A look into Minato's sage mode

[Orenji Uzumaki]

So its just a guess but, I think he is a perfect sage BUT his reserves r lacking .

I believe due to him being a prodigy...he was able to grasp the concept of feel of senjutsu and perfectly balance it with his own chakra ...but it meant nothing since his reserves arent on the level of jiraiya or naruto . Thats why minato said he doesnt really use it in battle ,.

A side note- I think the larger the reserves u have the quicker u can grasp and balance the senjutsu chakra , thats why BM Naruto stated "gathering natural energy is quicker now" and Hashi can inasta SM lol. Minato doesnt have such reserves so he takes forever to gather...leaving him much more vulnerable than even base naruto . And even when he finally balances it..he only has enough for like one senjutsu rasengan then..poof...nothing.

A plausible theory or maybe he just sucks at maintaining the form.

You can't become a perfect sage or even take in natural energy for that matter without having large chakra reserves.

naruto and hashirama have even greater chakra reserves so they can maintain it for longer periods, however perfect sage mode is the one who doesnt undergo physical transformation like a toad

no co-relation to the time, and btw he simply exited out of sage mode on his own as there was no point in keeping it up
