Your words, word for word, just proved OP's point.
OT: He's underrated to an extent like with what the person I quoted just said. But he's also overrated by many on NB. I'm a big Minato fan but I think he is pretty overrated on this site. I agree with what you said, those panels show how quick he figured out Obito's moves, those panels are nothing but Minato basically deciphering his technique. His intelligence is what underrated IMO
Yup, his intelligence.. I wish I could change the title lol.

Haha if people read the whole OP, they might understand what you mean. But the title is going to make everyone come to your thread and say he's overrated haha so just be ready for that.

He is smart and its great that he can teleport around. But he lacks in defence and offence compared to so many kage level shinobies.
Excelling in speed only, makes him weaker, and there is limit to what intellect can overcome. He would have lost to obito had obito not underestimate him.

no ....no prob. danzo, but not itachi
I just think Minato is really underrated on NB. I always see people saying things like "Minato only has FTG, Rasengan and a Kunai"

Minato may perhaps have the same level of intellect as Itachi.

Take a look at this.

He knew nothing about Tobi's abilities, but was able to figure out his abilities with only two close encounters.

Then here..

Basic right..? Wrong. Minato had to be very precise here. He had to know the EXACT time to throw that Kunai or he would have lost. If he threw it even a second later, he wouldn't have been able to get directly behind Tobi and hit him with Rasengan.

With intellect, you can turn the tide of any battle in your favor.

Not a great thread, but as an Uchiha fan, even I can see how low Minato is placed on the ranks.

hater logic ftw
no, this excuse doesnt work, to win obito needs to touch him and warp which isnt happening with ftg

Mokuton works, genjutsu works. Ever wondered why obito brought a chain? He wasnt goin for the kill

People underrate him because they think you can only win with flashy jutsus

He deserves top 15 though. Regardless.
