Well let me start by first saying hi to everyone on NB :b

Now I like reading threads and seeing the opinions of other people but i tend to come across a lot of threads like 'Itachi pwns minato' or 'Nagato pwns minato' which kinda get annoying.

Now let me state this, IF minato was so weak, you wouldn't even be comparing him to the likes of itachi, nagato etc :flaw:. I don't seeing people making threads like 'itachi pwns ino' :shrug: and i don't believe someone who is 'weak' can become hokage at such a young age.

I'll admit that is he is prob my favourite character alongside itachi, nagato, young kushina (lol shes so cute n funny xd) and tobi but that dosen't mean ill be a fanboy and overrate him. In a lot of discussions i see 'we haven't seen much from minato' which i agree with, but from what we have seen i don't think theres anybody thats put minato on the back foot yet.

From what we have seen he completely owns A who a MS sasuke had trouble coping with, he was able to counter kurama and able to beat tobi in a single confrontation. The only other people able to touch tobi were konan (through studying him over time) and kakashi's group (by using his own power against him).

Now i think minato is the strongest hokage bar hashirama (although i see him beating minato, he'll definitely get a fight lol :p)

Now lets start the vs threads.

VS Itachi

Now i don't really see itachi getting minato in tsukuyomi, however if he does i don't see minato getting out but i don't think minato is the type of char to get caught in genjutsu.

Amaterasu - A dodged it - minato is faster than A - nuff said.

Now the problem is Susanoo, I defo don't see him breaking it with a rasengan xd but if minato marks itachi beforehand he can prob get inside (don't say he can't coz gaara's sand got inside madara's). Now people says itachi wins coz of the blade of totsuka but fail to realize you actually have to hit minato with it lol :sy: which i don't think we've seen anyone do yet.

Now if he avoids tsukuyomi and totsuka then it comes down to stamina which minato comes out on top. Plus minato is 1 of the only chars who's intelligence matches itachi's (the other being kakashi).

Btw Inazami does not count, itachi only used it coz he was an edo.

VS Nagato

Believe it or not i actually think he would beat the six paths of pain quite easily.

Naraka Path- doesn't put up that much of a fight against minato

Preta Path - Taijutsu

Animal Path - Gamabunta etc.

Human Path - same as Naraka

Asura Path - was the first to go vs sage mode naruto n will prob b the first to go here :lmao:

Deva Path - Bansho Tenin - minato can teleport away

Shinra Tensi - minato can overcome the 5 second limit

Chibaku Tensei - minato could also teleport out of this

Shared Rinnegan vision - i think ftg takes care of this

Now vs Nagato himself - :shy: now this could be a problem xd

we all know that nagato surpasses minato in terms of chakra and power plus he can use all the powers of the paths means ninjutsu won't work but neither will taijustu as the 5 second limit on shinra tensei is now gone.

so minato can ftg all he wants :D but i don't see him getting past nagato's defense. Unless minato can find a way nagato takes this but u never know.

People i think minato could possibly beat (remember i said could)

Ems Sasuke - if itachi can't beat him then sasuke defo can't, he may have more power than itachi but itachi outsmarts him all the way

Bm Naruto - u might think im mad but if minato can counter a full powered kurama than naruto with half kurama's power isn't any better lol

Rinnegan tobi - people say he can't beat tobi anymore coz 16 years have passed n tobi is wiser but if minato had lived wouldn't he have been? plus if kakashi and guy can last this long then minato can defo put up a good fight here

Ems Madara - this is due to the fact that i don't believe ems madara can use the perfect susanoo, otherwise he would never have lost to hashirama. PS is prob due to hashirama's chakra lvls.

hashirama - :shy: minato prob gets his ass whooped here :T_T:

rinnegan Madara - minato is dead xd

Kushina - She kicks his ass big time :D:lmao:xd

feel free to tell me ur opinions, however be nice :scorps:

Why underrate brain cells so much?


Minato = one of my favourites but some current ninjas beat him and so would Nagato.

No, people like you overrate him and others bring him down to size. When did he own A? Why is it that when someone dodge a punch = better than them? Naruto dodge 1 punch and people started saying he was faster. :sy:There are many ways to beat Minato take away his Kunai's 40-50% of his power is gone. Honestly shikamaru or his dad could possibly beat minato. It just seems like they could set him up. Just came to my mind.

Minato is overrated.
Itachi is overrated.
Nagato is often underrated, but sometimes overrated as well.

Minato>Itachi
Nagato>=Minato

Current Tobi>Minato

In forums minato is more overrated than underrated for sure :hint:, people keep saying he can ftg to outer space etc which is BULLSHIT _O- xd he is strong and good(father atleast) , but i think he will be defeated against most people in that list in their current states (or before they were goners) :scorps: and yes.. welcome to the forums! :hey:

You simple believe Minato can beat nagato, that makes you a fanboy :|

did u actually read it, i said minato beats pain but nagato beats minato

:| Nagato is the one who controls Pein. Pein is a weapon to him.
Also, Minato is actually heavily overrated on this forum. I don't say he is weak, because he certainly isn't. But some people really overrate him too much; some make it seem like he's almost god like or so

i didn't really overate him, i just stated his chances.

true he didn't really own A.

saying take away his kunai like like saying take away kurama from naruto, Ms from itachi/sasuke or rinnegan from nagato/madara. what happens then? :shrug:

And how in hell does shikamaru beat him? :flaw:
