I was just giving an example of what could happen. There is no fact that Kushina was going to commit suicide. She probably would just will herself to die to protect both Minato and Naruto and take Kurama with her. Minato refused this and sealed half in him and the other half in Naruto, the beginning of Naruto's lonely life. There would be no point to this unless Kushina was beyond saving. Otherwise, She would've just resealed the Kyuubi and happily raised their son with her husband. The only way this doesn't happen is that at this point in the story such a thing was impossible. Later on? Retcon city baby! Thekillman wrote: It's not a retcon. Kushina was already too weakened when Minato was in a position to reseal Kurama. Naruto on the other hand was on medical attention pretty much from the start. Had Kurama been captured earlier, Kushina would've survived just fine. That might be your headcanon, but that's not true. Up until that moment, multiple characters had stated that you die when your bijuu gets extracted and there was nothing that can save you. Every Jinchuuriki we saw on screen in that situation followed this pattern. That's the reason every naruto forum during that time was wondering why in hell is Kushina taking so long to die. This was explained due to her Uzumaki body. However, it was just a matter of time. Nothing could've saved her regardless at that point in the story. Otherwise, Minato basically murdered his wife, by not teleporting her to a medical nin immediately.

Your assertion is wrong, due to the fact that Kushina's Uzumaki blood was far thicker than Naruto's and she was in far better shape than Naruto. For you to be correct, someone would've had to make such a statement or a panel would've had to depict your description. Please, point to any such panel, description, or statement. There is absolutely nothing I can see that supports your claim.

Only when the main character gets his bijuu extracted does it magically become possible to save a jinchuuriki that way. This is one of the biggest retcons ever seen in a manga. The author then takes it further. Characters continue to talk about how nothing can save Obito now that he's had his Bijuu extracted. (Black Zetsu comes to mind.) Simultaneously, Kirabi is saved with nothing more than a single tail at the last minute. This was not only a retcon it was an ass pull. I seem to recall hearing a news report about someone that mistakenly sat on the drain in a whirlpool and their colon was pulled out of their rectum. That is exactly what happened to Kishi when he wrote this. Rachin123 wrote: Rachin123 wrote: Strong feelings huh? Then explain to me why Sasuke didn't awaken the Sharingan after witnessing the atrocity of his clan's massacre and even more, that his brother was behind it.

Also, it wasn't love that activated Sarada's Sharingan, as she didn't even know her father. It was excitement of finally being able to see him. And even so, if that was the case, almost all of the Uchiha clan should have had the Sharingan. It was just a cheap way to give Sarada the Sharingan. It is what it is. 5 years later (Sasuke) compared to a few hours later (Sarada). Enough said. You can try to make excuses, but the fact is it doesn't make sense. Now you are telling me that wanting know who you father is, has a stronger emotional impact on you then witnessing your clan get massacred over and over again, and to know that your brother was the one who did it, and you mean to tell me that he couldn't activate it again until 5 years later regularly. I don't think so. Sasuke did awaken 1 tomoe Sharingan when he threw the kunai at Itachi and Itachi was crying. Then he passed the hell out and forgot all about it, thus having to do it again much later. He wasn't even aware of what had happened to him, due to the trauma of Tsukuyomi, his situation, and his focus on Itachi. Sarada had no such trauma, did not pass out, and had a much clearer head to work with. Obito awoke his 2 tomoe Sharingan because he really, really, really wanted to save Rin and was instead about to get killed if he didn't. Same pattern as Sarada. No trauma, awake, clear head. Sasuke awakens 3 tomoe at VotE. Same pattern. Determination, awake, clear head. Kakashi awoke MS at the same time as Obito. Kakashi passed out and didn't remember MS. Similar pattern as Sasuke's initial wakening. Kishi isn't always consistent, but on this he wasn't nearly as bad as you're claiming. From the beginning desperation or determination also appeared to be emotions that awaken regular Sharingan, not just loss. Sarada was desperate and/or determined to see her father.
