@@SkyMach he was feared on all world, and no one could beat him in his time. Im not saying he was as strong as Hashirama, because hes obviously not. Im saying the gap between Minato and the average Shinobi in his time is the same gap as Hashirama and the average Shinobi in his time. Also because the average shinobi in Minato era is much weaker than the average in Hashiramas
I love how Tobi is doing the typical villain monologue and Minato just continues the attack because he is not finished. It's refreshing to see the hero not wait for the villain to stop talking.
Appart from Naruto and possibly DMS Kakashi Minato solos all of the Hokage. He's faster than everyone else I mentioned previously, and if he can get a seal on them he can just teleport behind them all and cut their heads off.

well to be fair to the rest of the characters, other than tobirama, minato is the only other character that could use the hiraishin in combat so, obito had the bad insight to forget that minato was the only other shinobi in that moment that was capable of using teleportation
It’s hard to describe how epic this scene is. This ability felt so broken you wondered how you would ever beat him, then you see this flash back and watch Minato absolutely wreck him in a matter seconds.. so legit!!
@@spencervance8484yea the weakness here is to be a Shinobi GOD though 😂 only 2 characters in Naruto can use this technique. That’s no weakness Minato is virtually unbeatable.
Honestly, Minato is the only character in the Naruto universe that doesn't use some sorta crazy plot armor or inexplainable power. He's the definition of true talent. Not some crazy genetics like sharingan, hashirama cells, crazy chakra reserves, etc. He's just really good at being a ninja and that's it.
naruto doesn't have unexplainable powers and having some exclusive genetics linked to a clan like sharingan isn't a bad thing. Its not their fault if they were born in a clan with special powers And there are multiple characters that doesn't use plot armor. Honestly I am just tired of whole term so called "plot armor". People be calling anything plot armor that survives which they wanted to die
@@thatpoorlonelyguywhonobody2143what do you mean by “unexplainable powers” ??? Cuz if it’s what I think you mean, Naruto does have unexplainable powers lol!!!! He’s the reincarnation of a direct descendant of a damn alien with GOD powers, just like Hashirama and Madara were. He also had 9 tails chakra. Unlike Naruto who was an Uzumaki, a reincarnation of ashura, and had the 9 tails sealed in him, Minato, Sakura, Guy Sensei, etc. were normal people from normal backgrounds with nothing but hard work and talent. They didnt have sum sealed in them, didnt have special chakra from a clan, and werent reincarnation of space gods.
Minato is so technical. The most proficient ninja in my opinion. Doesn't waste time at all. Managed to analyze Kamui in seconds, beat Obito, stab Obito, take Kurama off of his control all within seconds. What an efficient ninja. And best of all, no special clan or nothing. Just the best!
you said not any clan or eyes,he is a namikaze with too big chakra reserves and gifted wind style yet you say not a clan or nothing.BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Can we just appreciate the fact that Minato completely understood his technique and counterd it in only one move like a boss. It took others ages to do this. Edit: DAAAAAMN. i was out of my account for a while. 8k likes???? im mind blown.
@@sebastiancsori6775 yes but if im not mistaken, for a while naruto and others didnt even know what the teqnique is whereas minato instanlty countered it.
Don't forget obito is fighting his teacher while he was young he still had ample time to watch and learn anything from his jutsu. From what was shown minato wasn't very secret with his jutsu he was a very flashy fighter people knew him from looks and his jutsu alone
Obito didn't let down his guard, there was just nothing he could do to prevent lord 4th from appearing next to him since he got marked with a teleportation sign, the fight was over when lord 4th touched him.
You know you're against a wrong enemy when you see your opponent could create a perfect counter-attack against your perfect defense in just a few minutes.
@@KadenHartleyBro still died a GOAT bro protected the village and his son he did his job as the Hokage till the very end also he teleported a beast bomb that would have sure left the village worse then pain did Minato is a GOAT and your Sarcasm is not welcome👀🦇
Figured out Obito's ability and how to counter it in one engagement, and successfully pulled it off by himself in the next engagement - Minato was seriously awesome.
@Jon Miller kinda splitting hairs here, I didn't really mean he figured out everything about the jutsu - just that it was a teleportation technique beyond what his was capable of (which is what Minato says when he first sees Kamui). And as for if it was a counter.. I mean, Obito was *about* to use Kamui and Minato countered with Flying Raijin Lvl 2, I doubt the counter would work again tbh but definition wise that's what it was - a counter.
@Jon Miller you don't need to explain the video mate I know what happened, and yeah I agree he didn't figure out every little bit about Kamui but he definitely countered Obito. He didn't counter the direct full ability of Kamui because Obito didn't use it, either way Minato out classed Obito here and that's why he's awesome.
Besides his strength, speed and knowledge I genuinely think Minato’s greatest strength was his ability to remain calm, it allowed him to do things others couldn’t in the same situation.
Great observation.👍 It's something Kakashi obviously learned from him (due to Minato being his teacher). We see it in the fight Kakashi VS Pain. The only reason why Kakashi survived for so long was because he kept his calm.
It's really impressive how he managed to stay calm in this situation. The village is under attack by the nine tails, his wife and son has been kidnapped, and he is battling a guy who claims to be Madara.
Now that you mentioned it, I want to think that being able to remain calm to Minato's extent is want made him so scary when people referenced him in original Naruto.
The most underrated fact about Minato is that he never reached his peak prime times as a shinobi. He was 24 when he died; yet his achievements and powers are iconic, legendary and simply next level. If he had stayed alive and entered his prime years, he might even surpass Hashirama in terms of Hokage prowess.
Yea you do need to slow down 😂, Hashirama wasn’t a just shinobi, he was a walking tank. This man single-handedly defeated Madara and collected the tailed beast. Minato is my boy but it would take an awful lot for him to catch up to Hashirama level
@@RockDaSandman flying raijin is a stupidly strong move. And he essentially mastered it by 24 years old. Imagine how many more variations of the jutsu he couldve created on the way if he hadnt died? And that's just one move of I'm sure plenty that he has being the genius that he is.
@@RockDaSandman There are still unexplored parts of the flying raijin jutsu. Imagine Minato using them to teleport Hashirama to an alternate dimension. How is he coming back? He can't. You can have all the powers in the world but Hashirama can't teleport. Also, if Minato wanted to, imagine he assigning ANBUs to place his kunais in every village in Naruto Universe. Imagine Minato being able to teleport any part of any village unnoticed. These are just my ideas. The writers can do so much more. Minato was an unexplored beast and if he entered his prime times, I'm sure he'll surpass Hashirama as a Hokage.
@@kyawzawlin1327 that's why the writers will forget flying raijin exists in boruto 💀 even tho it's a simple solution to making any one character effective and useful no matter how high it gets scaled. What do you do about a literal instant transportation technique that doesnt require a special visual eye ability. That technique alone could make naruto extremely useful for a long time if they ever wanted to back track on the nerfs he received.

