gai is my favorite character but i gotta say minato wins 10 out of 10 times
Minato's reaction speed isnt in question here,
Smh @ these post. The focus isn't foot speed, but rather react time. Minato had slight difficulty reacting to Tobi's straightforward offenses. Tobi himself was able to react to Minato's Lv1 ftg tactics.
though we've seen him almost get wrapped to Kamui!!
Why are you comparing Ay's foot speed to Kamui?!?
Foot Speed =/ ftg or kamui. Do you understand that?
Also, its already been shown MinatoYou must be registered for see linksYou must be registered for see linksThe only reason Minato was able to avoid this was because his Hiraishin is instantaneous. This was straightforward attacks!
"FTG level 2 is proven to be faster" What?! ftg isnt faster,
Minato simply used two kunia, one as a decoy and another used to S/T to to attack Tobi when he materialized to wrap Minato. This was a means to avoiding being wrapped, there is NO speed difference. That was simply Tobi's inexperience at that time, he was a child/teen, nothing in comparison to rinnesgan Tobi experience.
Similarly, Tobi goes into wrap Gai hereYou must be registered for see linksas he did against Minato. Gai not having S/T couldnt teleport of of the situation, but instead uses his reaction speed to prevent that from happening.
Again like against Minato, in place of the chain, Tobi tried to counteract but Gai again reacted w/o lookingYou must be registered for see links
The fact means, Kamui is superior because it's harder to avoid. With ftg one can easily counter the mechanics behind it, kunia/tags by not getting touched.
Minato's basic taijutsu fodder in comparison to Gai, his ftg is fodder compared to Kamui (Minato stated that himself) .
You said the focus of this fight was reaction time:
I was detailing why Minato's reaction time is superior to Gai's, which is indisputable.
Obito attempted to warp him when he first came into contact with him. Gai on the other hand was fighting with knowledge of the ability. Gai couldn't have replicated Minato's feat.
I'm comparing A's foot speed to Gai's. If Minato can handle A, he can handle Gai. A is pretty much an enhanced version of Gai.
Yes. Don't know why you're stating the obvious though.
Apologies, but I don't see what point you are trying to make with those scans.

"The Fourth Hokage wins the battle of speed."
This is untrue. Minato was able to strike Obito before Obito could put up his Kamui defense. This proves that he was faster than Obito.
You do realize that Gai had full knowledge of Kamui, while Minato had never once faced it, right? Two completely different situations.
Impressive feat, but it's a far cry from reacting to Kamui.
Kamui is more versatile yes, but I've already admitted to this. Anyway, you're ignoring Minato's base speed which is superior speed to anything Gai has shown by far. Minato has better reactions than Gai, he is faster than Gai, he is smarter than Gai. Gai has nothing on Minato.
Yes, this is about Gai's reaction speed, seeing as Minato is the one with S/T ability and who people think will have ability to blitz. Therefore, I've defended Gai's reaction speed ability.
You're speaking of knowledge as if the changes one reaction speed! Minato witnessed his ability and still almost got caught a second time, so I fail to see you point. Btw Gai has knowledge of Minato's abilities.
The points with those scans demonstrate how 1) Minato's S/T come into play and 2) How Gai was able react to similar situations. In Minato's situations illustrated more difficulty in that altercation.
S/T has no speed increase itself, please explain to me how it does? Minato re-positioned himself to the kunia he teleported to. simple!

Gai was aware of the basic mechanics of Kamui. That was his first time actually fighting against Kamui. Please dont try to use that as an excuse, because its not. As stated, this does NOT determine ones reaction speed generally.
What is it if its not reacting? Please enlighten me
Minato's base...what about it? Are you implying that it'll blitz? Something we've need really seen used in battle. Mind you we've been discussing base Gai lol.
So wait, do you honestly think Gai would have been fast enough to fight MS Obito? Because if you think Gai can beat Minato, that implies Gai has enough speed to beat MS Obito.
Also still waiting on those scans that show Gai is anywhere close to Minato's speed.

Guy shits on Minato in terms of natural, running speed.
Facts > Statements.
FTG beat Kamui so that's irrelevant.
Minato's taijutsu is irrelevant as getting touched means Gai is dead.
Says who?
Gai never blitzed anyone. At least Minato was praised by Obito and Tobirama for his SHUNSHIN speed.
He's the fastest in the manga as far as unbuffed ( no BM, Gates, Raiton Shroud ) speed goes.
Gai has demonstrated the ability prevent yourself from getting warped, and a method to actually defeat Kamui. However, he hasn't demonstrated a method to defeat Obito in the process, which is what Minato did in the end of their fight. Kamui is S/T
You can't necessarily compare the two. Depends on what you define "speed" as.

In terms of better reactions between Guy and Minato I think the obvious would be Minato? He has better reaction time feats than Guy as the manga displayed.
You mean when he had intel on kamui and was being backed up by Kakashi and Naruto?
lol wut?
Log off, you clearly know nothing about Naruto. Minato sh*ts in Gai's hands then makes him eat it. In terms of "overall running" speed, of course
Also there's only one definition of speed in this case, moron.
Yes, his shunshin speed was praised, but this does not speak very much for his base speed.
I was referring to gated Guy, who operates without shunshin and is leaps and bounds faster than him as far as physical speed is concerned.
So acrimonious.
If there was a scenario in which Minato did not utilize Hiraishin or Shunshin, then Gated Guy would shit in his mouth. If you think otherwise, your are completely deluded and possibly retarded.
