I was reading the issue "The Birth of Naruto" a few days ago and got to wondering....How come Kabuto didn't summon either Minato or Kushina or both? Did Sarutobi seal Minato with those shuriken he threw at his coffin when Orochimaru summoned him? if not, why didn't he send those two after Naruto? That would have really made a difficult fight for him and it would be epic to see if the child has surpassed both mother and father. Your thoughts?

The Fourth sealed himself within the Death God, hence why Orochimaru couldn't revive him back in Pt. 1.
As for Kushina, I presume her body was hidden away to prevent anyone from obtaining her DNA to revive her?

You need their semen to be able to reanimate a dead person, actual quote from the manga.

Okay i re-read chapter 520, That explains Minato. i wonder what happened to Kushina's body?

EDIT: In doing so I found a plot hole. Chapter 117 & 118. the 3rd Hokage said he stopped the 4th from being revived, and in chapter 520 Kabuto said it failed because of Minato soul being inside the belly of the Reaper Death Seal he used to stop the 9 tails....Which leaves another question? If he used RDS on Kurama...Why is Kurama still around? Did he just just seal the Yin portion of his soul?

Minato sealed himself using the Reaper Death Seal, therefore his soul isn't in the pure realm, therefore he isn't able to be summoned. Also, I'm pretty sure (could be wrong, not bothered re-reading manga, so I might make myself look like a fool) that Minato worked Kushina's chakra into the seal using the RDS, so her soul isn't summonable either.

Obvosly Kushina wasn't that imporant to revive, or her body was sealed up with minatos. Minato can't be revived anyways, becuase of the reaper death seal. Remember the fight of orochimaru vs the 3rd? He tryed to summon minato, but din't know at the time that he needed his soul, becuase of the reaper death seal, he would have failed both ways. Kabato already explained this in the manga dude, don't you read?

Yeah I read it but I got confused as Orochimaru DID summon him and the 3rd claimed he stopped the summoning of his body so I didn't think that rule applied until I re-read 520 in which Kabuto said he couldn't be summoned beause of the RDS, so there's a plot hole there that tripped me up abit. :)

EDIT: And back off! I forgot! people are entitled to forget a thing or two every now and then. I'm not a font of unforgettable knowledge in all things Naruto! Sheesh!

Minato sacrificed his soul to the reaper. The anime labeled the casket as the Fourth, but on the manga, it was probably going to be Madara, since Kabuto has him now.
