i definitely think naruto was mental amps.
The problem is that both when he first unlocked KCM and when he supposedly got a mental amp, he was compared to the Yellow Flash
Sure I'm not trying to scale naruto to hokage minato
Raikage was the only one so fast madara had to block with susanoo and could not dodge.
I don't think him choosing to use Susanoo proves he couldn't dodge. He was able
to react to KCM2 Naruto physically, I really doubt he had trouble with Ay's speed.
He even complemented his speed.
Cause he'd still be one of the fastest shinobi Madara has seen
The rest people he stated that he purposely got hit by their attacks just to show hashirama's face. He also made a note to say tsunade is slower than the raikage
You know he also used Susanoo to block Tsunade right
You are theory crafting here. This is just a statement of fact from Minato acknowledging the situation. Nothing is implied beyond that.
This isn't a theory when he literally implemented a plan that takes this factor into account right after. What do you think FTG level 2 even is? It's a response to Obito phasing through Minato when he simply attacks head on.
The thing you’re failing to acknowledge is that outside of FTG usage, Minato has failed to tag Obito in every instance he tries.
I'm aware? That's literally the reason Minato tried a different approach.
This statement from Minato, again, is just a statement of fact. There is no implication carried that says Minato held back his speed.
No it's not, he said he needs to time his attack precisely, then he follows this up by timing his attack precisely, attacking just when Obito thinks he's won
Remember, right after this statement, Minato acknowledges he “could” very well lose this exchange: “
This is all going to be over for one of us in an instant!” — Which actually implies the opposite of what you’re saying.
If he doesn't activate FTG at the right time he could lose, and he technically says it'll be decided by
who's faster, and Minato won, so...
どっちの攻撃が相手より一瞬速いかで決まる!
Again, you are theory crafting here. Nothing here is implied to mean he held back his speed. Nothing he showcased implies that either. Kishimoto is writing Minato to understand and recognize Obito’s abilities and fighting style, similarly Konan. Nothing more.
Kishimoto made Minato understand and recognize Obito's abilities and fighting style, then craft a solution. I don't know why you keep ignoring that FTG level 2 is a blatant follow up to everything he was talking about in the previous page. If his plan was simply to slightly outspeed Obito and tag him with the Rasengan before Obito touched him, why did he throw the FTG kunai behind Obito?
This isn’t relevant. Obito had no need to extend his arm and he would’ve beat Minato in this specific exchange sans FTG, which is what is shown and implied.
He needed to extend his arm to touch Minato
So yes, Obito’s Combat Speed and Movement Speed would be Relative to “Slightly” Faster than Minato’s based on this and using a scan where his arm is extend vs Obito, who didn’t require his arm to be extended and simply needed “touch”, is a bit disingenuous, don’t you think?
Not really, at worst it's a 50/50 on whether he was still extending his arm after he saw Minato disappear, but either way his body was absolutely still moving forward given that he was mid air from his leap forward.
