Has it ever been addressed what happens when a jinchuukiri dies with the
demon still inside them? The most likely options
seem to be that either the demon is freed, or it is killed. Neither
quite makes sense, though. If it were killed when the
host died, then someone would have killed Naruto long ago, and if it
were freed when the host died, the the Kyuubi would be
working a lot harder to get him killed... and Akatsuki could still
retrieve the Kyuubi even if Naruto were dead.

I believe the going theory is this:

The reason it was necessary to use an infant as the jinchuuriki for Kyuubi
is because the longer a jinchuuriki lives with a demon sealed inside him,
the more intertwined the demon's soul and the host's soul become; after a
few decades, the bond may be so strong that the two souls will not separate
when the host dies, thus permanently "killing" the demon.

Not saying you should change it. Just that Sakura's letting her worries
interfere with her common sense ^_^;.

WHAT common sense? She's a thirteen-year-old girl. They don't HAVE common
sense.

I know its canon, but it strikes me that the Kyuubi is remarkably lucid
and intelligent for a demon. It's been commented
recently by Akatsuki that tailed demons are no better than dumb beasts
that can't properly use they great power they possess
when they aren't controlled to a human, and Shuukaku seemed little
smarter than a child when he was fully released. Maybe it
varies, though... or maybe the Kishimoto is changing history -_-;...

Or maybe the Akatsuki don't know as much as they think they do.

       "Very many things," Orochimaru answered.  "But for one, this."
Moving too quickly to see, he reached down Naruto's shirt and yanked
away the necklace Tsunade had given him before becoming Hokage.

Ah yes, the bizarrely phallic necklace...

o.o;;

And now, for something completely different:

[Naruto] "TADPOLE NO JUTSU!"
[Sakura, Ino, Tenten] "EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!"
[Hinata] *SWOON*
