Dude like literally I was thinking about this the other day

Kushina grew up bullied and hated and hating herself, stuck in a foreign village and forced to become vessel to the darkest most evil creature in the known world, no say in it whatsoever

Learned to love herself with help from Minato showing her that her red hair was actually beautiful //and hella useful lol//

She went through childbirth with NO medication to ease the pain, and then had Kurama pulled from her immediately after without any post-delivery care, and fucking lived

Like y’all, I got dilated to 4cm and just barely got past my water breaking before I had to get an epidural, and this woman survived two painful acts of bringing forth life from within her with 0 drugs. Bow the fuck down tbh

She used the last dregs of strength in her already worn-out body to stop her son from being killed, knowing it would surely kill her

Kushina made imo the biggest sacrifice of the series and I’ll fight everyone in her good name. She didn’t have to die, she could have let Minato make his sacrifice alone, and I’m sure he would have preferred that, but she couldn’t just sit there and let him die alone, she couldn’t take any chance that her son might be harmed.

Kushina gave her life for her family moments after it was completed and god dammit she’s my hero.

Kushina is just. The best character and I will have your back in fighting everyone for her because she deserves it.

Not that she’d need us, she’s the Ultimate Cinnamon Roll. Too Powerful for this World. Too Strong.
