I am sick and tired of fanboys claiming tobirama is slower than minato. Yes, minato has a superior shushin; but tobirama is still faster. Obviously here are some scans proving that.

Tobirama out-speeding Minato by a factor of 10

Tobirama outspeeds minato when using FTG, which is all that really matters.

Of course tobirama ALSO has edo tensei, special edo tensei suicide bomb skills, best suiton in the manga, amazing s/t, kenjutsu, amazing sensing, very strategic (allowed himself to be destroyed in order later plant a seal.)

I'm not saying Tobirama >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> minato but.... :cool:

Minato is faster and has better reflexes. Plus he was smart enough to put FTG marks on kunai knives, making it more effective in battle.

Minato was the one known as the Yellow Flash and it is his speed that everyone looks up to, not Tobirama's.

Shunshin has been also used to refer to FTG several times in the series, so we can't be sure if Tobirama was referring to FTG or just Shunshin no Jutsu. Though given that Tobirama had just been shown to use FTG recently, it is quite likely that he was referring to FTG otherwise why would he compare Minato to just himself as many ninja can use shunshin and Kishi probably wanted to settle it once and for all that Minato is the Fastest.

Also, Tobiramas clone that pops out of nowhere to grab the bijuu bomb when we haven't seen him for a couple of chapters is little proof of his faster reactions. One could even argue that Minato just lost an arm when he went against a controlled Sage Obito, while Tobirama pretty much got ripped in half by uncontrolled Juubito so Minato's reflexes should be comparatively better.

Both characters still have more to show us so I don't think we should jump to such conclusions after practically just one feat from Tobirama, given that the manga points to Minato being superior in terms of Speed and Reflexes.

Coming from the guy who was bashing Tobirama about his death before... For all we know, Tobirama was observing the fight and intervened as soon as he saw the blast appear. He was in a much bigger advantage to move that blast out the way than Minato who had one arm and was caught off guard. Tobirama was more prepared than Minato in that scenario since he wasn't in the fight at the time. That's what made it so easy for him to teleport the blast out the way.
Exactly this. Tobirama probably saw the bomb before Tobi pointed it to Minato. Didnt know Tobirama "fans" could be such idiots.
