Obito vs Minato - The Age Question

[Thane]

Hello everyone

So a lot of people are claiming that Obito couldn't possibly have stood up to Minato at the age of 14. Well, let's have a look at some of our other Japanese friends and see what they have to say:

Gohan:

Age: 5 - Travels to other planets, stands up to the strongest foes around and still manages to do well in school.

Ash Ketchum:

Age: 10 - Travels around the world, beats every gym leader in his path, stands up to the strongest pokémon there is.

Light Yagami:

Age: 18 - Decided to make himself a God.

Naruto Uzumaki:

Age: 13 - Takes on a Tailed Beast and wins. Manages to summon Gamabunta. Had just beaten Neji.

Conclusion: Japanese kids are imba.

So is it really that strange if Obito just got a power up and managed to stand up to Minato?

(Yes, this is a joke thread, I'm not using this argument seriously. If you know of other hip youngsters taking on the world feel free to tell me)

but ash loses almost every tournament he enters. looking back on it, hes kind of a crappy trainer

Quite frankly, Light being that smart at 18 still baffles me. But with Obito, it wouldn't surprise me if he really fought Minato at 14, because he hardly pushed Minato to his limits (though the Kyuubi caused him problems).

It's plausible. Tobi had a deep ass voice as a 14 year old... Puberty hit that bitch hard. xd

The age doesn't matter in my opinion, it's the fact that he went from being a shrimp to tall in the time of his "death" to the attack and his voice changed, although the latter isn't really that important.

You fail soo hard ... Some of the characters you mentioned are from other universes and Naruto trained hard and showed feats before fighting Neji, summoning Gamabunta, and taking on Gaara. Not to mention he has the Nine Tails

You didn't read the part about me joking, did you?

True, even kid Goku fought and kicked a lot of ass at his young age.

So? It's Tobito's not fault; Minato's just short. Tobito is too tall for him >.>

Forget other universes, Itachi killed his clan and defeated orochimaru at 13. Nagato with his doujutsu was a boss at 10. People need to think before they say someone can not be powerful at 14-15 in Naruto.

-_- I mean how he went from short (not to mention under a boulder which likely did nothing good for his body's growth) to tall in a short period of time.

Well I personally think that was Madara who just borrowed Obito's eyes or something. One never knows. Don't forget anything's possible with the Sharingan these days, especially since everyone in Naruto is a proficient eye surgeon.

yeah. That's why I stopped watching this show :| xd

Hey hey hey...they just have to make money somehow right? If they had just changed main character every now and again, I bet he'd have won the first tournament!

The bell exercise where Kakashi was fighting Minato can kind of give you an idea that Obito fighting Minato during the 9 tails attack isnt impossible
