Keep in mind this is a miniscule advantage, but I consider it one nonetheless.

Minato doesn't look intimidating. This could catch opponents off guard.

For instance, look at Ay. You know that dude's gonna f*ck sh*t up.

But then you see Minato and your like... This couldn't possibly be a Kage level shinobi!

Just sayin'.

i actually agree... its been shown in the manga that if u underestimate your opponent that you get f*cked up hard... admittingly tho minato was known enough not to have this advantage since there was flee on sight orders... but if he met someone that was completely oblivious to his status and had no idea who he is... you wouldnt think he would be such a deadly ninja and so you would let your guard down

2 more examples:
Monkey D Luffy: Goofy, no brain baka who only talks about meat.
Goku: Carefree dude who is still a kid no matter what age he is.

Unfortunately his reputation precedes him. Hence the "flee on sight" command given to most shinobi if they run across him.

Still unfortunately, some 'wanna be shinobi heroes' like the fool in the kakashi gaiden, will think they can take him, since he doesnt look that dangerous.

Yeah great point! Minato being so calm and keepi g a low profile when fighting, will definitely keep the opponent think that Minato is weak or not powerful.

Yep that's for sure. He could make you think he is an ordinary shinobi if not for the 'flee on sight' order

Not looking at your opponents eyes is the counter to tsukoyomi or any other visual genjutsu!

I hope your not going to neg rep me for this again iOblivioni :whip:

So he was looking at Obito? Why didn't Obito use a genjutsu then? He could have done it. DOES HE? no. Because then that'd reveal he was an Uchiha. No where in the Manga does Minato know that Obito/Tobi is an Uchiha, the thought he was Madara, but quickly dismissed that thought. So during the entire fight, Minato did not know he was fighting an Uchiha. There are plenty of ways to bring a tailed beast under a genjutsu.

Like that iwagakure nin. If minato looked intimidating he wpuld have run instantly instead of sitting around it was too late.

Actually, he didnt use genjutsu because he was controlling kurama via sharingan already

He was controlling the 9 Tails with genjustu.