I don’t think that’s true I’ve never seen a scan o an episode that said when you see shisui flee on sight that’s only for Minato but if I’m wrong then sorry
@@cosmic1815 shisui was literally one of the best Uchiha in his clan with itachi in fact he was stated to be a threat by Ao the guy who fought him and Shisui could be the only one to fight itachi head on
Minato literally figured Tobi's ability and how to defeat him in like 2 mins and then went and stopped the kyuubi he really is overpowered like that's why he had to die or the Akatsuki would just straight up be annihilated.
To be fair, there was serious plot armor here. Look frame by frame if you like, but absolutely nothing Obito does during his first attack suggests the weak point of his Kamui. Minato had no reason to assume he could get around Kamui somehow, other than the fact the plot demanded Minato to beat Obito.
His presence of mind is really impressive considering he's facing madara for the first time and yes he estimated his ability and weakness at an instant
@@vinayaklingwal4872 yeah, but that's because he sees and treats Obito as a giant threat here that Minato thinks only Madara can pose, which is actually a good feat for a 14 year old Obito.
Something I didn't notice before is I bet Obito was really happy when he said "I win" he believed he was able to finally defeat his teacher only to have it slip pass him in the last second. He still saw him as his sensei
He hasn’t mastered his mangekyo at the time and its power was halved since his other eye was implanted in Kakashi. I believe that both his eyes developed mangekyo at exactly the same time.
@@mountainblanc3200 They DID develop Mangekyo at the same time, it was a significant plot point. It became a Mangekyo when Rin died. (I like to think that they evolved separately, but at the same time…like Kakashi and Obito both met the conditions for it, but if one of them wasn’t there at that moment, that eye wouldn’t have evolved.)
Bonus points- obitos grasp at minato was identical to the manner that characters have always grasped at the bells during the bell test. He almost “grabbed the bells”, but… he didn’t.
Minato was so fast that he speed ran life in just 24 years: -Soloed an entire war by himself -Became the Hokage -Married the Hottest Woman on the Planet -Was Labelled as Run on Sight by his Enemy Nation -Was known as "The Yellow Flash of the Leaf" -Was regarded as the Fastest Man in history for many Decades -Had the Highest Academic Score in the History Lead village, not even Itachi could Surpass his Score -Mastered Sage Mode -Defeated Kage level threats as a Jonin -Defeated Anbus as a Genin -Mastered Tobirama's Jutsu even better than him -Created an OP, Iconic Jutsu -Had a Legendary Sanin as his Master -Had a Legendary world renowned student -Defended his Village in his most vulnerable time -The First Person to completely counter Kamui in his First Ever encounter with the Jutsu -Was master of Sealing Jutsu -Became the Ninetails' Jinchuriki -Had an OP and Legendary Son that Changed the World -Had OP Grandchildren -Was always regarded as Konoha's Hero and an Unparalleled Talent by his Master Minato Namikaze ⚡⚡⚡ was truely a GOAT that passed away before reaching his Prime.
It took years of careful observation from Konan to even understand Obito's jutsu and Minato does it in a few minutes of fighting him. The way Kishi wrote Minato's ability and how he crafted this fight made the wait to see him in action worth it. All those years hyping this character up and to pay off massively. Kishi, you are a genius.
To be fair, Minato is a master of space and time jutsu which Obito also uses. Konan is not so she took her time in understanding Obito's technique. Another thing to take note of is that Konan only started fighting Obito when Nagato died.
@@christianramirez9303 they didn't fight if you didn't realise it. don't forget madara was playing with the pawns the whole time and obito didn't re-reveal himself for a very long time. Also Konan didn't have much idea about his kamui to begin with. It all began once nagato died and obito started revealing himself more often.
my favorite part is the fact that a flying raijin mark never goes away even after death, so the fact that minato was able to use it during the war was crazy
Minato is tooooo powerful for any time line at base. And on top of that he has sage mode he is op. They made war arc edo Minato a little naive and took his hands off for the plot or else it would be too easy of a fight.
They figured it out as well. They just didn't have flying rajin to help counter it and they didn't know that the kamui Kakashi had was also linked to the one Obito was using.(they found out later though)
Everyone says Minato is smart for this but literally 2 of danzos anbu who fought Obito briefly also realised kamuis weakness Kakashi and guy and Naruto realised what Minato did instantly as well What took episodes was finding out the true nature of kamui and how it works with pocket dimensions and body parts
@@heroricspiritfreinen38 Forreal! Danzo's lackeys figured out how Kamui worked instantly but unfortunately for them, they didn't have anything in their arsenal to counter it.
wish there were more fights where the characters used their abilities creatively like this. This has gotta be one of my favourite fights in anime because it's so well executed and characterizes the fighters so well with how they use their abilities.
I imagine it would be op genius prince charming who can do almost anything (bordering on isekai level), since he was on a whole other level in his generation and he did get the woman considered to be the hottest for quite some time.
To be fair, for a 14 year old Obito to battle his sensei Minato who is way above his league is impressive on his own... Offcourse, he would took an L against Minato but a 14 year old Obito who only had 1 eye controlling the 9 Tails and able to put up a fight against this beast of a Shinobi Minato is great
@@saeedijaz5108 tbf Hashirama cells were part of Obito body now he needed it since his half body were crushed by a boulder he would've died since the beginning without it
I see why the writer had to have him killed. I truly believe with him around there wouldn’t be a show. He would’ve stopped the Coup of the Uchiha(with Itachi & shisui on his side) without killing the entire clan, and it would’ve also kept Itachi from leaving. That alone would’ve deterred Orochimaru from attacking the village the way he did, the akatsuki would’ve been stopped much sooner, Sauske wouldn’t have left, Pain wouldn’t have destroyed the village especially with Minato, Itachi, shisui, Kakashi, Naruto, 3rd Hokage(he wouldn’t have died), Might Guy, & Sauske around. There’s no way. Naruto & Sauske would’ve still inherited Indra & Ashura wills, and would have Minato & Itachi there with them to still guide them 🔥. He literally has to die to make the show. Crazy
@@kevindap4503 honestly I would take Minato. Those two are by far my favorite characters. I’m taking Minato due to the speed, multi jutsu, and (as people love to forget) he knows the sealing techniques of the uzamaki clan. One thing that could trip him up, is how good is he at getting out of genjutsu? Also I think his stamina/chakra reserves would prevail over Itachi. Would be a monster fight though.
@@KB-co9dm Healthy prime Itachi might give Minato a good fight but Minato is just too fast otherwise. He blitzes everyone how are you gonna even land an amaterasu unless Itachi uses some genjutsu hax it's GG like you said
@@LucidDreamn the second did design the original flying rajin to beat the uchias sharingan it’s too fast for a base sharingan to see and Minato perfected the jutsu
@@tensei7487 Minato is the same guy who can react to Juudara's truth seeker orbs while not even in sage mode. He'd figure something out. Besides, I doubt Obito has nearly enough chakra to keep the perfect susanno up for long periods of time even if he had both sharingan. However, Minato isn't exactly a powerhouse so it'd be an interesting battle.
Actually imagine this scene in real time, not in slow motion... Just that epic teleportation to the kunai Minato has thrown, his reaction time, and the speed of it 🤯
1:25 You could see how they portrayed Minato's speed. He really made a rasengan in just milisecs, and the way he moves his right arms looks faster while the Kunai is still in midair. This dude straight up ignores time. No wonder why monsters Shinobi like Jiraiya and Ay acknowledge him.
I know Minato was supposed to die for the sake of the story. But it would’ve been such an iconic and legendary moment to see his rage at the revelation of Akatsuki‘s goal. To have him plan out an assault against them would’ve been great to see
Like honestly I believe Minato could single handedly beat Pain. Deva path is the issue. If Pain came to the village with Minato as hokage that's wraps for him
@SHANESE Well it wasn't said to have in the show.... & then when minato gave kakashi the marked kunai during the 3rd great ninja war, he said no matter where he is, he will get to him
I love how much Obito underestimated Minato in this. He wasn’t just blind sided by Minatos first flying Raijin Jutsu, but then he starts to brag giving praise to Minato for perfectly countering him and before he even finishes his sentence Minato blindsides him again and hits him with the sealing curse effectively neutralizing him. The best part about this was Tobi was actually a real menace during this part of the story arc and nobody knew his powers or how to counter him but Minato figured him out and effectively defeated him on their first encounter. What’s even better is that this is the first time in the story where we meet Minato and he shows exactly why he’s regarded as such a legend in the Narutoverse.
@Jon Miller Nobody said minato countered Kamui, but he kind of did, since Obito's timespace jutsu that lets him dematerialize is basically just applying Kamui to part of his body.
In a very short amount of time Minato not only just figured out how kamui worked and found hid counter also put a mark on him so he can track him in future and besides that put a sealing to free nine tails. Fast way fast. It could habe taken 2 3 or more episodes for that for any other character
@@kahcunanan nobody puts shikamara in tons of battles with his one move... Minato was hyped as the strongest hokage till shippuden then he was retconned into a 2 move goofball that wasn't that impressive
The fourth mentioned that if he fought the nine tails the masked dude will follow him and mess things up so he had to trust the former third hokage and take this dude down. He also separated control from the nine tails as well.
Uchiha Itachi You do realize in his prime Hiruzen was stated to be more powerful than Hashirama and Tobirama, Dude learned all 10,000 Jutsus, created the Legendary Sanin, and fought in the 3 great ninja wars. Definitely deserved it especially since Tobirama personally and specifically chose him.
@@Topsidemold19 I wouldn't say tortured. More like trapped but it was for a good cause. His anger for humans is way too dangerous for everyone so they had to seal him away or people like Obito/Madara etc could take control over him and reign superiority over everyone
I think it was embarrasing for Kurama to be controlled like that. So when Obito lost control of Kurama, Kurama had to continue to destroy Konoha. He was probably thinking: "What? I wasn't being controlled, i chose to do this 😅" so that the hidden leaf shinobi wouldnt disrespect him ^^ Edit: after all, image is important 😜

