See the father son relationship didn't need to be developed any further imo. Sometimes less is more. Minato is one of my favorite characters lol.

I believe it was in character and proper narration given that Minato's was predominately the reason why Naruto was tasked at handling such a burden which caused him to suffer over a decade's worth of condemnation. Naruto even conveying this to Minato made it nearly impossible for Kishimoto to simply skimp this opportunity without Naruto and Minato's relationship feeling underdeveloped and quite frankly, awkward.

The way Kishimoto did it worked simply because it was used as a way to build up towards Minato and Naruto fighting like father and son and Minato's sentiment of Naruto inspiring him to accomplish everything as was evoked when he was around Kushina just exemplified how meaningful and incredible that moment was. It would've simply been a wasted opportunity to not elucidate the feelings that were elicited from Minato by watching how Minato's hopes and aspirations for Naruto finally came to fruition. Naruto was finally capable of battling against the imminent danger (Obito) that no one could face as Minato had hoped even that seemed like a fairy tale to the rest of the Shinobi World and simply failing to capitalize on that moment wouldn't been bad IMO.

Didn't ruin his character for me. One thing Kishi always does is humanize the legends. He always shows that though they are legendary heroes, they're imperfect and have their quirks like the rest of us. I

No, he only toked L's from a juubi jin witch is extremely justified.

But my problem with him was the only scene were he pulled a mastered sage mode and was saying that it was still incomplete or something.
