*sigh* i cannot believe im doing this. But i guess it has to be done. U_U
Its fair to say minato fans make up the minority on nb and 98% of their fanbase is made up of intellectual people who can come up with good arguments, whilst the 2% are the less intelligent once (Baka sennin, fourth hoakge of the leaf, Itachi Namikaze) ;)

Anyway im going to explain two things. The first being why minato isnt immune to genjutsu and the second being why tobi didnt/couldn't use genjutsu during their encounter. First of all, the question is who is immune to genjutsu, the answer is no one. We have seen people with doujutsu, high intelligence, kage level, sannins, jinchrucki's genjutsu specialists all get caught in genjutsu, so why is minato any different, i wonder?

The 2nd mizukage, killed muu the 2nd tsuckage, the 2nd miukage is a genjutsu user and i have no doubt in my mind that this helped him defeat muu, both died though;

^^ These people have all been caught in genjutsu. Now i bet you are wondering why i havent listed other noticeable members who have been caught in genjutsu. Well thats for my next point. But to simply stress this issue out, its clearly been stated that only perfect jinchuricki's is 'supposedly' immune to genjutsu;

Is Minato a jinchuricki. Secondly is he a perfect jinchrucki. The link alone should tell you that minato isnt immune to genjutsu. Also talking about perfect jinchurcki's, there is a pattern that has been established by kishi. He states something, then in a few chapters later it contradicts what he said. What i will tell you know if you havent realised about naruto is that there is no such thing as invincible, immune, immortal, invisible and although minato isnt a jinchrucki i want to show you that if genjutsu works on a perfect jinchricki, its working on minato.

The 4th mizukage who was also said to be a perfect jinckrucki was controlled in a genjutsu by tobi;

Now that the issue concerning minato's apparent genjutsu immunity is over. Ill explain the argument why tobi didnt use genjutsu on minato. This is basically the logic minato fans have resorted to, then again whats new U_U. Apparently because tobi didnt use genjutsu on minato, minato is immune? :rolleyes:.

First all Tobi might be a genjutsu user but so far he hasnt shown true skill in genjutsu like other noticeable characters in battle to say the least. The only time he used genjutsu in battle was against Konan and this time he was forced to otherwise he wouldve died at the cost of an eye. He Used izanagi which casts genjutsu on the USER. He hasn't used genjutsu on another person in battle the way others have done;

He is good at it to control Yagura and the fox, but he it clearly isnt his fighting style or he isnt skilled at it to use it in actual combat.

To those who say why didnt he use it against minato, therefore minato is immune. Ask yourself this, why did he use this against Fu and Torune, and team kakashi or are all of them immune to genjutsu aswell. Basically saying minato is immune because tobi didnt use it is basically saying team kakashi, fu and torune, bee and gai are also immune, but there is one slight problem.

Team kakashi consisted of, Kakashi, Yamato, Sai, Sakura, Hinata, Naruto, Shino, kiba;

If they are all immune to genjutsu, since tobi didnt use, then explain this;

Basically you are saying, because tobi didnt use genjutsu on minato, fu, torune, kiba, kakashi, sakura, yamato, sai, naruto, bee, gai shino they are all immune?. Come on what retarded logic is this?. Id doesnt even deserve to be labelled logic, its just retarded.

Also you could argue that the control of the 9 tails limited his use with the genjutsu. If you go back to his recent fight's its clear that the control of a tailed beasts requires alot of effort and him casting controlling the 9 tails with genjutsu obviously must have limits him the same way it does here;

Finally every fight has an element of plot no jutsu to it. Tobi couldve killed naruto when he had him in his arms, yet he threw him in the air. If he killed naruto, then there wouldnt be a show. Similarly if he controlled minato instead of the fox, then nobody couldve stopped him. Similarly he couldve easily stalled minato the same way he did to team kakashi and not attack meaning he doesnt need to solidify therefore he stays intangible

He's not immune. You just have to be extremely fast at casting your genjutsu or he will teleport away. A slow casting genjutsu won't work on him. He's to fast.

Didn't read all that.

But I say, no: nobody is immune to genjutsu.

You can avoid genjutsu or break out of it (via help or doing whatever sasuke did) - that's about it :)

EDIT - okay I went back and read it all - and I agree 100% (+ rep)

Sure is a long post, I read most of it.
If I had to argue this I would simply say that the only people that are invulnerable to genjutsu are Jinchuuriki. Minato obviously isn't a jinchuuriki, so end of argument.

Also it should be noted that we haven't seen Tobi use any Sharingan(MS/EMS) techniques other than Izanagi which (arguably) requires Senju DNA.

He used a sharingan genjutsu on konan to find nagatos location.

Okay, I agree with the Genjutsu argument and everything.

But I disagree that the base consists of a majority of Minato fanboys. There are more Uchiha fanboys. Especially Itachi's fanboys. And I've been longer than you here, and that's I'm sure about. There are more Itachi fanboys on NB than Minato fanboys.

Its true you have been here more than i, but you see ive great reasons for saying minato fans make up the majority on nb xd. Saw through the sarcasm i presume

Minato is immune to all Forms of Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu.

Problem?.
Lolz, i know you fooling around xd

don't see the point of this but its obvious that minato isnt immune to genjutsu ... but i admit it was well presented tho and good facts but you cant say why a character didnt do that or couldn't do that when kishi is the one who made it happen but yea good thread bra =p

there is always gonna be fanboys of both so his percentage's are a little off, however a minato fanboy would say he is immune to genjutsu, did a pretty good job of proving anybody can be put into a genjutsu, its just jinchuriki can break out of it easily cause they are essentially two beings in one. but any shinobi can break out of most genjutsu, tsukuyomi and koto amatsukami (however its spelled) are exceptions due to their extreme level, I will say that minato can probably break out of most genjutsu.
