Would you tell me this comes down to an intelligence factor?
Exactly. Just take a look
- Base Minato was capable to analyse and notice the weakness of a complexe jutsu like Chidori the first time he saw it in action
- Base Minato saw through Bee 16years before A, noticing the real reason behind his strength
- Base Minato was capable to analyse and notice the weakness of a complexe jutsu like Kamui's intangibility, and take advantage of this the instant he saw this
His insight has been portrayed to be god-like. Yet for some reason, KCM Minato is acting like an idiot, not even noticing the simplest things like Gamakichi's attack not erased by Obito's jutsu to start to question himself when so far, he has show one of the best if not the best insight in the entire manga? Something that even his dumb son was capable to notice? No man, i know Kishi sometimes wants to dowgrade characters just to leave opportunities for some others to shine, and maybe he just wanted to do that to create the relationship "like father, like son" that Tobirama said, but i don't like his methods because this is clearly not the Minato i know who is fighting currently.
What's funny is that he now create the "like father like son" thing when he said before plenty of times that Naruto is more like Kushina than his dad. Before we even met Minato, Tsunade said Naruto is totally different from his father in terms of look, speech and intelligence. Minato was always shown to think before acting, yet he acts before thinking.
Only because Kishi wants to suddenly come up with a relation between the 2? That's poor and bad writing for me here if you ask me. Not even as if Kishi has always been coherant in his manga anyway when you look at the amount of inconsistencies in his manga
I'm not even talking about Minato's capacities here, even his way of fighting and insight is totally different. He is simply too reckless. I'm not watching Minato fighting currently. This is just a double or fake for me
