I loved the what if at the beggining :(
It was actually a closer fight than it seemed. If Madara touched Minato a split second faster, Minato would be the one defeated. The reason why I liked this fight is because it resembles real high level fighting. One small moment of advantage can end it.
You liked this fight because there was real skill involved, not just a spam of the same move over and over again
I'm not saying Naruto isn't a hokage level ass kicking machine, just that he's a power house fighter who mostly relies on stamina which make his fights really boring to watch
Bash on Sasuke all you want, but at least with him we get some variety in between emo whines
Yeah. It's like Sasuke is a hard hitting striker that tires out quickly, while Naruto is an extremely resilient but unskilled grappler. We all know which type of fighter is more exciting.
The problem with Sasuke's fights though, is that he pulls stuff out of his ass all the time, while Minato used moves (Hiraishin, Sealing techs) that we all knew he had before the fight started.
I will now cream myself whenever I am thinking of Minato. ;)
Minato is indeed Whitebeard. But to say Whitebeard is Minato just feels wrong. Minato is awesome but Whitebeard is in a division higher IMO.
And to Cal's question "Did Madara lose?", the answer is yes he did. Madara's goal was to take control of Kyuubi and destroy Konoha. Minato beat Madara and forced him to retreat and he removed his control. That is a loss. His goal was not to kill Kushina and Minato. Infact he didn't even manage to kill Minato. He chose that himself. it seems that Kushina would have died just from the extraction even if she was strong enough to survive it. Like she was slowly bleeding out or something and nothing could stop it. But Minato had an out to get rid of the Kyuubi and survive himself. But he chose to sacrifice himself to insure that Konoha would keep the jinchuriki(sp?) balance and to ensure the further safety of his village by not having Kyuubi return free and rampaging later on. So all of Madara's plans was foiled and he was forced to retreat after getting physically beaten. That is a loss to me at least.
we could, but that would be very Kubo of us.
DELETE PLEASE
Huge motherfucking spoiler much? >_>
My bad Arch, deleted. >.<
Anyways, this chapter kinda made me wish Kishi did a whole arc centered around Minato
You mean kind of like the one he is doing now?
Was it an OP spoiler or naruto spoiler b/c both have been out for a couple days I'm curious
DB I consider this more of a flashback then an arc...well let's see how far Kishi takes this, but from this chapter's ending, it doesn't seem like it has much longer
Spoiler: The Bleach series will *not* end according to Aizen's plan
