Potential reason why the "fastest" ninja weren't the strongest?

Not really lol. You can be quite slow, and have superior reflexes to someone who is fast. Reflexes are about reaction time.

Also Reflex without speed isn't useless, just in the scenario you suggested.

It is. A speedstar can easily escape nuke blast, but a guy with only good reflex will die.
99% of speedstar have outstanding reflex by default anyway

You cant compared minato to juubi jin. Because they have many ability to put down minato like precise sensing, reflect and strong attack plus they also a speedster in their own right.

I dont think hashirama and ems madara having a reflex like juubi jin and also precise sensing ability. Hashi maybe had a good sensing due to SM.

Yes speed alone mybe not enough if you dont having strong attack, but if you having both, speedster can become stronger than someone that relied only on strenght like hashi. Look at juubi jin, goku or any db char, superman, they have both quality

And yes ftg users, infront of stronger opponent like juubi jin is nothing because of flaw at ftg application like unable to maintain a speed for attacking movement. But if someone having a Flash like power wheres their speed is foot movement rather than dimensional shot cut, I said bye-bye Hashi or juubi jin and plus with speed force.

Minato is not a true speedstar

He has no running speed/flight speed feats

He relies exclusively on teleportation

His arms and legs don't move as fast as as a juubi jin, so his surprise attacks are useless

Because Minato doesn't have running/flight speed, his attacks don't have much momentum

Minato doesn't have better reaction speed than any other SM or MS user


The likes of Minato can't be compared to true speedstar like flash...

That's not true man.

A Running Back is built for Speed to break through gaps.

A Linebacker is built for Reflexes/Instinct to secure tackles.

Fast NV users are the RB.

Reflex-based users are the LB.

Fast people don't always have outstanding reflex by default, that's just not true. Speed doesn't correlate to Reflex. Speed is just Speed.

Reflex, and Speed are two different categories all together.

I know, but most fast characters have excellent reflex. In Bleach, the faster character also has better reflex. Same in One Piece (with the exception of Logias). Naruto doesn't have true speedstar except for Juubi Jin and Naruto himself, 4th raikage is a joke compared to faster characters in Bleach and One Piece

Yes, I think of that also, minato is not a speedster level but avoider level, dont get me wrong. What I mean is speedster level is avoiding attack just using your foot speed only not avoiding by using dimensional help

The example of speddster level is Flash and most of DB chars.

Because of that in one thread I said FTG is not or cant being put in the same category as powerful technique in NV

Except for S06P chakra users, there are no true fast characters in NV. Minato is nowhere near speedster, if he was Madara wouldn't have beat the shit out of him

Even DB Goku is faster than Minato in foot speed and striking speed

Yes without FTG, he will get bit by Ay and maybe Bee long time ago.

dont get me wrong again minato fans, if minato trully foot speed level, he dont need FTG to avoided any Ay attack but kishi drawing that he is using all FTG movement, same as in teen obito situation.

istill think Mminato has hte fastest foot speed of any shinobi(except juubi jins). why else must Ay be so jealous of minato? why cant Ay challenge minato to a battle where he cant use the flash method?

all these are irrelevant when it comes to naruto manga as a plot but with Bee sweating upon hearing minato's name i dont think that minato is just FTG. am not a Minato fan but Kishi never explained about speed. in the Manga 4th was always referred to as a speedster even when teleportation was cnsidered different from running. Minato was always known as the fastest runner even by Ay. Minato has the fastest reflexes of any pure Kage ninja(equal to or exceeding Tobirama).

If Minato is not a speedster(which has never been shown as such) hten Kishi si trolling Minato.

The way Minato uses FTG to win against other characters is only possible in Naruto. If Minato used his teleportation so recklessly in OP or Bleachverse he wouldn't last very long against senior captains or admiral level characters who are expert in shunpo/soru

Minato is not a speedster, Ay being scared of Minato is a plot tool only possible in Naruto. Characters like Minato who solely rely on teleportation would get lolstomped outside NV because of inferior body speed

Madara already humiliated Minato even with Minato's teleportation, Minato is overrated as hell. And trues speedsters would annihilate Hashirama. However, Minato is not a speedster, just another FTG spammer

this is what im eant by Kishi trolling Minato what might save Minato is only his regflexes but dont know how much.

Minato was lawas suited to be a speedster. the person much hyped even by the fastest raikage was just a teleporter! kishi is trolling minato!

Indeed he is. Here's an example of speedster, which Minato isn't

You can't seriously be using Sage Mode Ten Tails Jinchuuriki Rinnegan Madara vs Sage Minato as the basis of your argument , honestly, it's like most people on nb are on crack. How is that even a fair comparison?

Edo Madara humiliated Ay who is a true speedstar, so please come up with a better argument than that. Juubi Jins are god tier. Plus there are enough shunshin feats from minato to know that his base foot speed was the best.

they afraid of minato only because he is yellow flash aka FTG users, all shinobi will be afraid of him knew he will all using FTG not a foot speed.

Tell me if minato is not having FTG, just a foot speed, do you still afraid of him. And I dont think minato foot speed is as fast as instant but still fast.

other point is they dont hane any idea if minato just using his foot or teleport, sure they alfraid

I see lots of people saying Minato is the fastest character in Naruto, so how come he can't beat Hashirama, as speed and reflex > everything else? It's because Minato is not the fastest character. If he was he would've beaten everybody

4th Raikage is a speedster alright, nothing too impressive. Gear 2 luffy from Enies lobby is faster than 4th raikage. Minato has very few shunshin feats in battle which put him at speedster level. Is there any video which shows how fast Minato is in battle using shunshin only? I don't remember tbh

We dont having any clear identification of his true foot speed, but maybe when he saving obito from kakashi, but still everyone there not talking about his speed like "wow! His foot speed is very fast, he arrive at obito before sasuke" or "Naruto said: wow father you are very fast" . But we dont getting that quote, and I assume maybe he is using FTG or plot device.

I dont know
