Tsunade is a legendary Sanin, like Jiraiya and Orochimaru. She has been a prominent character throughout the Naruto universe.
Her character is a combination of a brutal fighting style and the ability to heal others using medicinal chakra techniques. She has never shied away from the spotlight.
Because of the way her chakra manipulates her cell growth, Tsunade appears to be much younger than she actually is.
Her amazing healing chakra can sustain her skin, so she is able to keep her youthful appearance, even though she is the same age as Jiraiya.
What is Tsunade’s True Form?
Tsunade’s genes contain both Senju and Uzumaki DNA. Her genetic makeup gives her an extraordinary amount of viability and life force, as well as a significant boost in strength.
She looks young because of her abundant life energy. She is able to maintain herself during long fights thanks to her overbearing chakra levels, something that even Jiraiya cannot do.
Tsunade’s true form is her appearance when she doesn’t use a beauty technique, unlike Jiraiya, who is proud of his older appearance.
What is Tsunade’s Age?
We can compare her to Jiraiya, her former friend Orochimaru and see that Tsunade appears younger than either of them.
Her healing technique, Creation Rebirth, is a major abuse of her body, to the point that it causes her cells’ overdrive.
Jiraiya mentions that this technique can significantly reduce Tsunade’s lifespan, as it’s driving catalyst to overload her cells.
Why does Tsunade look so old in his real form?
Her genetic makeup includes both Senju and Uzumaki’s DNA. This gives her tremendous vitality, strength, longevity, and life force. A majority of people her age were not chemically altered, augmented, or had wrinkles.
Tsunade and Jiraiya fought in the same battles and wars. It seemed like Tsunade had more chakra because Tsunade could heal or battle while Jiraiya was often injured (Sannin Vs Hanzo).
Why did Jiraiya look older than she?
Jiraiya confirmed that she never used “youthful appearances.”
What is the age of Tsunade in Boruto?
Lady Tsunade is, as we know, one of Hidden Leaf Village’s Legendary Sannin. She also includes Jiraiya sensei and other members.
Her ancestors are both from the Senju and Uzumaki lines, which give her incredible boons in life force, brute strength, and vitality.
She was driven to become the Fifth Hokage by the repeated loss of people she loved. Her healing skills proved to be invaluable to the village.
It has been suggested that Tsunade was in her 50s during the events of Naruto Shippuden. She would have been in her 70s by the time he appears in Boruto.
Fans might miss her rampaging with her strength, as she isn’t seen often in the new Boruto. She still looks young thanks to all the chakra that she was able to store pile after the war.
Final Words
Tsunade is in her 50s throughout the series. However, you might be asking “but she seems quite older than 50” and that would be correct.
Tsunade in her natural/permanent genjutsu-free form looks more like Lady Koharu.
Based on this analysis, should Tsunade naturally look the same age as her? Tsunade’s natural age is much older than it should be, but she can do a “life-altering” jutsu to make this happen.
This “rare” form is difficult to see because she has tapped out her chakra and depleted her chakra pool.
Her body’s biological age is due to the “said pinnacle”, which rapidly divides her cells to heal.
This accelerates that replication process on an even faster scale than normal. This causes cell division to occur faster than normal and ages the body beyond what is normal.
