sage mode requires training, no matter how much juugo dna you pump in yourself

minato's life was not shown on panel, so he can be assumed to have undergone training with jiraiya at some point in his life, but we have been following sasuke's life and uptill the kabuto fight he didnt even know of ryuchido's existence where one can recieve sage mode training

You're using curved logic.

You say Sasuke never trained, so it would be surprising.
But Minato never trained, yet you say 'he should at least be able to take in natural energy'.

Why is it okay for one person to not show training, but just 'be able to do it', and the other person not?

This, that's kind of a biased way of thinking you got going on Yellowfang

Minato did trained at Mt. Myoboku... Obviously, doesn't mean that he became a sage but at least he got some knowledge about it...
While Sasuke was just using senjutsu indirectly w/o knowing about it...

I won't be surprised at this stage because stage is completely set for Sasuke to get SM anytime...

Not at all, don't forget that Sasuke was well accustomed to using his own curse mark, a down-graded form of senjutsu. That and the fact that Orochimaru himself wanted to learn senjutsu but didn't have the body for it. Yet he seeked out to get Sasuke's body, did he just plan on giving up on SM after getting Sasuke's body? I highly doubt it, I think Oro felt he could have obtained SM in Sasuke's body.

I like this answer

Nothing should surprise you again in this manga. I mean nothing.

I'm trying to stand this point but looks like you got better words for it than me...

I wouldn't. I'd probably be more surprise if a new character is revealed

If he uses SM during the fight with Madara I'm calling bullshit because then he would not have had to rely on Jugo's senjutsu fighting Obito. If he learns it anytime after the war nah I wouldn't be surprised at all

Don't count it out.

Madara got SM straight after being revived, in the middle of the battlefield.

I don't think the OP meant Sasuke getting SM now, I think he meant in the future. Obviously he wouldn't pull it out now since he used Juugo for it earlier and just learned about but in the future, it's a possibility that isn't far fetched at all. That doesn't mean he'll get SM or have anything to do with it but if he obtained it in the future, it wouldn't be a surprise.

Madara only got Hashi's healing abilities and didn't show any sign of Senjutsu power/no actual tech's, so it's not even valid to call it SM (he didn't master it/just stored it in his Hashi implants).

acquiring Senjutsu chakra/mastering it's power and using it's full power/capabilities in the middle of a fight would be beyond ridiculous U_U

not saying that it won't happen (this arc is ridiculous after all), just saying that it's crazy/ridiculous.

Well that's because he stole it. We knew it was going to happen as well and it wasn't really an asspull because like 10 chapters before it happened Madara blatantly said "I'm taking your senin powers". It wouldn't be right for Sasuke because he can't absorb chakra as far as we know.

"Asspull" doesn't exist, it's just an excuse for those who cannot comprehend certain occurrences, or simply, just don't like said occurrence.

Ignorance is so repulsive.

So an author ignoring their own rules and disregarding consistency in their story is okay, and anyone who disagrees is ignorant or can't comprehend an occurence? "asspull" is just a term to describe an inconsistency, and they actually do exist. In many series actually.
