Minato didn't save his son, so why would he use Sage Mode in his fight with Juubito?

This^ Tobirama got stompped by Madara too, but at least it didn't happen in 2 panels. and he block at least a few of Madara's taijutus skills before he was taken down....

And he didn't even have Sage Mode or KCM. Me thinks Tobirama may be stronger than Minato. XD

Tobirama didn't fight juubi Madara.

Seriously. I use to like Minato before he came back as an edo. Sure he wasn't invincible and reminded me a lot of Kakashi (An average ninja from an average clan with some pretty sick Uzumaki fuuinjutsu)

I thought this would have been enough. But no Kishi has been giving him all of Naruto's special techs/Modes which just seriously irks me to no end. The guy was powerful enough he didn't need all these power ups, and a lot of good they did him. He is worse then when he was dead.

I wonder why Kishi is just stomping him so hard. I mean you give him sage mode one panel and literally 2 panels later He gets stomped with only Taijutsu?

Really what was the point in that? Seriously a very big FAIL!

IKR it irks me what Kishi is doing

He did not have a chakra as stated in the manga. Not sure who the reading comprehension is so bad. !

Yet he still had KCM on...

Kishi hates Minato for some reason.

Tobirama didn't fight juubi Madara.

Okay true you have a point there. Maybe Tobirama might not have faired so well if it were Juubi Madara.

or kishi is rushing manga and leaving errors

I like Minato, but it pissed me off when he ends up being a copy cat of Naruto.

With what Blaze said. It's just plot that he has it

Imo, he supposed to be an Edo with unlimits chakra? Kishi has been trolling this lately since Minato arrived to the battlefield.

Edos only have a constant regeneration of chakra. Not limitless chakra.

So an edo can run out of chakra. Its just they will regenerate it. And they will be able to do that forever, until they are released from edo form.

Chakra actually works just like it does on ultimate ninja storm. You have a chakra bar. When you use jutsu and stuff, you deplete the chakra bar. You still have to do the action of molding the chakra(holding y or triangle).

So the edo being out of chakra is something that can happen.

Him being in kcm is where it is tricky. It could very well have been a mistranslation, and minato actually said"im low on chakra" which certainly can happen in kcm(though it normally wont)

Most likely it was just a error on kishis part. Minato probably was meant to be in base mode if he said he was out of chakra.


But honestly I dont care. I just speculate and theorize on everything. My opinion as to why minato didnt use sage mode earlier, is because he couldnt use it in kcm. And that he didnt need to use it, as he wasnt really fighting, and naruto was doing the sage mode and fighting. But unless kishi says something, this is just a speculation.