@@sergeantassassin3425 Pretty sure he used flying raijin all three times, because he teleported to his kunai the first two times, and then he teleported to his mark he placed on Obito.
he has to use his FASTEST and improved technique of hiraishin FTG2. that's why lord 2nd praise him for developing that since he can't enhance rasengan just like naruto did.
does it have a range limit? I can't remember. Cause if not minato could travel around the world once placing marks then be the world's best delivery guy
At first this fight is just awesome but it gets this tragic and emotional side when you learn this is Obito fighting against his former sensei. Kishimoto seemed to love to put masters against their former students - Minato vs Obito, Hiruzen vs Orochimaru, Jiraiya vs Pain, Kakashi vs Sasuke.
it took Kakashi, Guy and Naruto to find out the weakness of Obito's stance, and even then it was only able to break the mask, while Minato single-handedly analyzed and defeated Obito quickly
It was kakashi who found out about kamuis weakness on their second meeting with obito and if kakashi didn't find its weakness Naruto who was as fast as minato at that point( speed is a natural enemy for kamui) would have ended up dying
@@uchihakiller201 Where did I deny that? I literally said he was young and inexperienced did you not read? If Obito was at the level he was before his death it would’ve been a different outcome.
What a phenomenal fight scene. Short and simple, but that's exactly what makes it great. We get to see how he process and breaks down the situation. That's a basic trope to explain the mechanism behind power/abilities in almost all anime. We always get to see characters thinking or talking during fights scenes. But what sets this apart is how it was written. It's straighforward and precise. Exactly how we see Minato as a character, and one of the traits on why he's almost anyone's favorite. He was in a hurry, and we felt that urgency all through out. But the way he was thinking of dealing with the situation was calm and collected contrasting to the chaos of what's around him. We get to see his thought process and from it, he excecuted a perfect attack without wasting a second. Not an overbearing flaunt of power. Just a pure display of technical prowess. 👏
The best way I have ever heard someone describe this battle was that if this was a fighting game he found someone online who was the most godly mixup fighting style ever. Analyzed it instantly and within seconds obliterated them.
Minato is pretty intelligent, he could still calmly analyze his opponent even during such dire situations. Pretty clever of him to Rasengan Obito plus place a marking seal on him at the same time.
If he actually manages to survive after sealing the other half of the 9 tails we'd probably see more of him using kcm + flying raijin and might actually use a mini tailed beast bomb instead
I don't think that any amount of training would overcome his KCM2 from the war. So his death resulted in us seeing way more powerful version of him than he could've ever been on his own.
@@Reality-Distortion KCM2 gives him more raw speed and power but given enough time he would've figured out the nature + rasengan combo and mastering sage mode and combining it with FTG would be able to compete with the speed from KCM2

