Okay bear with me on this. Ay, the Raikage as we know is a lightning timer. Ay's top speed = the speed of lighting- 300,000,000 m/s. Ay's speed feats are up for a separate discussion. This same Ay is hurling at top speed towards minato who is just standing still. A few CENTIMETRES before he connects- Minato casually throws up his kunai which spins 1/4 in the air before A touches Minato. Assuming a low end arbitrary speed of HALF the speed of lightining- 150,000,000 m/s at which Ay punches and a 10 cm distance from minato's face- it gives a total of 0.0000000006 secs for the kunai to complete 1/4 rotation in the air. For this to happen-Minato has to flick the kunai from one end of the handle to create rotational torque for the kunai to spin, which clearly did not happen. Also to have the kunai spin at THAT speed (because of such a short time duration), he would literally have to flick it with all his might, which also he didn't.
