There's a stream up on Twitch right now that's playing episodes of Naruto Shippuden, and earlier it was showing the mini arc of how Hashirama and Madara met, and how Izuna's death drove Madara to forsake his dream of peace twice over.
There's the moment where Tobirama runs Izuna through with the Flying Raijin Slice, and Madara getting ready to book it with Izuna in tow to try to heal the wound, only for Hashirama to stop and tell him the rest of the Uchiha that didn't defect over to the Senju should stop fighting or the war is just going to continue.
And I'm over here like...His little brother is bleeding out, dude. Wouldn't it be better to. You know. Lay him down on the ground and heal him right there and then. And end up convincing Madara that there can be peace. And then go on with the speech? Like, don't get me wrong, it's cute, and I like that Hashirama fought for his idealism and his dream, but I think if he had just saved the talking for, like, five minutes later, Izuna would still be alive.
#like. just watching it all play out threw me for a loop#they're in a period that's reminiscent of the real life warring states era#and yet in that same time frame they also have electricity#if they can have electricity OF ALL THINGS then it's not too far off the mark#for something like medical science to be that far behind#like maybe the industrialization made it more advanced#but hashirama was like the second coming of ninja jesus#i'm pretty sure the mokuton healing jutsu could've sealed up izuna's wound??#dude couldn't have stopped madara from leaving w/ a jutsu and just tried?? healing his little brother??#he could've done all that instead of talking it out while IZUNA IS BLEEDING TO DEATH??#i'm sorry i don't really go here but that was just straight bullshit lol#hashirama!! you're smarter than this!!#don't just stand there! help another brother out!#but no let's have the plot make you talk INSTEAD of taking action!!#naruto
