Minato's SM

[LeSauce]

So minato is out of SM.

I think that it may just be a thing where he can only keep it up for one technique; A short burst.

People were saying this before and may be correct. What do you guys/gals think?

 

[Gold Lightning]

Nah, I'm pretty sure Madara just kicked the senjutsu out of him XD

 

[Son Ryuto Uzumaki]

Nawl he realized it was only so little he could do with No arms so he released the chakra

 

[RikudouMadara]

Yes...I believe he can only use it in a quick burst for one attack. As I don't see any reason for him to not be without it afterwards. Maybe it has something to do with his arms? Idk... I believe he can only use it for about 10-15 seconds or so.

Come on guys, be real here. Minato is a ' PERFECT SAGE"! There is no way he can only use it for a few seconds. Being a perfect sage means he's mastered senjutsu.

 

[Fair Warning]

pretty sure it would be dumb to keep using it after becoming useless

 

[Sir Blades]

Or he noticed it was useless after he tripped like Hinata.

 

[ANiMUS]

Not hating or anything, but it was funny that all Minato was used for in this chapter were flashbacks and a flop.

If Minato wasn't able to do anything he could have just stood there reminiscing, but Minato got posed for action, looked badass like he was gonna do something awesome with the kunai in his mouth (even with no arms), and then........he trips

XDXDXDXD Kishimoto wasted panel time just to have Minato fail.XD
I have been thinking it for a while, but it really does look like Kishimoto hates Minato.

OT: Kishimoto probably just didn't need it anymore so he stowed it away.

Well....idk I was just saying how I felt I was asking about it a while ago how it went away so quickly. Iirc....wasn't Naruto on a time limit with how long he could keep it up? Not sure on it though....wasn't it 5 minutes or something? Come to think of it, it seems he wasn't able to keep his "BM" up for that long as well. Or at least it went away quickly I think. Idk... why do you think it went away? I was just going by what I saw in the Manga. >_O

 

[Zavage10]

You maybe right. Sage mode doesn't just disperse from mere taijutsu.

Man ... that was embarrassing.

I'm sure that if Minato really did have a limit, it would be minutes and not second.

 

[RikudouMadara]

I'm sure that if Minato really did have a limit, it would be minutes and not second.

I see....cool, but I still feel the same just saying.

 

[Sennin of Logic]

That's possible. It would explain why Fukasaku said that Naruto surpassed his predecessors. However, the case could be made that The conversation was long enough for SM to run out. Remember, Naruto was initially only able to maintain SM for no more than 5 minutes. Obito's talk probably did take a couple of minutes.

Overall, I don't think Minato can only use it for short bursts, but regardless, it doesn't last long. Certainly not over 5 minutes.

Edit: I've timed my reading of the panel from Minato was in SM to when he was shown without it. Not including the dialog in his flashback, it took 1 and a half minutes. I'm guessing that with the flashback dialog, it'd be 3-4 minutes. It actually doesn't matter considering that Minato can enter it quickly and FTG enables him to get to safe spots to prep it.


Perhaps the tiny amount of time he was in it is related to the fact that he entered it quickly.

Well we still need to see more of what Minatos sage mode is capable of. What we do know is that Minato only needs a second to go into sage mode, something Naruto can't do. Hopefully kishimoto displays more of his abilities.

He lost an arm, it probably went off. Not like there's any reason to keep it on.

I don't think you can force natural energy out of your body, otherwise, chakra reserves wouldn't be an issue for senjutsu training.

yea i concur

 

[LeSauce]

I mostly agree with what your saying. I never thought one could get out of Sage Mode by choice, or that they had to keep gaining Natural energy as they fought.

The only thing is that I don't believe we would be able to say how long he can hold it since we didn't see him get out of it.

True, but I doubt he only last in sage mode for 10 seconds. Just saying. But here's the funny thing. With FTG and quick entering time, it wouldn't even matter even if that was the case lol.
