Hello, i just thought i would post this, even though it's been a while since we discovered that Minato is able to enter KCM.
Why Minato's Kyuubi mode makes sense
So many people are thinking that Minato's Kyuubi/Bijuu mode is an asspull but if we look back at the evidence it actually makes perfect sense and supports the long held theory that he might be related to the Senju.
First let's take a look at the conversation that Jiraiya had with the key to Naruto's Seal.
In this conversation Jiraiya is perplexed as to why someone would seal something as dangerous and wild as the kyuubi into their own child. He knows that Minato must have had a very specific reason for doing this he just doesn't know what it is.
Unsurprisingly, when Naruto meet's Minato during the pain fight he asks the exact same question. Why would you seal the Kyuubi in your own son? Minato has an interesting answer to this.
Minato clearly states that the mere fact that Naruto is his son means that he should be able to control half of the kyuubi's chakra. Note that he didn't say that it was because he was Kushina's son, nor was it because he believed in him, but just because Naruto is his son. This leads me to understand that Minato new that the ability to control the Kyuubi's chakra was genetic and that he should have passed that trait on to his son.
This leads to two more questions.
1) If Minato has a genetic affinity for controling the kyuubi and gaining BM/KCM which clan did it come from?
2) Even if Minato had this affinity how would be know about it if he was not the kyuubi's jinchuuriki.
The answer to the first seems pretty straightforward, we have every indication that if this is a genetic trait then it comes from the Senju lineage.
First we see that the aesthetics of KM/BM are very similar to those of the Rikudou Sennin as seen below, indicating a link, possibly genetic through these two via the Senju Clan.

we also have the serval comparisons between the hiraishin of Minato and that of Tomirama which lends credence to they idea that they are both a part of the Senju can. Not that neither of these thinks are conclusive but together I think they paint a pretty clear picture.
The answer to the second question more directly relates to how Minato stumbled upon KM/BM when he was alive and before he had the kyuubi's yin chakra.
First we know that Minato was married to Kushina who was the jinchuriki of the kyuubi when Minato was alive. We also know that Minato must have done extensive experiments with the kyuubi's chakra while he was alive.
Here we see that Minato had observe the bijuu to create his signature technique the rasengan.
Here we see that Minato had devised "that jutsu" for Naruto to complete using the kyuubi chakra which means he must have had access to the kyuubi chakra in life in order to devise the jutsu.
This still leaves the question of how Minato actually had physical access to the kyuubi chakra if he was not the jin, and I think that this too has been answered in recent chapters.
Here we see that like Kushina, Naruto has the ability to interface with the Kyuubi's chakra and like Minato he has the ability to pass it out to people. So I think the underlying answer is simple Minato used his chakra transferring abilities to access the Kyuubi's chakra through Kushina where he discovered his affinity for KCM/BM.
I think this is a pretty decent theory on why Minato has access to BM/KCM, thoughts?
TLDR: Minato is a Senju which is why he and Naruto can used BM/KCM. When doing research on the bijuu to complete the rasengan he transferred kyuubi chakra to himself from Kushina giving him access to the modes and allowing him to discover "that jutsu."
Found this somewhere else, so i take no credit for it.
