER*:

Tsunade is most famously known as the best medical specialist of the Leaf, but because of her Sannin-status, I presume she is not shabby in other areas but perhaps not as good as Orochimaru (jutsu-obsessed maniac) and Jiraiya (horny peepin' master). Her raw physical prowess is definitely to be feared--one blow can knock walls apart and split ground open. We saw Tsunade fight all-out only in the latter half of the Sannin battle--and she beat the crap out of Oro AND Manda, so I fail to see how she is weak just because she's a medical specialist.

Good point, not only that but we saw that she ACTUALLY got a bell from Sarutobi sensei. She HAS to be good.

Spoiler for manga:

holy shit? since when has sakura been buff enough to swing around a ginormous sword? or crush an entire section of pathway?? jeesus christ sakura must have been on some serious steroids

i bet whomever made that profile is just screwing with your mind.

[xxjc1104xx]

hmm... someone told me that she cant even beat jounins, only genins.. but that seemed out of proportion, that why i was confused hehe...

Umm...no. The only weakness I can see in her is that she was (or will seeing as you probably have yet to read the manga) emotionally unstable and she was unable to react automatically due to the fact that she was...emotionally unstable.

But she's strong dude, very strong. She's not comparable to Sakura. At. All.

Because people like to assume things.

Spoiler:

she "lost" to kabuto so everyone thinks kabuto is some godly ninja that can kill Oro. but since Kabuto "lost"(which i think is stupid) to Naruto, everyone thinks she's pathetically weak

[rikudark]

Spoiler:

Yeah, but he only "lost" to Naruto due to him underestimating Naruto's power. He thought that it would be one of Naruto's weak techniques and that he would heal instantly after it.

[KirbyMorph]

Weakness is probably due to her fear of blood (is she over that now or was that just a 'face your fears moment'?).

[Lexander]

I'm waiting for those spoiler tags ...

But anyways ... you'll find that Tsunade will be very underrated ... especially by the less bright Naruto fans.

Talking about the folks that use phrazes like "DUDE ITACHI OWNZ J00!"

"Naruto can beat up god!"

"Kakashi will chidori everything and go w00t I kicked your ass".


And ofcourse the people that judge a character's strength on the fact that the circumstance put a handicap on them.

Tsunade, weakest of the Legendary Three? .

Well, it might well be so... but she is on so many levels so much powerful than a normal jounin that it isn't funny to say she's like Sakura.

Spoiler:

However, you probably can consier her to be very rusty in combat skills - probably that is why Kabuto managed to hold his own against her. But in terms of her overall effectiveness... just ask Orochimaru what happened to his face.

Her crippling weakness might be the fear of blood, but... Tsunade got over her fear of blood when she suffered some major big wounds from Oro's attacks when protecting Naruto

Not even; just ask Manda where thes big holes through both his upper and lower mouth came from. XD

what about all the times (undoubtedly)

Spoiler:

jirara got smacked down when his "escaping" jutsu was discovered?

i think she might hit jirara for peeeping a little harder than she would

Spoiler:

kabuto's face

[rorosama]

You all sure xxjc1104xx isn't just pulling our legs? He's saying some of the most off the wall things i've ever heard in these forums(which is saying a lot!) Now that she's over the u know what, let's see what kabuto will do now!

I think its rather hard to judge "strength," in naruto. For example, Jiraiya could probably beat tsunade in a one on one, but her medical powers and chakra control would be VERY useful on a mission. Same idea with the present day Genins. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, they would all have something to contribute to the completion of a mission.

[wb_hicks]

Spoiler:

but in terms of strength i dont there has been on person in the manga that even comes close. both oro and jaraiya worry about that. jaraiya already got hit 100 meters by her and oro had to think about if he ever did fight her when she chattered the wall. but one of the funniest moments in naruto is when she beats naruto with one finger twice without moving from her spot. out of all three of them she is the best suited for the job. and now that she is the 5th i bet she will get back in shape and be even stronger then she is now.oh ya naruto may have some comp now with the females since she is the 1st female hokage. there might be others woman that want to get the title

If i'm not mistaken Jaraiya has never been caught, at least that's what he tells everyone
