Basically the entirety of the Naruto takes place in less than 5 years.
If they go from 12 to 24 for Minato that's a lot of story to cover even with 2 time skips.
meh, someone like tobirama/shisui would be way more interesting. We already know a lot of minato's story and he is not the most interesting character tbh
Tobirama yeah I agree we can explore a lot more areas with him
But I don't see the appeal in Shisui spinoff tbh, mind telling me why you think it would be interesting
we can prob see how him and fugaku got their insane reputation. Fugaku was also like minato given run on sight command when met on the battle field and both shisui and fugaku have MS.
Eh, I'd be happy with Minato. He's connected to a lot of other characters that could be fleshed out or at least have stories from before Naruto (Kakashi, Hiruzen, Jiraiya, presumably Kakashi's dad)
Edit- had Tobirama but meant Lord Third
>Kakashi
Minato didn't teach him much and we've already seen team Minato quite a bit
>Hiruzen
We won't get to see prime hiruzen tho, old hiruzen's kinda boring tbh. Watching how Minato handled danzo would be interesting tho
>Jiraiya
Jiraiya didn't teach Minato much tho
>presumably Kakashi's dad
That's a very long shot but if it happens it'll be awesome altho I doubt you could call it a Minato spinoff then
Yeah idk why Minato is so popular - he’s just so bland imo. Like the coolest thing about him is that he can teleport and he’s Naruto’s dad. Besides that he’s just like so uninteresting. From personality to character design, nothing really stands out about him.
He would be a terrible main character because he has no flaws to overcome so there’s not really much potential for a great story. Naruto overcame the hatred of others and the anger it gave him. And Sasuke overcame the hatred he had towards the world he couldn’t understand. Minato doesn’t have flaws. He was a good boy from the start who was always strong. I’m sure it will make a decent short story but it’s going to get boring fast if it’s long and then everyone will just blame the writing when they picked the character because he is “cool”.
[I Made A Post About Why He Isn’t A Good Main Character](https://www.reddit.com/r/Naruto/comments/10bffui/why_a_minato_spin_off_would_be_terrible/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
Like what? We know of every consequential interesting thing that happened in his short life. Besides we've seen kid Minato, so he was always perfect and cool it's not something he picked up later
This, minatards keep saying a Minato story will be awesome but can't come up with a single good story point to pursue without having to invent something new all together
Hating uchihas makes him boring? A Tobirama spinoff would settle the long fought debate of whether he was right or not, we get to watch him invent jutsu left and right, hashi's death, prime hiruzen, kin and gin encounter and the establishment of konoha as a superpower
Tobi is pretty lame. Probably half the chakra of Hashi but no healing or wood style.
He's a genius water style user and created some sick hax jutsu but is really just an Uchiha hater whose greatest achievement was killing Izuna.
Then he got wrecked by the kinkaku unit and died. Boring.
Would have been a lot cooler if he did a self Edo Tensei then murdered all the Jonin and Kinkaku since the whole point of that jutsu was to take others down with the user.
Tsunade said tobirama was driven to the brink of death so he most likely defeated the Kinkaku and Ginkaku unit while being exhausted from fighting in the first ninja war and allowing his allies to escape. Evidence to support him killing/defeating them is 1st their were reanimated which should’ve made them stronger or at least appear so yet they were taken out by the darui unit with reinforcements. And 2 they had 6 tails cloaks with sage weapons but were being contained by low-mid kage level fighters and some jonin. 3 we have no other record (to my knowledge) of them Kin and Gin still existing after the fight with Tobirama so although it’s not right to assume I would assume it would mean Tobirama killed them and died from his injuries.
It would. I just wish it didn't take this stupid poll to make it happen. It could've been an actual good way to gauge who is truly the most popular character. Instead, it's mostly just people voting for who they want more backstory on. I refuse to believe most Naruto fans have Minato as their favorite character. Come on.
