"The Reaper Death Seal(RDS) and Minato Kyubbi Chakra Mode" Explained (Must read)

Firstly I wish to thank my friend and fellow countrymen for giving a spark with the Yin-Yang Idea for this theory.

What is Yin and Yang?
The Yin and Yang are the two extremities of the Life...

In our Manga Kishimoto brings that Our body(Humans) contains the yin(soul or chakra) and Yang(Body or medium or vessel)
But it Differs with the tailed beast (yin-Light chakra Yang-Dark chakra)

Reaper Death seal in Naruto:
In the following occasions Reaper Death seal was performed
1.In The First half we saw Hiruzen sealing both shodaime and nindaime hokage's using the reaper death seal.!! even Orochimaru's Hands.!!

2.In Shippuden we saw Minato sealing half of the Kurama inside him using the same jutsu..

What does the RDS do?
1.It is a powerful fuinjutsu of the uzumaki's
2.The user calls forth the Shinigami.It appears behind the user.With some cursed seals on its hand it grabs the targets soul.
Detailed Explanation:
The Shinigami separates the Yin and Yang i.e the soul from the body or the light chakra from the other counter part dark chakra.

During Hiruzens:
The edo-tensi body were the yang part and soul of the First and Second hokage were the Yin part.
The Shingami sealed the Yin part(soul)within itself leaving the Yang(Edo-tensi body) apart.

During Minato's:
Yin-half of Kurama was sealed within Minato and then inside the Shinigami


Why Kurama is Still inside Minato while other two are out?
The answer is simple..Yin and yang should be together.Hashirama,Tobirama had the edo tensi bodies(yang) to go into.there by making Yin-Yang. If the Edo tensi Wasnt Casted They would have remained Inside Hiruzen.This explains Why kurama is inside minato.


How Minato controlled the Kurama chakra?
Same Yin-Yang applies..
We saw when naruto was fighting with kurama we saw that Only the Yin half..i.e Naruto's chakra or soul (Yin part) fought with Kurama.The fight took in his mind..we all know that.

This explains How minato was able to control it.Yin part of Minato(Minato's soul) was sealed with kurama inside the Shinigami .So its more probable that minato was able to battle kurama inside the Shinigami.

Conclusion:
1.Yin-Yang are two extremeties.One cannot be without another.
2.RDS seperates only the Yin part from the User.
3.For a Tailed Beast That is sealed inside the user.If Yang is not available for it or if its not summoned it remains inside the user and makes use of the yin or yang of the user.

Pretty good
It sent a good point and was concise, and makes you look at the manga's concept of the soul as yin chakra and RDS separates it and how Yin and Yang have to be together

There were some minor problems though:
Minato never fought Kurama mentally, Kurama willingly let him have access I assume. Neither Minato or Yin Kurama ever mentioned a fight

And also, this is nitpicking, yin is the dark half, yang is the light half. I just learned that this year, I always assumed the inverse too

Re: "The Reaper Death Seal(RDS) and Minato Kyubbi Chakra Mode" Explained (Must read)

Very interesting.

I have a post from long, long ago that might tie into your theory. I also thought that Yin chakra and souls are based on spiritual energy.
I have a feeling that Minato didn't truly have choice in the matter of what half of Kurama's chakra to seal.

This is purely hypothetical but this is what I think:

The Shinigami seems like an intangible, spiritual creature that usually interacts with souls. And it just so happens that the basis of "Yin" is Spiritual Energy. Could it be possible that:
  • the basis of souls are also spiritual energy?
  • the shinigami can interact with Yin chakra but not Yang Chakra (being based on physical energy)?
So that's why I think that the Shinigami can't seal Yang chakra within itself even if it wanted to. And this might be what Minato meant when he said that it is physically and conceptually impossible to seal it all. (But then again, the fact that he also said that the Kyuubi's chakra is just too great in the same context, kinda messes with this hypothesis.)

Also, this would also explain how Minato managed to split the Kyuubi's chakra into its yin and yang parts. Because all we see is the shinigami's arm grabbing what vaguely resembles Kurama's soul and pull it in. We dont see Minato actually going through the process of separating any chakra.

Another interesting thing is that when the shinigami is activated, a hangs in front of the shinigami in a crucifix position. When Hiruzen called the shinigami against Oro and the Senju brothers, the humanoid figure obtained after sealing the two Hokages. The shinigami also goes on to eat two of the heads,:eek: but thats besides the point. Anyway, the when Minato seals the Kyuubi's Yin Chakra. But this time you can clearly see that the heads belong to Minato and Kurama.

Now, whats so interesting about all of this is the fact that even though Kurama's yin chakra was taken by the shinigami it looked exactly the same as when a person's soul was taken. This is only to show why I'm so inclined to think that Yin chakra and souls are both based on spiritual energy. And why Minato sealed the Yin-half of Kurama's chakra.
I just remembered something else that might tie into your theory. Remember Tayuya, that fought against Shikimaru in part one? The dirty mouthed girl from the Sound Four that used a flute to cast genjutsu?

Anyway, she had a summoning called a Doki (or something like that) and the doki would release creatures called Spirit worms that consist almost entirely of Spiritual energy (aka mental energy), which is said to be an unstable state of existence. So they fed on Physical energy (aka stamina) to attain stability.

The basis of Yin release is Spiritual energy and the basis of Yang release is Physical energy. The half of Kuruma that was sealed into the Shinigami was made entirely of Yin chakra (which is based on spiritual energy).

The point is that this could be used to show that the Kuruma's "Yin-Ckarka-only" existence was, just like the spirit worms, unstable and thus required the Yang of the user to attain stability.

Re: "The Reaper Death Seal(RDS) and Minato Kyubbi Chakra Mode" Explained (Must read)

I have a feeling that i have seen this theory already!However there are some flaws:-
1)Yin doesnt mean light and yang doesnt mean dark!
In naruto Yin kurama is more darker than yang kurama..Darkness concept is different!
2)ONly yin half of naruto didnt battle with kurama,Battling in mind doesnt mean he cant make use of his yang..naruto was able to use all his jutsus inside his mind...!And a jutsu cant be used to his fullest potential unless u have both yin and yang chakra!But naruto did it with his fullest potential!
Apart from dat..how did u know battling in mind makes use of only yin chakra?

Well I accept with the first point..about the second one..in humans..i.e shinobi the yin represents the soul and yang represents the body or chakra...while naruto battling the kurama..it was purely in his conciousness (in mind) with his chakra(It was a chakra tug of war ) actually...so that explains it..