Minato would have killed everyone in the village solo if he wanted to
Bro was literally Hashirama on his own era
@@pedroislisteningwhoa there let’s not get too crazy now
@@SkyMach he was feared on all world, and no one could beat him in his time. Im not saying he was as strong as Hashirama, because hes obviously not. Im saying the gap between Minato and the average Shinobi in his time is the same gap as Hashirama and the average Shinobi in his time. Also because the average shinobi in Minato era is much weaker than the average in Hashiramas
I love how Tobi is doing the typical villain monologue and Minato just continues the attack because he is not finished. It's refreshing to see the hero not wait for the villain to stop talking.

well to be fair to the rest of the characters, other than tobirama, minato is the only other character that could use the hiraishin in combat so, obito had the bad insight to forget that minato was the only other shinobi in that moment that was capable of using teleportation
The Flying Raijin has always been such a cool jutsu to me. Easily one of the coolest in the series

Honestly, Minato is the only character in the Naruto universe that doesn't use some sorta crazy plot armor or inexplainable power. He's the definition of true talent. Not some crazy genetics like sharingan, hashirama cells, crazy chakra reserves, etc. He's just really good at being a ninja and that's it.
He has some pretty op chakra reserves. He can do hiraishin by himself
Does Guy count? I'd argue he's the strongest "normal dude" in the series. Just some talent and toooons of hard work.
@@CheekiTikii think guy while ultra powerful, his 8 gates limiting him by death is quite the drawback
naruto doesn't have unexplainable powers and having some exclusive genetics linked to a clan like sharingan isn't a bad thing. Its not their fault if they were born in a clan with special powers
And there are multiple characters that doesn't use plot armor. Honestly I am just tired of whole term so called "plot armor". People be calling anything plot armor that survives which they wanted to die
@@thatpoorlonelyguywhonobody2143what do you mean by “unexplainable powers” ??? Cuz if it’s what I think you mean, Naruto does have unexplainable powers lol!!!! He’s the reincarnation of a direct descendant of a damn alien with GOD powers, just like Hashirama and Madara were. He also had 9 tails chakra.
Unlike Naruto who was an Uzumaki, a reincarnation of ashura, and had the 9 tails sealed in him, Minato, Sakura, Guy Sensei, etc. were normal people from normal backgrounds with nothing but hard work and talent. They didnt have sum sealed in them, didnt have special chakra from a clan, and werent reincarnation of space gods.
Minato is so technical. The most proficient ninja in my opinion. Doesn't waste time at all. Managed to analyze Kamui in seconds, beat Obito, stab Obito, take Kurama off of his control all within seconds. What an efficient ninja. And best of all, no special clan or nothing. Just the best!

He meant "tag" as in get a hit in.

Obito didn't let down his guard, there was just nothing he could do to prevent lord 4th from appearing next to him since he got marked with a teleportation sign, the fight was over when lord 4th touched him.

Figured out Obito's ability and how to counter it in one engagement, and successfully pulled it off by himself in the next engagement - Minato was seriously awesome.
@Jon Miller he figured out it was a teleportation technique and how to counteract that by doing as you said - winning a battle of speed.
@Jon Miller kinda splitting hairs here, I didn't really mean he figured out everything about the jutsu - just that it was a teleportation technique beyond what his was capable of (which is what Minato says when he first sees Kamui). And as for if it was a counter.. I mean, Obito was *about* to use Kamui and Minato countered with Flying Raijin Lvl 2, I doubt the counter would work again tbh but definition wise that's what it was - a counter.
@Jon Miller we're both saying the same things over and over here lol
@Jon Miller you don't need to explain the video mate I know what happened, and yeah I agree he didn't figure out every little bit about Kamui but he definitely countered Obito. He didn't counter the direct full ability of Kamui because Obito didn't use it, either way Minato out classed Obito here and that's why he's awesome.
@Jon Miller ok he gets the point
Besides his strength, speed and knowledge I genuinely think Minato’s greatest strength was his ability to remain calm, it allowed him to do things others couldn’t in the same situation.
Great observation.👍
It's something Kakashi obviously learned from him (due to Minato being his teacher).
We see it in the fight Kakashi VS Pain. The only reason why Kakashi survived for so long was because he kept his calm.
Like just what itachi said "Analysis requires calm"
It's a hard thing to do in this society. Your emotions is also link to your pain.
It's really impressive how he managed to stay calm in this situation. The village is under attack by the nine tails, his wife and son has been kidnapped, and he is battling a guy who claims to be Madara.
Now that you mentioned it, I want to think that being able to remain calm to Minato's extent is want made him so scary when people referenced him in original Naruto.
Minato to Naruto:“even I struggled against him”

Minato has no backstory, he is just good at everything.
Despite this he is humble.
@Redi Beaux we kinda did, but it wasn’t about Minato. We knew his ambitions and that he was a good enough ninja to save Kushina when she was captured.

The most underrated fact about Minato is that he never reached his peak prime times as a shinobi. He was 24 when he died; yet his achievements and powers are iconic, legendary and simply next level. If he had stayed alive and entered his prime years, he might even surpass Hashirama in terms of Hokage prowess.
I was about to tell you to slow down there, but I thought about your comment again and ... It is possible, but it would have been really difficult
Yea you do need to slow down 😂, Hashirama wasn’t a just shinobi, he was a walking tank. This man single-handedly defeated Madara and collected the tailed beast. Minato is my boy but it would take an awful lot for him to catch up to Hashirama level
@@RockDaSandman flying raijin is a stupidly strong move. And he essentially mastered it by 24 years old. Imagine how many more variations of the jutsu he couldve created on the way if he hadnt died? And that's just one move of I'm sure plenty that he has being the genius that he is.
@@RockDaSandman There are still unexplored parts of the flying raijin jutsu. Imagine Minato using them to teleport Hashirama to an alternate dimension. How is he coming back? He can't. You can have all the powers in the world but Hashirama can't teleport. Also, if Minato wanted to, imagine he assigning ANBUs to place his kunais in every village in Naruto Universe. Imagine Minato being able to teleport any part of any village unnoticed. These are just my ideas. The writers can do so much more. Minato was an unexplored beast and if he entered his prime times, I'm sure he'll surpass Hashirama as a Hokage.
@@kyawzawlin1327 that's why the writers will forget flying raijin exists in boruto 💀 even tho it's a simple solution to making any one character effective and useful no matter how high it gets scaled. What do you do about a literal instant transportation technique that doesnt require a special visual eye ability. That technique alone could make naruto extremely useful for a long time if they ever wanted to back track on the nerfs he received.

