"We, as a family are…
ninjas!!”
Cutting through the darkness of the ninja world“The Yellow Flash” that awesome prestige even time and space seem to stand still!!
”!!?” (Volume 53, Chapter 503)
Displaying astonishing skillfulness with “Hiraishin no jutsu”!!
Overwhelming the Masked Man that is the mastermind behind the Kyuubi Incident!!
A handsome man shining with natural-borne talent, like a thunderbolt (purple lightning, sharp light, swordflash), time and space itself seem to stand still—.
Minato handles to perfection the “Hiraishin no jutsu” space-time ninjutsu that was invented by Nidaime Hokage Senju Tobirama, and learnt from Master Jiraiya the pride of being a ninja.
His achievements began 27 years ago with the “Jinchuuriki kidnapping prevention” in Kirigakure; during the 3rd Great Ninja War, he led inferior Konoha camps to victory for times too numerous to mention.
Praised among all ninja as the greatest in god-like speed, the honour of that valour fascinates even the elites of other villages
"I’ll go first and create an opening!" (Volume 67, Chapter 639)
Using “Shiki Fuujin”, his own chakra had been sealed together with the Kyuubi’s half body in reconcilliation (compromise).
Gaining the impressive “Kyuubi Chakra Mode”!!
"That’s some remarkable bravery… it’s like you’re not even the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, but a true ninja… who possesses something powerful." (Volume 57, Chapter 542, Binktopia’s translation)
Going beyond the village border, giving praise and recognition to the bravery (valour) of others.
Such is the composure (calmness, allowance) of a truly powerful person.

Profile
Ninja Registration Number 006510
Birthday: January 25th (age of death: 24 years old; Aquarius)
Height: 179.2 cm; Weight: 66.1 kg; Blood type: B
Personality: Tolerant/generous/understanding, mild/gentle
Favourite:
Loves stories; exclusively away from missions, he becomes a bookworm.
His favourite book is Jiraiya’s work “Tales of a Gutsy Ninja” (“Do-Konjou Ninden”).
p. 174
(Note: written in present tense as if reliving the past perhaps, and I am translating accordingly)
Sealed inside his treasured child is the resolve of a shinobi and deeply profound love.
[Death Anniversary]
On the 10th of October exactly 17 years ago from present day, a sudden tragedy had befallen Konoha —.
Due to the Masked Man’s scheme, in order to seal again the Kyuubi that had emerged from Kushina’s body, Minato makes his his own life as the intermediary (medium), and invokes (activates) the kinjutsu “Shiki Fuuin”.
That is the duty that must be fulfilled to protect Konoha.
As the mission of the Yondaime Hokage.
"Believe in this child! After all, he is our son!!" (Volume 53, Chapter 503)
Putting the jutsu-caster to certain death, the “Shiki Fuujin”.
Minato sacrifices his own life (body) to save Konoha.
"… Listen… to your motor-mouth mother…" (Volume 53, Chapter 504, Binktopia’s translation)
Protecting his own child’s life from the Kyuubi’s evil claw to the end, Minato passes on (dies).
[Seal]
Minato decides to seal half of the Kyuubi’s chakra into his own child, Naruto.
Even as his life’s flame could burn out at any moment, Minato seals into Naruto’s body, something along with the Kyuubi’s chakra, (and) his breath dies (stops, ceases).
That something is the love of a father and mother like no other.
p. 175
On the war zone of his afterlife comes a karmic chance encounter
The high-soar (soaring spirits) of his heir unleashes the blazing light of his reposed soul!!
(composed/calmed/rested soul)
"Isn’t that right… Obito"(Volume 66, Chapter 637)
Relying on the Marking that never disappears, he slashes his own student for the first time with a single kunai strike.
[As a master]
The mastermind behind the fourth great ninja war is the same Masked Man from the Kyuubi incident.
Minato’s makes use of his “Hiraishin” Marking that he had previously imprinted to teleport (fly, jump).
However, the one who was there was his own former student, Uchiha Obito….
[All thoughts (feelings, hopes)]
His beloved own student had completely changed appearance; it was his own fault that he did not realise the true face underneath the mask on that day.
Cheering up Minato from his stupor (daze) is the one who had become a first-class shinobi and attained maturity — his own son, Naruto.
Father and son join fists in tandem (together), opposing the ninja world’s menace.
"What you want to say is the same as my nagging mom, right?! I already know!" (Volume 67, Chapter 644; Episode 380, crunchyroll subtitles)
The thoughts of a father and mother poured in…
Those definitely have been passed down to his son…!!
[Birthday]
“Happy Birthday” (Volume 72, Chapter 691)
A necessary parting due to being resurrected by unusual circumstances…
To his son, he leaves behind a great present.
Former Master Jiraiya had bestowed unto Minato, (and now) Minato has bestowed unto his son, the “Saviour”——.
The matured Naruto is a splendid embodiment which he got to see.
To the joy of his heart, a father grants his son with words.
In time with the first light of dawn, the words said as a father to his son, is his first ever birthday wish.

