A friend of mine itachi1000 requested me to make this thread of an analysis on what Minato's gift to Naruto will be, as you all know, a majority believe that it's actually Kurama's missing Yin Chakra that was sealed with Minato inside the Shiki Fuujin, personally I believe this to be the case (which is obvious btw) , but I would like to expound further on the matter.

Take a look at this:

Minato said he will use a seal that a non-Jinchuuriki can use this of course is in reference to sealing a Bijuu, particularly Kurama:

As you can see the Yin Chakra of Kurama is assimilated inside Minato's soul.

Minato even commented how heavy the Chakra felt because Yin Kurama is inside him:

A point of contention would be: if that was the case, then why did Hiruzen sent Hashirama and Tobirama's spirits inside the Reaper instead of assimilating them inside himself like what Minato did with Kurama's Yin Chakra:

You must be registered for see images


It is because Hashirama and Tobirama were real souls and Kurama's Yin Chakra is just that: Chakra, energy which could be assimilated inside a person.

The same principle is applicable to Orochimaru's arms:

They are the arms of a real soul therefore Hiruzen could not assimilate it with his own soul, since no two same objects can occupy the same space at the same time.

Now, plot-wise, it only stands to reason that Minato's gift is Kurama's Yin Chakra since logically Minato would have sealed the whole of Kurama inside of Naruto when he was a baby, the only problem is he couldn't because it was too great for baby Naruto to handle:

So logically, since Naruto is now full-grown and is working together with Kurama:

You must be registered for see images


Then it only stands to reason that Minato would give the missing half of Kurama to Naruto to help him in his fight against Madara:

So logic-wise/plot-wise, Minato's gift to Naruto is Kurama's Yin Chakra.

This was a great analysis, perfectly explaining how Minato's Gift is The Kyuubi's chakra.=D

Logic dictates that Kishi split the 9 tails for a reason, there is no point to splitting it if he intended for Naruto to get the whole thing like that.

Besides that doesn't sound like a father son gift to me, hey kiddo, here is the rest of the thing I sealed inside you that made your life a nightmare.

Nah, I seriously doubt its the rest of the 9 tails, that doesn't sound like a gift that makes up all the years he wasn't there for Naruto.

Plus Naruto is still adapting to BM, plot wise it doesn't make sense for him to get such an upgrade so soon.

This is way too overcomplicated for a kid's manga

Way to beat a dead horse.... At any rate, here is my take that I made a couple of weeks back;


I realize this has been speculated on, and there are too many threads about this already. The vast majority believe the gift Minato has for his son is the rest of Kyuubi chakra. It seems like people here absolutely refuse to so much as consider any other possibility. Like they are flat out refusing to think any further than they already have. I'm not looking to change anybody's mind, or to tell anybody that they are wrong. I don't know that, and neither does anybody else on this forum. Keep that in mind when speculating. We are not Kishi moto.

Here's the problem I have with the "chakra gift theory"; We know that Madara and/or Obi to want the Kurama's chakra. That's the entire point of starting this war. Madara is exceptionally intelligent, and well informed. He knows that he will need all of the chakra, and will try his best to get it. So, Kurama's chairs showing up this way seems unlogical to me. I'm certain Naruto will get the chakra, but not this way. After everything is said and done, and the bad guys are dead, he'll have all of it. He doesn't need his dad to hand it to him on a silver platter.

The look we see on Minato's face when he realizes that he gets to fight by his son's side is one of pure joy, and excitement. For obvious reasons. The way his face lit up when learning that he has the chance to see his son shows how much pride he has for him. How strong his faith in him is. He never planned to die a few hours after his son's birth. He believed his life was truly starting. Wife, son, and title of Hokage. When Obito attacked, we saw how far the man was willing to go to protect what's his. As he is dying, he remarks on his remorse for burdening his infant son with the demon's chakra. He knew exactly how difficult life would be. If it wasn't for the sake of protecting his village, he never would have done what he did. He then stated his faith in his infant son. He knew that Naruto would overcome, and that he wouldn't give up on his dream. He has never doubted that for a second. Since he didn't want to put the half of the chakra that he did into his son, why would he now that to give him the rest? Yes, it is argued that it would be for a weapon, and more power. Minato has great faith in his fellow Kage. He doesn't doubt them, or their abilities. He should believe that all of them entering the fight is more than a simple power up.

I'm thinking that the gift is something tangible. A symbol and reminder of who Naruto is, and who his parents were. A way to validate and express his deep pride and faith. He never thought he'd get that opportunity, and he's absolutely thrilled that he does now. What could serve that purpose? Well, what is Minato known for? Being a hero, who gave his life up at a very young age to uphold the duty of Hokage. His trenchcoat has become a symbol, almost. No other Kage wore anything like that. It was his own thing. His style. I believe the gift is Naruto's own trenchcoat. He hoped that his son would follow in his footsteps, and had it made for the day he could pass off the baton of Hokage to his son. Again, symbolizing the strength of his faith. He died, and probably believed he wouldn't be able to do it. Now he has the chance, and he is absolutely thrilled. It would serve as a power up, in a sense. After realizing how proud his parents are, he will get the moral boost he needs to carry on. If he has any doubt at all that he will succeed, this gift would squash that, and reinvigorate his will.

Lastly, bringing the Kyuubi chakra straight to the the battlefield would be tantamount to handing it over to Madara, almost as a favor. Knowing that all of the Kage valued one thing above everything else, putting that in direct danger doesn't seem feesible. They would rather die, or even have their own loved ones die, than to hand over something to the enemy that would absolutely end the village. They aren't stupid people. Especially Hiruzen, Minato, and Hashirama. They must know how stupid it would be to wave it in front of Madara's face like that.

I thought that the Yin-Half gift was obvious.

Great proof though.

Now that sounds like a father son gift. Its nice to see that someone else thinks that Yin Chakra doesn't scream Father and Son bonding.

No, it's not Kurama's sentience that was sealed with Minato, it was simply his Yin Chakra Energy. There is no foxception involved of having two Kuramas.

Thanks, I really had no intention to make a thread about it because it's just too obvious, but a friend asked me to so I obliged. ;)

But Hiruzen sealed Orochimaru's hands, which is just a part of him, just like Minato did with Kurama's yin, a part of Kurama.

This is what I don't understand, I see no difference between Orochimaru's hands and Kurama's yin chakra.

They are the arms of a real soul therefore Hiruzen could not assimilate it with his own soul, since no two same objects can occupy the same space at the same time.

What do you exactly mean by that?

I think Minato's gift is simply going to be allowing Naruto to meet his father for once in his life. Physically,that is.
