Minato was strong, but not as strong as some people make him out to be. They believe Minato is unstoppable and FTG is an unbeatable Jutsu. I don't agree with this thread tho.

Fail thread. Minato was one of the greatest kages ever. Powerful, faster than everyone, highly intelligent/skilled. He quickly was able to deduce and counter Tobi's S/T jutsu and severely injure him, forcing Tobi to retreat. Which is amazing considering Kakashi and Naruto are JUST figuring out how to counter Tobi's jutsu(which is sad since they have known about Tobi's jutsu for a while, and were hopeless against it on several occasions). Konan only figured out how to counter Tobi's jutsu because she spent years with him in akatsuki, and had watched him the many times he used the jutsu, along with her elaborate premeditated paper bomb trap she already had set up prior to their fight. Not saying she is weak, konan is pretty skilled and smart to pull that off. But Minato figured out him to beat Tobi on the fly. Minato is a true man

Minato isn't that strong. If you had good stamina u culd beat him. All u have to do is be good with kunai. He uses kunai to tele and u culd use kunai to deflect his. FTG takes crazy chakra so he can't use it for long.

Ppl always bring up the war thing with minato. But 1 vs 1 something like that wuldnt work. He had to get ppl to help him throw kunai so he culd actually even attempt that strategy so just cuz he did it in the war doesn't mean he culd do it 1 vs 1 or he wuld have done it against Tobi.

And ohhhh he hit Tobi 2 times and fanboys go crazy. Tobi was dumb and he's not that strong either. He should of brought kunai if he knew how Minato fights. Also all he does is demateralize so u can't hit for 5 min. So if someone turns invisible and u can't see them does that make them crazy strong ? No .

All u wuld have to do is keep ur distance from minato and wait till he exhaust himself cuz FTG takes lots of chakra and then take him down.


Minato really wasn't that strong IMO.

except he beat tobi ..... :flaw:

FTG need not be used for long it gives minato upper hand instantaneously that's why even A couldn't defeat him

dude he used ftg in a war to annihilate a whole army that means he used it a lot of times that means ftg doesn't use a lot of chakra unlike what you said

So basically your argument on why Minato isn't that strong is one could simply throw a kunai at his? Ten-Ten > Fourth Hokage :rofl: Even if his kunai is hit with another, he can still teleport to it.

Minato was one of the weakest kages. He only had FTG, Rasengan and Fail-time barrier. I think hes on par with Tsunade... so pretty much fodder.

Minato was the only individual who had a 'flee on sight' order issued against him by the enemy ninja . . . . s the Majority of the nerutoverse Shinobi thinks he is good enough to put up a challenge.

Ummm Minato can place seals anywhere he wishes without using kunai's. And Minato used FTG a lot during his fight with Tobi, so either he has a lot of chakra or it takes very little chakra.

Ppl always bring up the war thing with minato. But 1 vs 1 something like that wuldnt work. He had to get ppl to help him throw kunai so he culd actually even attempt that strategy so just cuz he did it in the war doesn't mean he culd do it 1 vs 1 or he wuld have done it against Tobi.

Have you seen how many kunai's Minato can throw out at once?

You must be registered for see images

And he only needed to throw one kunai against Tobi for his strategy to work and it did.

And ohhhh he hit Tobi 2 times and fanboys go crazy. Tobi was dumb and he's not that strong either. He should of brought kunai if he knew how Minato fights. Also all he does is demateralize so u can't hit for 5 min. So if someone turns invisible and u can't see them does that make them crazy strong ? No .

That not so strong Tobi that lost to Minato is making fools out of Naruto, Kakashi, Guy and Bee at the moment. And don't bring up the rinnegan since he's not even using it.

All u wuld have to do is keep ur distance from minato and wait till he exhaust himself cuz FTG takes lots of chakra and then take him down.

He used it a ton during his fight with Tobi and never exhausted himself, so once again Minato either has a lot of chakra or FTG requires very little.

And I love how you conveniently leave out Minato's summons, seals, etc.

Minato really wasn't that strong IMO.

Well you're entitled to your opinion, but saying he's not that strong is pure ignorance on your part IMO.

You must be crazy. Minato has the best combo attacks to quickly decapitate an opponent.
