Konoha's fucking brainwashing agenda drives me so fucking insane like don't even get me started😭😫❌😐💀☹️☝🙂😤🤡💀😭😭
Genuinely all the emotions I go thru everytime I think about it.
Konoha's will of fire, more like, my (Hokage and those in power) will to overpower urs into putting the village before EVERYTHING
Itachi's the prime example, like what
It's honestly baffling. Like genuinely I might be wrong but lowkey cult vibes in Konoha. Cuz when I think about this concept, Jiraiya's threat to Tsunade comes to mind in part 1 Naruto when they're tryna get Tsunade to be hokage... Like he tells her, he will kill her if she ever did something to harm the village.... Like---??? Maybe I'm not all that big on patriotism so I completely miss the sentiment there but... Seems a lil extreme to me... Like also it's a ninja world rife with wars but still Tsunade was his team mate and friend from childhood. They've fought in wars together??? How??? I'm sorry, that scene baffled me the first time I watched it.
Most of these characters give brainwashed by the will of fire which is just Konoha's agenda to keep readily available soilders on standby, keep increasing them in number and make sure they're so deeply loyal they would betray their own flesh and blood for the village, so they can be a powerful military state. And it helps, that this process starts from childhood, like these kids enroll as toddlers in earlier times and 6 yrs in Naruto's gen... You see it?? Like of course they're insanely fucking loyal, that's the bullshit they've been fed since the fucking beginning.
Lowkey strayed off Minato and Kushina. Getting back on point, Minato is actually crazy. To be perfectly honest, I don't really like the guy. Like he's interesting... But he pisses me off. Also I think it's hot take anyway so don't flame me, it's my own personal bias that stops me from liking him. One of the things that adds on to that is his choice to disrespect Kushina's wish as divine moot has already pointed out, cuz to me it reads as he never saw Kushina as an equal. I think it's a byproduct of Kishi's misogyny at the end of the day but I genuinely disliked the scene despite it being quite emotional where both Kushina and Minato are dying cuz I was like Minato chose to seal Kurama in Naruto when there was no need.
Okay im gonna add a rebuttal to my own point actually and say it was necessary canonically to maintain a power balance between the hidden villages, which fair enough... I think Konoha sitting on top as one of the strongest military states probably did have them as quite a target, specially with Iwa I think. So, I do see why Minato did what he did, but again... Also screwed Naruto over in the process when he could've let Kurama go die with Kushina and raised Naruto himself... Did bro forget he's the flash??? Bro took out thousand shinobi in like what 10 mins? With the flyin raijin... Why are YOU worried about losing the war...
You could've handled it yourself... Plus if a war broke out, Jiraiya wouldve spawned, u still had Sarutobi and fucking Danzo would be pulling shitty shit behind the scenes anyway to protect Konoha. Like ,,, how are YOU losing. Kakashi the fucking copy ninja is in ur ranks. Crazy fucking people live in ur village brev, are u telling me y'all won't be able to handle Iwa or Cloud going against u?? Don't make me laugh, you're not going up against Madara or Akatuski, BREATHE.
So all in all -2/10 decision Minato, fuck you. I also believe Kushina should've been Hokage with Minato as her advisor. Would go so hard.
No hate to MinaKushi, amazing ship cuz it only had a few chapters of development, if it was a main ship it would've been fucked lol. So it escaped the curse sasusaku and naruhina suffer from.
Minato creeps me out ngl lmao. No I will not expand on it, he's just off...
