So...do i start with the uzumaki senju relationship, konoha's exploitation of uzumaki women, the scattering of the uzumaki or the shady asf destruction of the village?
Ok so what first stood out to me about Kushina's arrival is the fact that the sole reason she came was to become the next jinchuriki, like a grooming of some sort. Though it makes sense, because of the Uzumaki's long life force and their ties to the Senju clan butIt just doesn't sit well with me.
Because (and this is just headcanon) what if, by chance, Kushina were to say she didn't want to? Would they have found another candidate? What reason did they have to make Kushina specifically a jinchuriki? Her close relation with Mito? (Surely Mito knew other people in her home village other than Kushina). Her special chakra? (do they mean special as in to HER or special as in uzumaki clan stuff)
It also makes me wonder how the uzumaki clan thinks. Because if they saw having a beast sealed inside a little kid as an honorary sacrifice, then I will say that it's the same blind Will Of Fire that they're following, and that what they're doing to kids is grooming.
If they saw Kushina as an unlucky sacrifice, then that's a different story. I wonder how they feel about Konoha picking up one of their own then? Do they hold resentment towards the nine tails, Mito or Konoha? Or are they passive about the entire thing? ( acceptance would sound like sociocultural normalization of taking in kids for sealing, which I highly doubt, because Mito was the first person to have the jinchuriki sealed in her so they won't be as used to it yet).
Also Mito and Hashirama had a kid??? Why not just seal it in your kid??? It worked for Minato and Kushina dhfhdhd I'm– did the kid die or some shit????? I need RECEIPTS fhdhdhd
I don't know what the deal is with sealing the nine tails in uzumaki ;-; obito and madara took on the ten tails like a whole ass boss–kurama ain't that special smh 😭
It was called it a burden that Kushina must bear, and that's very disturbing. What they mean by "must"?? Kushina is a child (about 10-12), and not mentally capable of making these sorts of decisions. When Mito sealed the beast in her she was a full fledged adult, and now they're passing this burden to a child like it means nothing.
(Yes, Naruto was a kid too but those circumstances are entirely different. Not great either, but Different.)
This is a child that is not from their village, might I add.
It's not like there isn't someone from Konoha who can't host the nine tailed beast (the senju have been shown to live very long, too long if you ask me like wtf). The Uzumaki's longevity is a justifiable answer, but it doesn't take away the fact that because of the clans' kekkei genkai they are being used and exploited.
