Minato vs. First Hokage
 

Who would win? The Fourth Hokage? Or the founder of Konoha? (If this has already been posted somewhere just ignore this thread and go to the other one :mrgreen:)
TELL ME REASONS.

I would choose Minato.

When the Third Hokage was fighting Orochimaru; and Orochimaru used Kuchiyose Endotensei (Summoning reanimation), Sarutobi made sure that the third would not rise. A reasonable guess is that the third is Minato, which means that Sarutobi counted Minato as the most challenging to fight of all the other Hokages.

First Hokage. Minato can't do anything if Hashirama creates a forest. And he also has Bijuu control, which even Gamabunta can't stand up to.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

Correct, he can pretty much block the Transporting Kunai with his forest. The first is a close range fighter, from the jutsu's I've seen and that have been reported, the First however is long range.

first hokage

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

Your reason?

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

Minato. With his lightning speed he could beat him.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

1st Hokage for reasons above.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

I believe the 4th would win, you've seen the 1st's speed, he is no match for the 4th

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

FINALLY!!! Geez, nearly everyone was against me. Thank you Shikamaru! :mrgreen:

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

My poor first thread... it's dead :(

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

Hashirama would pwn Minato, people think he could speedblitz Hashirama but he needs to use his kunai to move that fast, and if Hashirama sets up a huge forest, Minato will have to jump for his life to survive, and if Hashirama uses Bringer of Darkness, Minato can't see and therefore is defenseless against Hashirama.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

firts hokage becase's better :mrgreen:

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

1. Grammar fail...
2. Yes, and Hashirama's going to stand there and watch him do that.
3. And...? Hashirama can control Bijus. Also, he can use Wood Jutsu on the summons.
As for Bringer of Darkness - You THINK he can suppress it but can he truly do that?

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

first would win because the powers he have no one had only yamato but hi dont have so stron first even defeat madara who hwve mangekyo own and his brother he would win the fourth hokage,the third ist the fourth hokage.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

The Fourth would win, the youngest of the Hokages, is always the most powerful.

but the Fourth has too many abilities, to overlook.
so, he has FTG, which will allow him to dodge attacks,
the rasengan.
sealing jutsu.
Death Reaper Seal, etc.
I say fourth.
but would be a close battle.

but --_--"
I accidentally voted for Hashirama, I wanted to vote for Minato....................

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

The whole "the next generation surpasses the other" is incorrect, otherwise Tsunade would be stronger than Hashirama, Tobirama, and Hiruzen but she's not. And Sakura aint gonna beat Jiraiya.

Flying Thunder God requires open space to throw a kunai, but if Hashirama makes a forest there won't be necessary room to travel quickly enough to kill Hashirama.

Rasengan is not all that powerful, Kabuto, who is inferior to Hashirama, tanked it, and it is a close range attack that Minato will never get a chance to use.

We don't even know what his sealing jutsu are, we can't assume he has Five-Pronged Seal or anything like that.

Reaper Death Seal requires you to grab your opponent at close range, an impossible task for Minato, and in the end, both people die, meaning Minato would tie at best.

Also, if Hashirama used Bringer of Darkness, Minato can't do anything to defend.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

v-valentien posted in interveiw about masashi
and he said the strongest dead ninja was minato and maybe sandaime(sarutobi/3rdhokage)

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

If Minato shows more moves then he can win, but right now he can't with his shown abilities.

Re: Minato vs. First Hokage
 

well obviously if the writer of the series says he can win
then he can win
and he is extremely fast and can teleport
he'd easily be able to get behind hashimara and rasengan him
so yes minato is better