my favorite part is the fact that a flying raijin mark never goes away even after death, so the fact that minato was able to use it during the war was crazy
Ok
But how does he know which mark to go to.
He left countless of marks throughout his life and how does he knows exactly which to go
All of minato’s fights are so short but badass 😫
Their off screen too
It get Shorted for a reason

And on top of that he has sage mode he is op.
They made war arc edo Minato a little naive and took his hands off for the plot or else it would be too easy of a fight.
Kakashi/Naruto/Guy: takes several fights to figure out Kamui
Minato: Figured Kamui out in one fight
That’s what makes him Hokage
They figured it out as well. They just didn't have flying rajin to help counter it and they didn't know that the kamui Kakashi had was also linked to the one Obito was using.(they found out later though)
He did not, he had a clue but was no near it, he was just too fast for the kamui.
Everyone says Minato is smart for this but literally 2 of danzos anbu who fought Obito briefly also realised kamuis weakness

What took episodes was finding out the true nature of kamui and how it works with pocket dimensions and body parts
@@heroricspiritfreinen38
Forreal! Danzo's lackeys figured out how Kamui worked instantly but unfortunately for them, they didn't have anything in their arsenal to counter it.
wish there were more fights where the characters used their abilities creatively like this. This has gotta be one of my favourite fights in anime because it's so well executed and characterizes the fighters so well with how they use their abilities.

To be fair, for a 14 year old Obito to battle his sensei Minato who is way above his league is impressive on his own...

I see why the writer had to have him killed. I truly believe with him around there wouldn’t be a show. He would’ve stopped the Coup of the Uchiha(with Itachi & shisui on his side) without killing the entire clan, and it would’ve also kept Itachi from leaving. That alone would’ve deterred Orochimaru from attacking the village the way he did, the akatsuki would’ve been stopped much sooner, Sauske wouldn’t have left, Pain wouldn’t have destroyed the village especially with Minato, Itachi, shisui, Kakashi, Naruto, 3rd Hokage(he wouldn’t have died), Might Guy, & Sauske around. There’s no way. Naruto & Sauske would’ve still inherited Indra & Ashura wills, and would have Minato & Itachi there with them to still guide them 🔥.
He literally has to die to make the show. Crazy
man imagine a minato vs itachi fight :,)
@@kevindap4503 honestly I would take Minato. Those two are by far my favorite characters. I’m taking Minato due to the speed, multi jutsu, and (as people love to forget) he knows the sealing techniques of the uzamaki clan. One thing that could trip him up, is how good is he at getting out of genjutsu? Also I think his stamina/chakra reserves would prevail over Itachi.
Would be a monster fight though.
@@KB-co9dm Healthy prime Itachi might give Minato a good fight but Minato is just too fast otherwise. He blitzes everyone how are you gonna even land an amaterasu unless Itachi uses some genjutsu hax it's GG like you said
Well, when in universe the basic tactic for fighting Minato is to *run away real fast* ....
@@LucidDreamn the second did design the original flying rajin to beat the uchias sharingan it’s too fast for a base sharingan to see and Minato perfected the jutsu
Minato really is the goat. Man wasn't scared to fight the man known as Madara.
But he was fighting a 14yo Uchiha

That's very ironic.

@@adcavenger1980 no but how will Minato handle susanoo? Especially one where you can go intangible and spam Kamui shurikens
@@tensei7487 Obito couldn't control that sharingan yet tho
@@tensei7487 Minato is the same guy who can react to Juudara's truth seeker orbs while not even in sage mode. He'd figure something out. Besides, I doubt Obito has nearly enough chakra to keep the perfect susanno up for long periods of time even if he had both sharingan. However, Minato isn't exactly a powerhouse so it'd be an interesting battle.
Man i used to think Obito was almsot unbeatable. But Minato dismantled him QUICKLY. Granted hes about 14 years old in this scene.

