Minato's reaction to Jiraiya's death.

[Belie]

Minato doesn't know Jiraiya is dead, or at least I think.

It hasn't really been hinted that he does know Jiraiya has died, but since he hasn't seen him in the battlefield, who knows? I guess fighting the Juubi doesn't leave one time to wonder how their sensei is doing.

How do you think he'll react when he learns Jiraiya's dead? :nuts:

 

[Mr Hiru]

The same deception he felt when he recognized Obito as the Masked Man.

Obito influenced Nagato to follow his way after all... and Nagato's Pain was Jirayia's death cause.

In the end, all of this is Madara's doing.

I think he might have known J-Man was dead when Naruto fought Pain.

 

[Mr Hiru]

I think he might have known J-Man was dead when Naruto fought Pain.

That was Minato's remaining chakra, that dissipated without a body to return to.

The current Minato doesn't know anything about Jirayia's death.

 

[Edward]

i dont think he knows yet.. hopefully he finds out.

 

[NowsTheTime]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure minato was watching naruto from the inside

 

[thunderthehybrid]

minato would be mad but he would acknowledge that jiraiya died an honorable death and that Naruto learned sage mode from jiraiya's toad friends

Minato knows that Jiraya is dead. Unfortunately

Tell me... how could that "chakra" projection of Minato return to a dead body?

Minato knows. I think some of you are getting confused with a couple of chapters before the one above where Naruto realizes Kakashi is dead from his SM Training.

If those who said he still doesn't know because of the whole time difference + not having a body, etc... Think of it like this. In this latest chapter we see Minato states how once his FTG mark is on someone, it is on there forever. I would technically be hypothesizing but at the same time I don't think I am going on a limb when I say I'm sure those closest to him were marked (just in case the Shuriken wasn't there, etc...) since we know Minato was a very intelligent ninja and it would be stupid for him not to do this.

I'm more curious as to how he was able to travel to Obito since he destroyed the same place he marked during their fight (or at least I would assume) and since Obito would just regenerate using Zetsu...which technically is Hashi's DNA... how was Minato able to teleport to him? I would say him putting the seal on those important to him, but that's 1 - Food for thought and 2 - In case I am wrong and he didn't destroy the place he marked Obito.

As you see in the page I gave, we know Minato's reaction to J-Man's death...though I do think that if Minato had more time he would have told Naruto how important J-Man really was to the both of them, etc... I think IF ANYTHING Minato is happy he doesn't have to fight his sensei, Naruto's Godfather, mentor, etc...

EDIT: Also think about this - Minato, from what we know, was only able to view the real-world through Naruto, so it would make sense he knows about J-Man dying. The thing that bothers me after thinking about it is he doesn't bring up Kakashi's death since the 4 of them were so interconnected it's crazy. So, that being said, I would say J-Man's death definitely would have a major impact on Minato if he were to find out right now.

I imagine that Minato will feel disheartened to learn that Jiraiya was killed by one of his 'fellow students', Nagato.
Minato exhibits that he is already awestruck by the fact that Obito is still alive. He hasn't displayed it yet, but Minato will likely express disappointment in Obito in due time.
All of this combined will take a toll on Minato soon, but I predict that finding out about his sensei probably isn't going to have nearly as much of an impact on him as his student, Obito, currently being one of the main antagonists.

Stop with this chakra bullshit. Obviously it was Minato who talked with Naruto back there, you can't talk with chakra, smart-ass.

The dialogue confirming that Jiraiya's death is known to Minato has not been revealed yet. We lack evidence supporting that Minato knows. Similarly, we also lack evidence which denotes that he doesn't know. We, as the manga readers, have yet to see Minato's reaction. Let it be and stay on topic.

What do you think his reaction would be if he did (or if he already has) find/found out about J-man's death?

Haven't you all notice a somewhat recurring theme in master-apprentice relationship between Hiruzen-Jiariya-Minato and Orchimaru-Nagato-Obito? Each of them succeeded killing their master (indirectly or directly). I hope this is not the case for Kakashi and Sasuke.

I don't see what point you're trying to make or how it is relevant to the original post. There is validity in your observation, so I'm interested as to see what you're trying to demonstrate, if anything at all.

Ah, then Minato's real body was inside Naruto's consciousness, as Kushina's body as well? So you're the real genius here /sarcasm

By there way, you can project your body and voice using chakra, these skills can be Kage Bunshins, Mizu Bunshins, Iwa Bunshins (these are Yin based jutsus) and what Minato did was just another variation through the use of Fuuinjutsu.

I think you should read about the Kyuubi attack and which method use Minato so Naruto could met him and his mother.

PS: I won't tell you how the Yin/Yang jutsus work, it would be a "pain" in the "ass" to explain this to someone as "smart" as you.

That was Minato's remaining chakra, that dissipated without a body to return to.

The current Minato doesn't know anything about Jirayia's death.

Even so, that chakra was still Minato, it wasn't like a seperate being, a seperate form of Minato, it was the actual Minato. Chakra just doesn't disappear into nothingness, it goes to the Pure realm or whatever, or in this case, back to the rest of Minato's chakra that is in the reaper death seal. Even if it didn't go into the RDS, and it just floated around after, it would have gone back to him when Minato was Edo'd, kind of like how Naruto's kage bunshins when they disappear give Naruto all their knowledge.

If Minato didn't remember anything of meeting Naruto during the Pain arc, why would Minato say that Naruto finally did it, it meaning that he took control of the Kyuubi, when he was first Edo'd? If all he remembered was Naruto as a baby, right before he sealed the Kyuubi, why would he say that Naruto finally did it? That wouldn't make any sense really. It only makes sense when Minato knew that Naruto lost control and almost went full 9 tails until Minato saved him, because Minato knew he couldn't control the Kyuubi then since he had to save him. If he just remembered him as a baby, Minato wouldn't know anything about Naruto at all, and if he didn't know anything at all, him saying he finally did it wouldn't make any sense at all.

 

[GrayParadise]

He probably won't feel anything too extreme, since he'll be notified Naruto defeated the person who killed him.

a) Quite right. If chakra doesn't get to reach its original owner, it returns to the nature that surrounds it.
b) In the case of Naruto, the knowledge returns to the original owner, that is alive and exist as a live being.
c) Minato sealed the Kyuubi inside Naruto because he knew he would master this power one day. This was stated in Pain Arc. If you read carefully, it's implied that Minato knew Naruto would master this power 16 years ago, this was the reason to seal Kurama inside Naruto from the start. It's natural to assume that Naruto finally did it, Naruto is "apparently" is a grown up adolecent.
d) If Minato really remembered Jirayia's death, he would remember that Naruto used Fuuton - Rasen Shuuriken against Pain... but violà, he got surprised when he used it against the Mini-Juubis. Does this tells you something?

Alright "smart-ass" then why didn't you cover the fact that all data a Kagebunshin receives is transmitted to the original user when the jutsu is undone? Oh, it must have been a "pain" in the "ass"
The same thing happened to Minato. The data from the chakra left in Naruto (or Kagebunshin) was transmitted to his original brain when the chakra has vanished.

Use something called "logic" before trying to argue with me.
