25-28...

Hum thanks for the link man, it seems really interesting. Seems you right. So Minato was indeed 22, wow so young o_O
That site even says "there is no official comprehensive timeline". I mean, did Jiraiya really find Myobouku Mountain 44 years before the start of the series, meaning he was 7 years old?

Well databook says Jiraya became genin at 6 and it's at that age that Hiruzen became his master and around that age that he found Myoboukou, so it's possible or legit

So you're saying Jiraiya started training with the toads at age seven...

If he died at age 22, he would be 38 now. Meaning he was only 8 years older than Kakashi. Which just isn't true...

He must have been 25-28; the manga implies that he was younger than 30 when he became Hokage, but would you take that as far to say that he was barely into his 20s?

Minato was as Jiraiya said once in a lifetime prodigy so he couldve started training with the toads at 7

and if you look at Team Minato you can tell Minato was quite young himself when he lead Kakashi and co.

Kakashi Obito and Rin were 13 years old during the battle of Kannabi bridge which would make Minato 21 when he became a hero of the war, which made Hiruzen choose him as his successor, Minato's reign as Hokage was one year at best which would mark the time of his death at 22 years old when Obito attacked

Kakashi was 13 during the war so minoto should be 21.
Obito came out of the cave approximately less than a year and during that time minoto was most likely having *** with kushina.

9 months later he probably became 22 in between the 9 month gap.

Jiraya said Minato was a once in life time genius, so it won't really surprise me if it was the case. The fact is that based on that link, Jiraya became Minato's master 24years before the start of the series, which means that Jiraya himself was 26 since he was 50 at the start of the series. Don
t you think it's the legit age a jounin has when he takes his students? Kakashi was also around that age when he took the lead of team7

@Derp we see nothing xd

There is no specific age to become a leader of any team. Based on that link, Jiraiya would be seven when he was training with the toads. I have a question, is that link official?

I still believe Minato was 25-28 when he died...

The site is not official, but it shows some accurate points. It's about that i'm talking here. I believe Shikaku was from Minato's generation. They seemed to know each other pretty well and he was 25 during the kyubi attack, so again it's not that far-fetched to think Minato was younger

Yeah, I read on Narutopedia that it said that Minato became Hokage shortly before he became 30 years old... So I think he died when he was 32 years old.

A council member said that he took the post of Hokage when he was younger than kakashi who is 30, so it can't be true
