Hokage minato tier upgrade

[Rolgoat]

Here they say that Alive Minato is the strongest shinobi that has ever lived and Madara is mentioned before and Madara and Hashirama are in the forum High 6B with this statement Hokage Minato and Sarutobi should be High 6 B at least

Can you source that interview whatsoever.

Prime Hiruzen keep winning.

As strong as minato, who is stronger than hashirama and madara

that good 2008 vintage , perfect for scaling.

Now, where is that "madara is as strong as nappa" one, this is not over.

Iirc there was a revision in which this statement was either proven to be or likely be a fake statement, or simply not applicable due to when the statement was made. But I’ll let Slayer comment on that.

I thought interview statements are not allowed on the wiki for scaling purposes?

It can be used along with other evidences that isn't interview.

Yeah, this gets a big no-no from me.

I never managed to find a source for it after extensive research. Neither could @MinatoSparkle, and we all know his ass was motivated for obvious reasons.

This actually used to be in his justification, but Sparkle and I decided it was best to remove it until a proper source was procured, which unfortunately never materialized.

With all of that being said, even if that statement was totally legitimate, I'd still fully reject this thread.
Assuming that it's valid, this statement was made in 2008. Meaning that it's a piece of (AT BEST) secondary canon that came before most of Madara, Hashirama, AND Minato's feats, scaling, and lore were largely introduced. Prior to the War Arc, these three had hardly anything I'd call concrete.

Once we do reach the War Arc, it's made abundantly clear that Madara and Hashirama are on a different level in terms of the sheer power of their Jutsu. These two are stronger than full power Kurama with their Megazords. This is Minato vs 50% Kurama, for comparison....

Minato's portrayal is more consistently in the standard Bijū level tier. He's compared to people like the Raikage, Orochimaru, and old Hiruzen, rather than Madara and Hashirama's strongest ninjutsu. All of his lore and feats (mostly lore, cause his ass is featless AP wise, let's be fr) point towards this being his level, and that's ignoring the stuff that can kinda go against even that...

So, yeah, I fully reject this.

[Testarossa002]

The response even says that there are a couple of living Shinobis stronger than him (Minato)
Not one or 2
A couple
Yeah, that's BS
