I already pointed that out, but I guess you have selective reading. and you think because Itachi was a bad match up for Orochimaru that automatically means Minato would be a bad match-up for him?? you're hilarious xD

Also @Grape, Itachi was 13 when he killed his clan, 18 when he came back to Konoha after Hiruzen died and 21 when his illness killed him in Shippuden.

NO- it survived Choji and Choza and then died to Kakashi's Raikiri. Sure yeah, Orochimaru was having fun but it's not like Madara and Guy where Madara was just standing there and letting Guy hit him. Orochimaru was fighting back, dodging and doing his best to just not die.

I think you misunderstood what I wrote because when I was saying that Itachi made a complete fool out of him and Orochimaru left the Akatsuki out of fear that Itachi would kill him, I wasn't directly comparing the two and all their shit. I was saying that Itachi is eons above Orochimaru in terms of skill, talent and intelligence. And Minato is supposed to have been said to have unparalleled talent and i know this is anime which is home ground for hyperbolic statements but you don't just throw those kinds of statements around at anyone.

And on the roof with Orochimaru vs. Sarutobi, Sarutobi was scared when the third coffin came up because he thought Minato was supposed to be in there and he thought he couldn't handle him.

Considering it took 13 years of training for Orochimaru to even match Hiruzen that was only getting weaker... it's YIKES for Orochimaru. Like Orochimaru was having the two go all out against Hiruzen since they can't really hold back and yeah they were very suppressed because they're edo and they didn't have access to that much chakra to use large scale jutsu and Hiruzen was struggling a little bit but he took care of them no problem after a certain amount of time. In fact it's kinda pathetic of Orochimaru to "lose" WITH HELP. Idrk if he did lose or not. Orochimaru did feel pretty defeated tho.

Even in the Chunin Exams, Orochimaru was kinda scared of the 9 tails. Kid Naruto showed about a glimpse of Kurama and he went out of his way when he was fighting Sasuke to tighten the seal on Naruto. And Minato didn't show that much concern for the ACTUAL nine tails when it invaded. He was more concerned about the nibba controlling him.

Not to mention the entire village was basically like.. "WHERE IS MINATO?! WE CAN'T BE THIS THING WITHOUT MINATO- WHERE IS HE!?"

All Minato has to do is remove Hashirama and Tobirama from the battlefield and just kill or seal Orochimaru and according to Kushina.. HE DIDN'T NEED TO USE REAPER DEATH SEAL TO SEAL KURAMA. The Reaper Death Seal was used primarily to just split chakra which is what Minato did. But he could've used another sealing jutsu he had up his asshole to just shit out and seal Kurama.
