I believe Minato can go into Sage Mode. If he has signed a contract and can summon frogs, surely a man of his intelligence would've wondered where they came from? Im guessing he asked, and they took him to the mountain and explained everything to him. Jiraiya states that Minato's "guts and desire to succeed were the fiercest I'd ever seen". I dont think he would've given up on senjutsu and would've mastered it (atleast to Jiraiya's level).

To those who say 'Why didnt Minato use it against Tobi?' Well, Im guessin Minato uses the FTG-Rasengan combo to test out the opponent's strengths and weaknesses. If things get REALLLLLLY bad, he'll probs use Sage Mode. Also, after the Rasengan struck, Tobi left and Minato had achieved his objective: detach Kyuubi from Tobi.

Even after fighting Tobi, Minato had enough chakra to use space-time barrier on a frickin Bijuu ball, summon Gamabunta (which takes enormous chakra, as stated by Jiraiya), and then teleport himself and the MASSIVE Kyuubi away from Konoha, followed by the use of the Dead Demon Seal. Id say he has enough chakra to be able to use Sage Mode, as Sage Mode can only be used with people who possess huge amounts of chakra.

Then again, giving Minato SM would just make him even more powerful, maybe too powerful, therefore Kishi may not give it to him. I personally think he's got it, and we should be treated to a fight in which he uses it.

I know similar threads have been made before, but Im trying to justify that Minato DOES IN FACT have Sage Mode.

P.S For those saying Sage Mode=unlimited chakra, thats wrong as it gives unlimited NATURE chakra from Ma and Pa (if he summons them). But he would still need to mix it with his normal chakra. So Sage mode=/= unlimited chakra.

Since it was never said that he does have SM, we can't assume that he has the ability. I mean, he can summon toads but it doesn't mean he can do SM.

I don't think he does, If he does know it he would of used it to fight Tobi.

Maybe Jman Offered to Train him to be a Sage but he refused.

I doubt he learnt Sage Mode. Probably Jiraya didn't let him. He had a family and he was the hokage. One mistake and you are dead. The risk was too high.

Edit : Or like the poster above said, he might have refused the proposal.

I think he did he just didn't master it, Here you can see the toads talking doesn't that look familiar then he said naruto surpassed those who came before him and you see minato & Jiariya and we know for sure it wasn't in speed chakra wise naruto was always stronger then the both of them rasengan wise Minato was better so what else was he talking about ??? I think sage mode :shrug:

I think we don't have enough evidence to agree on this or not, we just can't say for sure, yea he might be able to use it, he could meet the requirements, but even then it is not necessary that he has it.
Until we get clear evidence from the manga we will never be able to say for sure, but only speculate.
In my opinion he might have it or not, even if he did he wouldn't use it too often because he is a speed fighter, entering SM takes some time, and by that time Minato will finish the job and be back home xd

It depends on what the kanji (is that what it's called?) says on Minato's back. If it says something like a toad or something, I guess we could assume he did.

in here fukasaku says naruto surpassed even jiraiya.
this means either minato didn't have it or he was worse at using SM than jiraiya.
but I don't see how worse can it get jiraiya was practically at the point of turning into a statue.

so I say, no he didn't have it.

He never learnt sage mode just because he signed a contract with the toads doesn't mean he trained in sage jutsu. Geezer sage stated that Jiraiya couldn't grasp the concept fully and also stated that not just anyone can master it. But due to Naruto's guts and determination which far surpasses his 2 predesessor's he was able to master it Geezer sage never ever stated that Minato trained in sage jutsu only Jiraiya.

I dont belive he counted with it.
If not he would have used it against the 9tails and tobi.