Fights like this doesn't have to be long for it to be forever Iconic!
Yep
True
0:46 Idk but imagining all enemies doing that for whole minutes while someone speaks in his mind is so ridiculous 😂
Actually imagine this scene in real time, not in slow motion... Just that epic teleportation to the kunai Minato has thrown, his reaction time, and the speed of it 🤯
Yep 🔥
He is fastest ninja for a reason.
We wouldn’t be able to see anything. They fast
Not to mention forming the rasengan. That still amazes me
1:25 You could see how they portrayed Minato's speed. He really made a rasengan in just milisecs, and the way he moves his right arms looks faster while the Kunai is still in midair. This dude straight up ignores time. No wonder why monsters Shinobi like Jiraiya and Ay acknowledge him.
I know Minato was supposed to die for the sake of the story.
But it would’ve been such an iconic and legendary moment to see his rage at the revelation of Akatsuki‘s goal. To have him plan out an assault against them would’ve been great to see
The show would have been 12 ep long instead of 700
@@habzuchiha105 true, Minato was simply that good
Like honestly I believe Minato could single handedly beat Pain. Deva path is the issue. If Pain came to the village with Minato as hokage that's wraps for him
@@kakashihatake1029 im sorry to say this but if minato were alive, pain wouldn't have dared to infiltrate the hidden leaf.
A spin-off series based on that story line would be epic and would shoot it in top 5 animes to watch in an instant.
Minato : his transportation jutsu surpasses mine
Minato 1 second later : Flying rajin level 2
@SHANESE but it doesn't 😕
@SHANESE Well it wasn't said to have in the show....
& then when minato gave kakashi the marked kunai during the 3rd great ninja war, he said no matter where he is, he will get to him
@SHANESE oh you meant the throw, my bad
Minato : Kaio-ken times two.
Obito : Kaio wha.... **crushed**
Obito: wait what?
MINATO IS THE GOAT HE THOUGHT HE WAS FIGHTING MADARA AND DIDNT EVEN DOUBT HIMSELF
Obito forgot he was fighting his teacher.
In fact, he really was.
DAme i totally forgot he was his teacher lol crazy stuff!
He has been brainwashed by madara
@@sulaimanakeem2030 and madara has been brainwashed by black zetsu the master of manipulation
Obito was his student
I love how much Obito underestimated Minato in this. He wasn’t just blind sided by Minatos first flying Raijin Jutsu, but then he starts to brag giving praise to Minato for perfectly countering him and before he even finishes his sentence Minato blindsides him again and hits him with the sealing curse effectively neutralizing him.
The best part about this was Tobi was actually a real menace during this part of the story arc and nobody knew his powers or how to counter him but Minato figured him out and effectively defeated him on their first encounter. What’s even better is that this is the first time in the story where we meet Minato and he shows exactly why he’s regarded as such a legend in the Narutoverse.
💯
I mean Obito took on the 4th Hokage at age 14-15 and could control the Nine Tails. THAT IS A HUGE FEAT.
@@GamingLovesJohn Minato defeats him in 2 minutes
@Jon Miller didn’t he tho
@Jon Miller Nobody said minato countered Kamui, but he kind of did, since Obito's timespace jutsu that lets him dematerialize is basically just applying Kamui to part of his body.
The most underrated aspect of this fight was Obito knowing Minato's techniques while Minato prepared himself to fight who he thought was Madera.
Ah yes. It's a tradition to re-watch this scene every year
In a very short amount of time Minato not only just figured out how kamui worked and found hid counter also put a mark on him so he can track him in future and besides that put a sealing to free nine tails. Fast way fast. It could habe taken 2 3 or more episodes for that for any other character
well they cant write filler for filler right....right?.....RIGHT?....
Minato is one dimensional... He literally has 2 moves
@@kahcunanan nobody puts shikamara in tons of battles with his one move... Minato was hyped as the strongest hokage till shippuden then he was retconned into a 2 move goofball that wasn't that impressive
Another thing to remember is minato died before he reached his prime, imagine if he had lived a long life he would have become more stronger than ever
@@TheTonytone77 I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

While they're fighting, Kurama is still destroying the Leaf Village.
The fourth mentioned that if he fought the nine tails the masked dude will follow him and mess things up so he had to trust the former third hokage and take this dude down. He also separated control from the nine tails as well.
ok
And the third hokage did nothing he doesn’t deserve to be a hokage
@@heshamaljohani6850 He didn't deserve it, but it was either him or let Danzo or Orochimaru be the new Hokage. Pick your poison.
Uchiha Itachi You do realize in his prime Hiruzen was stated to be more powerful than Hashirama and Tobirama, Dude learned all 10,000 Jutsus, created the Legendary Sanin, and fought in the 3 great ninja wars. Definitely deserved it especially since Tobirama personally and specifically chose him.
Imagine if Kurama just walked away after Minato freed him from Obito's control...
“Good looks bro”
-Kurama
@@goldinthefurnace how? Kurama literally got tortured for years by mito and kushina like what
@@Topsidemold19 I wouldn't say tortured. More like trapped but it was for a good cause. His anger for humans is way too dangerous for everyone so they had to seal him away or people like Obito/Madara etc could take control over him and reign superiority over everyone
I think it was embarrasing for Kurama to be controlled like that. So when Obito lost control of Kurama, Kurama had to continue to destroy Konoha. He was probably thinking: "What? I wasn't being controlled, i chose to do this 😅" so that the hidden leaf shinobi wouldnt disrespect him ^^
Edit: after all, image is important 😜
Minato: *severed Obito's connection to Kurama*
Kurama: *proceed to disappear*
*roll credit*
This fight was legendary . Everytime watching this fight always got goosebumps. What a story !
I love what Crunchyroll is doing with Naruto.

