I see! That's good, i wouldn't have noticed that single hand seal. Thank you for providing that scan, I'll take that into consideration.
Nice to know =D

I see your point with the possible struggle, i won't completely deny that. But I'm also referring to Zetsu taking Obtio's body and Minato unable to intercept. The way peole describe his conflict in Ay, Minato had time to consciously toss a kunia with a bullet in face, yet couldn't use this movement to react to Zetsu. That's a bit questionable, which is why i always questioned whether he really tossed the kunia from Kish's perspective.
I'll give credit to BZ here, but like i've said in the thread, he can't be sensed anyway, so it's not like Minato would know especially since they were not even in battle situation, more like a conference between old teammates. The hole A-Minato thing is legit though otherwise how do you view it?

Not everyone is perfect. Minato admitted he failed. He failed. I read it from the manga.

I view it as the kunia shifting in mid air in the midst of Minato using, not him physically tossing it. The way it's portrayed in the scan, Minato was surprised by Ay's speed, basically caught off guard. Even if his sensing was activated, his reaction led me to believe he would have a difficult time dodging/reacting to such an attack phyically. Therefore, him havung both the mental and physical preparation of acknowledging Ay and physically tossing the kunia just doesn't seen logical IMO.

Even if he couldn't sense Zetsu, when considering the situation of this "toss" Minato should have been able to react to Zetsu regardless.

Get what I'm saying? In order for it to make sense for me, i conclude that Minato didn't toss the kunia, but had the mental preparation to counter Ay

Your right but at the same time Edo minato seems off to me and his behaviour personality and battle tactics dont seem to be there if I were to see alive and Edo version of minato together I would think he has a twin brother or something as he acts kinda stupid in Edo state and is not nearly as cool as alive minato and this is kishis fault not minato but its the truth and we still have not seen his supreme jutst. P.s I'm a minato fan and not a hater I just hate how he is not owning everybody on the battlefield right now

Thanks to Kishi he was forced to use his left hand to deal with BZ.

Still I can't see anyone pulling an attack that faster in that sittuation.

That's good, i wouldn't have noticed that :)

As a father he is failure, because he made his son jin.

Minato saved him from Obito and twice from Kurama (as he fight against Pain , and one Time with Kushina) and finally Naruto forgive him. So that's no argument anymore

He's one of my favorite characters on Naruto but I respect Itachi more as a hero. Itachi sacrificed his potential, life, and reputation for his village and his brother. I like the idea of selflessly being a true hero under the shadows.
