Talk:Tsunade

Incapacitated?
Shouldn't Tsunade be under the category of incapacitated, after all she is in a coma. 70.52.47.195 (talk) 22:22, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Shikamaru1994


 * "Incapacitated", or some similar label, is only used when the character might be dead but needs confirmation. Tsunade is very much alive. ~SnapperTo 02:36, 22 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Isn't that "presumed deceased"? We have so many combo's that i'm not quite sure, which is which :S..--AlienGamer--Talk-- 02:54, 22 August 2009 (UTC)


 * That's for characters who are probably dead, or at the very least won't be seen again (a la most anime villains). "Incapacitated" comes into play in cases like those few chapters where Kakashi and Hinata were maybe dead. ~SnapperTo 03:03, 22 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, rite...Thanx...--AlienGamer--Talk-- 03:06, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Team Tsunade?
Has Tsunade ever had a team? We know that she is the master of Shizune and Sakura but unlike Jiraiya and Orochimaru she didn't have any apprentice. We know that Jiraiya had three genin including Minato Namikaze, and Orochimaru had Anko, what about her? She took on Shizune after Dan died and left the village, did she had any apprentice before that time?
 * As far as we know, Tsunade never had a genin team like Jiraiya and Orochimaru. She probably taught many medical-nin, though. --ShounenSuki (talk 04:28, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
 * You're most likely right, since we know she was the one to come up with the idea of founding a medical organization in Konoha, and since the Third Hokage himself says they, Konoha, lacked the knowledge to found such an organization, it'd make sense Tsunade would be the one to train numerous medical ninja at the Konoha Hospital. Though of course, there's no proof, and if it's mentioned in the article, it'll be purely speculative. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 23:08, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Bell Capture
Shouldn't it be mentioned that, along with Orochimaru, Tsunade was one of the members of Team Hiruzen to take a bell? It's shown in flashbacks... Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 23:06, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Lightning Release
It is very clear that Important Body Points Disturbance is a technique that converts chakra into electricity (it is even stated in the article itself), which is the point of Lightning Release. It was agreed in Archive 1 that it the Nature Type (Lightning) should be added to Tsunade's article. Why was it deleted? Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 06:57, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * "The "electricity" Tsunade used is out of context of the use of any normal lightning release"..--AlienGamer--Talk (contribs)-- 07:00, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * How do we know this? I'm still unable to understand how converting chakra into electricity ISN'T Lightning release. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 07:03, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Think that was a databook entry...--AlienGamer--Talk (contribs)-- 07:06, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's really very confusing. If anybody can find on a databook that Important Body Points Disturbance isn't a Lightning Release technique, then we should mention in her article that, although the technique looks like Raiton, it isn't. Otherwise, I think we should add Lightning release to her article, even if we need to put (presumed) next to it. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 07:13, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Unlike other element techniques, it doesn't say "Raiton" before the name. This is what ShounenSuki translated and posted on Mangahelpers:
 * Body Pathway Derangement (乱身衝, Ranshinshou)
 * Ninjutsu, A-rank, Supplementary, Short range (0-5m)
 * User: Tsunade
 * Disturbing body control by severing the pathways of [brain←→body] information flow!!
 * [pictures of Kabuto discovery his loss of body control]
 * ↑One's own body moves in any way, except how one wants it to move...!? For the common shinobi, battle, not to mention even just walking, will become impossible.
 * An attack that severs the control threads with a flash of lightning
 * [picture of Tsunade hitting Kabuto with this technique]
 * ↑As soon as strike of the hand lands, electricity is poured into the enemy's nervous system, severing the signals!!
 * By transforming the chakra within one's body and giving it the properties of electricity, one creates an electric field. By pouring this into the nervous system of one's opponent, one deranges their body control! An extremely high-level technique, used as a medical ninjutsu. The human body is controlled with electrical signals from the brain, but a person who had those electrical signals cut off with this technique will become unable to make their body move as they want. Because she's an expert in medical treatments, Tsunade was able to master this technique.
 * I hope this will settle this. Jacce | Talk 07:23, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Yes, thanks.

Hime
Would it be appropriate to add "Hime" (Princess) to her titles, right under Fifth Hokage? The titles under her picture. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 03:20, September 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * Heh, there are far more names and titles missing from that list.
 * We need a better way to list all those names... --ShounenSuki (talk 12:47, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

 * how about a simple aka (also known as) section under titles Fawcettp (talk) 00:07, September 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't recall anyone who has many titles as her though. If I had to choose one more to add however, it would be :* ; It's a conjuction of most of her other titles. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 00:25, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Chakra Scalpel
We know she can use it, but we've never actually seen it, which is why we don't list it. However, I think we overlooked episode 95, when the tip of her finger glows green and she runs her hand through Naruto's shirt, ripping it. Isn't that Chakra Scalpel? I wanted to consult you guys before adding it to her Jutsu. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 03:30, September 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * You might have just brought a conclusion to a long and annoying issue... I managed to find that scene in the manga as well. Tsunade uses chakra to cut open Naruto's shirt on page 9 of chapter 168. I have no doubt that's the chakra scalpel.
 * However, since this is a somewhat controversial issue, you might want to wait for more editors to chime in. --ShounenSuki (talk 07:36, September 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * I didn't think it'd be such a controversial issue. You'd imagine the woman that is thought to be the greatest medical ninja in the shinobi world would be able to use chakra scalpel. But if you say so, I shall wait for more people. How long should we give it before adding it if others don't disagree in the end? Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 09:48, September 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * It wasn't that people believed she couldn't use it, it was that we never had any proof she used it. We don't add techniques to characters' jutsu lists unless there's actual evidence they can use it. There have been many revert wars and discussions over this because no-one could provide actual proof that Tsunade could use chakra scalpel, other than "she's the greatest medical-nin in the world". You just provided proof, but I'd suggest we give it 24 hours, just to be safe. --ShounenSuki (talk 11:11, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Stats in the Databook
I noticed that the databook lists a character's ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, etc. in a 1/5 kind of manner. I think we should add it to the trivia of every character with revealed stats in the databook, but since I only know Tsunade's stats I decided to leave the idea here. Has this been suggested before? It seems like something people would've heard about beforehand and maybe it has been discarded. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 19:43, September 18, 2009 (UTC)
