How can he surpass someone he will never fight in his life? He will never be faster (kishi himself stated) and Sasuke already beat Naruto lol.
When did Kishi ever say that?

Just curious, I agree with that point seeing as Minato's speed is instantaneous. And Sasuke beat a young Naruto who wasn't going for the kill, don't compare the two.


Minato can't beat Naruto at this point and has been surpassed in all ways except for intelligence and speed (a useless advantage by the way).

I think all of these moments everyone's mentioned are all times in which Naruto could've surpassed Minato. But, I'd like to think it began with Rasen-Shuriken. When he added wind to Rasengan, he created a new ultimate technique, something that Minato didn't get a chance to do.

We all know that Naruto has surpassed Minato, it has been stated by many characters, many times.




The question is... when?


Fukasaku thought it was when he gained Sennin Mode:

Yondaime Raikage Ay believed he was the true savior, putting him above Minato's level seeing as he believed Minato failed:

You must be registered for see images



And its clear that Bijuu Mode Naruto has surpassed Minato.


When did he surpass Minato?



I believe KCM Naruto had surpassed Minato for he gained speed on a comparable level to Minato's instantaneous FTG speed. He had also been proclaimed as the savior of the Shinobi world right about then, something Minato was said to be but died.
Good questions! I would have to say when Fukasaku first said it. When 'A' says it, it's more of a reiteration of Kishimoto to his readers, I suppose. That, and everyone has their own opinions concerning the abilities of ninja.

He owned a jouunin/anbu and another anbu and a chuunin and one gennin and surpressed the fox.
Kishi made them to compare.
Kishi stated that Minato is the fastest in Naruto.

Useless advantage? If you can move faster than a person can think and have a killing tool, you wouldn't even need power what does Naruto have of his own, not the fox (btw minato has the fox also :3) but he doesn't need it.

Sage mode is when Naruto surpassed Minato imo.
But if you think about it he always needs something to do what he does now, WSRS = SM & fox, shadow clone + rasengan = stolen scroll, speed = fox, reaction time= fox. Naruto is useless from my point of view idc if you say he was born with it or w/e else excuse you have, its not his power. Minato needed only he smartness and a cool kunai and he > the entire ninja alliance.

I think Fukasaku was comparing their level in Sage Mode(yes i believe Minato had Sage Mode). Either that or a misconception/translation. It would make no sense that Kishi said he surpassed him overall at that moment if even until now he still compares Naruto to Minato. When Naruto was said to be equal or surpass Kakashi, Kishi didn't compare Naruto to Kakashi anymore, but since then, he still continues to compare Naruto to his father, which would make no sense if he really surpassed him at that moment. In that same arc, Minato was even said that there is a ninja more of a threat than Pain(the one Naruto was fighting), and he is the one who fought and bested that man. It was clearly implied Minato was still above him, but Naruto would have to work hard and surpass him

Yamato for example said KM wasn't on Minato's level. Raikage after observing KM Naruto said he thought no one could surpass Minato, even regretting why he wasn't there(so he thought Minato was stronger than Naruto). Kakashi again compared Naruto to Minato when he throwed away the TBB, and again recently, Kyubi again compared Naruto to Minato when he said he surpassed him in chakra control, and even now, Minato still thinks about giving a new power to Naruto as if Naruto still has things to learn

Can you people really say something like this? Its like stealing a magic apple getting speed like dash to win the race and people saw you do it and they say "yeah he's the fastest ever" not explaining the real reason why he is fast.
FTG isn't even Minato's original technique, it was the Second's, Naruto isn't faster overall because you cant outspeed teleportation but in terms of foot speed, which is much more versatile, he is definitely faster

Yes, this because this a manga full of magical ninjas who somehow receive magical gifts that make their punches split the earth into two.