Minato… did you write this?
Seriously, first time I scanned through it, I felt like I was reading some epic poetic life story. All these fancy kanji with awe-inspiring meaning and uncommon pronunciation.
Hope anons are ok with this. Ask if you have suggestions or questions~
…
My sentiments and grievances:
Knowing Minato and his love for big words
I was wary about translating this
but people were nice when requesting
so okay, after Tobirama and Iruka, how hard could it be
as if I had completely forgotten about
the onslaught of feels
of going through all those scenes again
Profiles are quite hard
They take patience
you gotta really love the character
to even get into the profile
that way you can also pick up the tone
and probably see the play on words better
I’m not a Minato fan
but after doing this…
…
Looking at the scenes up-close… trying to describe the scene as accurate as possible but getting overwhelmed by the feels.
Even with the hard copy manga, these scenes wouldn’t be looked at so closely, because the scans on screen are so much bigger than the actual pages of the book.
Minato and Kushina’s death. Their deaths were really sad… even now…
Trying to convey the misery of that predicament. D:
The first time he ever slashed Obito, his own student. His own damn student. With the intent to kill.
Realising it was him all long. Feeling like, “If only I had realised, if only…!!”.
Damn you miserable twits for making me cry so much…
Finally, the passing down of the title “Saviour” from Jiraiya to Minato. At first, I thought this meant “Jiraiya entrusts Minato, and Minato entrusts to Naruto, (to bring up the next) Saviour”. O.O Minato, do you mean for Naruto’s kid to be the next Saviour?! After calming down, it’s not, because “託し takushi" can also mean bestow or grant, as in titles or honours. But still, that would be a cool double-meaning.
…
Changes to p. 172 and p. 173 translations:
The opener’s “time and space too" to "even time and space”.
“blinding glint" to "thunderbolt”
…
Alternative translations:
I’ll add more some other day… those words were tough
especially the bold phrases. goddamn.
Minato and his big words…
Here’s a few:
その sono “that” written as 其の - same meaning
When simple words get kanji of their own - you know shit’s important
威名 imyou - 人をおそれさせるほどの名声 - hito o osoresaseru hodo no meisei “fame that scares people”
so it really is
> Fearsome fame
somehow i ended up with
» awesome prestige
Play on words: Read the same way as 異名 imyou - nickname. Ties in with “The Yellow Flash”, so it can be interpreted as “That nickname”. Both meanings are applicable.
Which tells me I am in for some tough work.
Minato even my dictionary cannot compute your fancy words
翔け kake - soar, fly (can be used to describe spirits, moods, eg soaring spirits - high-spirits/enthusiasm)
廻る meguru - go around, spin, revolve (as in the Earth around the Sun), rotate.
so add in the negative ん and I take the word to mean: lit. does not soar (fly) around
> time and space does not, or seems not to soar/move freely like it should in Minato’s presence
» time and space seem to stand still to Minato’s awesome prestige
hype much?
most direct translation is:
“That fearsome fame… even time and space stand still!”
or
“Even time and space stand still (to) that fearsome fame.”
the hype would be unreal
similar word: 駆け回る kakemeguru - run around (back and forth, to and fro)
the difference being 駆ける kakeru - run, instead of fly/soar.
- both phrases have the same reading, and hence same general meaning when spoken, but depending on which kanji is on paper the meaning becomes more specific
in this case more poetic
but take it as you like
the jutsu are easier to translate in comparison — straight-forward
which is why, when I’m done, I’ll go back to Tobirama’s jutsu
…
More words I struggled with:
眉目秀麗 - bimokushuurei - handsome-looking man
(眉目 bimoku - one’s looks; 秀麗 shuurei - handsome, graceful)
> handsome-looking man » handsome man
was tempted to put “gorgeously handsome” but I refrained)
using an idiom to describe the handsomeness of a man — he’s hot
天賦 tenpu - natural gift/talent, innate/inborn talent
閃き hirameki - flash, inspiration
read this out loud like how Ichiya from Fairy Tail says “kirameki” does. motivating.
now this one
紫電が如く shiden ga gotoku
紫電 shiden - lit. purple power.
Google translate cannot save me here.
Actual picture of purple lightning …does not help much.
Japanese dictionary: 1) purple lightning strike; 2) a sharp flash of light; a sharp gaze or stare; the glint from the edge of a sword’s blade.
Putting it as “purple lightning” sounds odd. He was just described as being the “yellow” flash so now what’s with this purple?
Very basically, it is a
>bright flash
“Bright flash” too simple. Intensity of the word lost. Try to preserve the meanings of the word.
Otherwise, why did Kishi choose this kanji.
» blinding glint - very bright flash, as in “GAH MY EYES” + glint, as in from a sword’s edge
I dunno man
brightness of a purple-lightning + glint from the edge of a sword
> shocking, electrifying, jolting
like a… BOLT

今よりちょうど17年前の10月10日、突如として木ノ葉を襲った惨劇——。
仮面の男の策略により、クシナの身より現出した九尾を再び封印すべく、ミナトは自らの生命を媒介として、禁術”屍鬼封印”を発動する。

【師として】
第四次忍界大戦の首謀者は、九尾事件と同じ仮面の男だった。
ミナトはかつて印した”飛雷神”のマーキングを利用して飛ぶ。
だがそこに居たのはかつての教え子・うちはオビトであった…。
【想い全て】
愛弟子の変わり果てた姿、あの日仮面の下の素顔を悟れなかった己の咎。
喪心のミナトを奮い立たせたのは、一流の忍として成長を遂げた息子・ナルトだった。
父と子は互いの拳を合わせ、忍界の脅威に立ち向かう。
内に注いだ父母の想い…。
息子には確かに、それが伝わっていた…!!
【誕生日】
外法にて蘇りしゆえの必然の別れ…。
息子に、大きなプレゼントを遺した。
かつて師・自来也がミナトに託し、ミナトが息子ナルトへと託した「救世主」——。
成長したナルトは、それを見事体現して見せてくれた。
歓びを胸に、父は息子に言葉を授かる。
暁光と共に告げたそれは、父から息子への初めての誕生祝だった。
