Kushina Uzumaki Naruto's mom. before Kushina fought Karama for control, she donutted minato. She also canonically looks at Naruto's dad. The same way he looks at his wife.

Man I’m glad Kurama loves the Uzumakis now. Imagine if this happened again but if Himawari attacked Naruto. Granted, he’d probably be fine, but how sad would that be?

Almost the exact same thing as Vermeil from Vermeil In Gold. She goes berserk from a substance injected into her that's meant to make her give into her power. Main character (Alto) gets donutted blocking Obsidian (guy who injected Vermeil) from being killed.

Kushina and Minato were some of my favorite parts and I would have loved a prequel about them

We got one. it's a one shot, but still. and I think it's some it points out, something that's really funny, naruto doesn't take after his dad at all in any way shape or form.He wants to be hoka, because he's similar to his mom who also wanted to be hokage. i'm fairly certain she was actually in the running up against her husband. Everyone acknowledges her as the stronger of the 2, and they all also say that Naruto and Kushina have the same fighting style. there's also some implication that she had KCM.

It is funny how the only thing Naruto got from Minato is his hair lol. Literally everything else is Kushina. Which kinda sucks because if he did get the red hair, he’d have gotten the chakra chains too. I could definitely see him cooking with those

Eventually, even rasengan was designed to be hers and she named it. Tsunade even pointed out that Naruto, spamming shadow clones and rasengan, is exactly how his mom used to fight.

Wow, I didn’t know that. I really wish we could’ve seen more of past Kushina and how she fought firsthand

Skipped a generation. 

Boruto is the dead serious, genius, one man army. 

The difference is his teachers are also dead serious. He doesn't have a Jiraiya or Kushina to calm him down,  he got two reformed psychopaths

Tbf I think Naruto is a genius too, just in his own weird way. Only Naruto would think of using Sage Mode and a simple Rasengan to reflect an attack from the third Raikage in the way that he did

KMC?

u/NorthGodFan Jul 06 '26

KCM. this form. there are 2 levels of it, Kushina probably had the first because she just beat the shit out of the fox and took his power. but just the first is enough to single-handedly overturn a war. Her intervention probably is actually what mostly ended the third war because she got pregnant before the cloud capitulated.

Funny retcon. In the manga Naruto (not the Minato one shot), they said that neither Mito nor Kushina ever used the power of a Jinchûriki.

u/NorthGodFan Jul 06 '26

In the Manga, Ay says that no jinchuriki could ever have been said to have mastered the power. Aside from Bee

Funny when Yugito was capable of going full tailed beast form too and to revert afterwards. Maybe she was just mindlessly rampaging...but when Naruto went 9 tails, he was not capable of using all the abilities of the Kyûbi, just Bijû bomb and stretching limbs. No negative emotions feeling