One of the best scenes in this entire series
The fact that Minato does all this with just a single jutsu is amazing
I mean, he used multiple (Fuinjutsu, Oodama Rasengan, Shunshin) , but I'm guessing you're referring to the Hiraishin.
@@BidiguiloChefao Shunshin is the Body Flicker Technique, separate from the Hiraishin, the Flying Thunder God Technique. Both techniques were used in this clip.
That why tobi don't want a fight kakashi when they meet at bridge..when they fight to long,the kamui secret will exposed and tobi/obito will lose easily
@@sergeantassassin3425 Pretty sure he used flying raijin all three times, because he teleported to his kunai the first two times, and then he teleported to his mark he placed on Obito.
he has to use his FASTEST and improved technique of hiraishin FTG2. that's why lord 2nd praise him for developing that since he can't enhance rasengan just like naruto did.
My dude Minato was a literal god. We need a Minato Anime. I'd watch 700 episodes of him
I like how Minato just keeps coming at him while the monologue continues. 😂😂😂😂😂
Fun fact: Minato's sealing Mark's never disappear. You can tell how Minato got to Kushina after the Kurama tried to crush her.
does it have a range limit? I can't remember. Cause if not minato could travel around the world once placing marks then be the world's best delivery guy
Minato himself says this in the show lol
Yeah he lets Obito know when he fights him in his Edo Tensei form
At first this fight is just awesome but it gets this tragic and emotional side when you learn this is Obito fighting against his former sensei.
Kishimoto seemed to love to put masters against their former students - Minato vs Obito, Hiruzen vs Orochimaru, Jiraiya vs Pain, Kakashi vs Sasuke.
To add one to your list, asuma vs ino, shika, cho
Maybe a Naruto vs kawakii. And Sasuke vs Boruto. 🤔
Yeah, that's why it's sad 😢
Student Sensei fight is always sad to me.
dude, if minato is alive, he can basically follows obito everywhere he go 😂
it took Kakashi, Guy and Naruto to find out the weakness of Obito's stance, and even then it was only able to break the mask, while Minato single-handedly analyzed and defeated Obito quickly
It was kakashi who found out about kamuis weakness on their second meeting with obito and if kakashi didn't find its weakness Naruto who was as fast as minato at that point( speed is a natural enemy for kamui) would have ended up dying
@@shion6323 thirdly
Obito was still pretty young and inexperienced here. Of course it became harder as he became more experienced with his power
@@eligreg99 nah minato couldve killed him right then nd there
@@uchihakiller201 Where did I deny that? I literally said he was young and inexperienced did you not read? If Obito was at the level he was before his death it would’ve been a different outcome.
What a phenomenal fight scene. Short and simple, but that's exactly what makes it great.
We get to see how he process and breaks down the situation. That's a basic trope to explain the mechanism behind power/abilities in almost all anime. We always get to see characters thinking or talking during fights scenes.
But what sets this apart is how it was written. It's straighforward and precise. Exactly how we see Minato as a character, and one of the traits on why he's almost anyone's favorite.
He was in a hurry, and we felt that urgency all through out. But the way he was thinking of dealing with the situation was calm and collected contrasting to the chaos of what's around him. We get to see his thought process and from it, he excecuted a perfect attack without wasting a second. Not an overbearing flaunt of power. Just a pure display of technical prowess. 👏
The best way I have ever heard someone describe this battle was that if this was a fighting game he found someone online who was the most godly mixup fighting style ever. Analyzed it instantly and within seconds obliterated them.
Itachi vs Minato too smart guys who wins?
@@twinkiecakes6993 If we are talking end of series then KCM Minato wrecks Reanimated Itachi
Minato is pretty intelligent, he could still calmly analyze his opponent even during such dire situations.
Pretty clever of him to Rasengan Obito plus place a marking seal on him at the same time.
Bro figured out everything in just 2 Minutes 💀😊
Minato is like one of the coolest anime characters in existence. And this scene solidifies that
Sad thing is, we never got to see minato enter his prime. He died way too young. If he is this good early, imagine how powerful he would’ve became?
If he actually manages to survive after sealing the other half of the 9 tails we'd probably see more of him using kcm + flying raijin and might actually use a mini tailed beast bomb instead
I don't think that any amount of training would overcome his KCM2 from the war. So his death resulted in us seeing way more powerful version of him than he could've ever been on his own.
He could mastered the perfect sage mode and use it properly
That would have been terrible
@@Reality-Distortion KCM2 gives him more raw speed and power but given enough time he would've figured out the nature + rasengan combo and mastering sage mode and combining it with FTG would be able to compete with the speed from KCM2
They really nailed Minato’s theme, it’s such a good song and this moment is perfect for it
I REMEMBER BEING SO MIND BLOWN BY THIS FIGHT THAT I LITERALLY SCREAMED THE FCK OUTTA IT WHEN THIS EPISODE AIRED FOR THE FIRST TIME!! MAN THE HYPE WAS REAL THAT TIME.. NO ONE REALLY KNEW WHO TOBI WAS AND IF HE WAS REALLY MADARA....NARUTO AND NARUTO SHIPPUDEN IS A MASTERPIECE!! .....AND THEN THERE CAME BORUTO,, I DIDNT EVEN BOTHER WATCHING IT BECAUSE OF HOW STUPID BORUTO SERIES IS COMPARED TO THE NARUTO SERIES...