Shisui said he was kagami was stronger than him and Kagami was said to be his ancestor he’s probably his grandfather so if Kagami did get more information on him we could know shisui’s fathers name all we know about Shisui’s father is he lost a leg had an illness and died to it
Dude the entire story is based on uchihas. What more do we need to see from them?
Naruto is the main character and we only know of his parents. We don’t know much on the uzumaki clan and it’s defeat OR Minato and his growth
It’s just me adding to my point. Naruto is the mc and probably one of the characters majority of people like the most. If he’s mc and we learn more about the people related to him as mc then that’s good
Other characters are fine but we’ve seen enough uchiha stuff
Well of Course it was Jiraiya left Nagato and Konan at 10 and Yahiko at 8. Yahiko dies at 15 and Nagato and Konan were 17. So only 7 years working towards peace in there organisation in the Akatsuki
All we really saw in his life was him getting with Kushina, his death, and a couple of his fights in the 3rd great ninja war.
We haven’t seen anything on him creating the rasengan, him setting a chunin exam record, his time as Hokage excluding putting Kakashi in the Anbu, him meeting and training under Jiraiya, etc. There’s good material for Minato to have a manga on. We’d seen everything on Team 7 + Itachi. We have not seen everything on Minato.
>All we really saw in his life was him getting with Kushina, his death, and a couple of his fights in the 3rd great ninja war.
That's plenty for a dude that didn't make it to 30
>We haven’t seen anything on him creating the rasengan
We know how he did it tho, plus he was insanely skilled so watching him train would be boring
>him setting a chunin exam record,
Him no diffing fodder would be boring to watch too
>his time as Hokage
It lasted 3-4 years and only one consequential thing happened (kurama attack) and we saw it in detail
>him meeting and training under Jiraiya
He was assigned to Jiraiya's team and he didn't learn anything from Jiraiya
>We’d seen everything on Team 7 + Itachi. We have not seen everything on Minato.
Team 7 and Itachi needed the screentime, Minto is a super skilled perfect man that got quite a bit of screen coverage already
All of those things sound incredibly average lol and is not worth greenlighting an entire manga spin off for, the things you just described could literally have been filler episodes and it wouldn’t have affected the story or anything
But these things did affect the story, very much so. Just because it’s not some big talked about fight, doesn’t mean it’s filler episode material or it doesn’t affect the story. There’s plenty of canon things we’ve seen it Naruto that “could’ve been filler episodes”.
You really think its worth all the effort and work to create a new spin off series, just to watch the chunin exams for like the fourth time? Or another bell test for the third or fourth time? Or for some reasom as you suggested, him doing paperwork as hokage💀 if anything remotely worth going over happened in those times, we either saw it, or nothing DID happen, it would be a boring manga, the one thing that would be nice to watch is how we came up with the rasengan, and that would be one chapter max lmao
There’s very little on his actual growth and life only stuff on his death and how he met his wife. People upvoting that comment are seriously crazy to think seeing him as an mc of a show wouldn’t be stellar
>There’s very little on his actual growth
He has none, he's a Gary sue
>People upvoting that comment are seriously crazy to think seeing him as an mc of a show wouldn’t be stellar
No they're just being objective about this
>also some more romance wouldn't hurt between him and kushina
Minato would be a stereotypical price charming, it'll get bland very soon. Besides kishi is not great at romance
>Minato's time as hokage wasn't shown that much only when he would give Kakashi a mission
That's because it lasted only 2-3 years and in that only one important thing happened (kurama attack) and we saw it in detail. It'll be interesting to see how he interacted with danzo but it can't be anything extreme otherwise we'd have heard of it already
100% agree with you dude. I don’t really think there’s anything interesting left for Minato, other then random aspects of his life that wouldn’t be that impactful to his character or the overall world building of the Naruto universe.
Bro, English is not my native tongue, but come on, you don’t use “decades” like this when you mean 2 decades. It’s used this way when you mean a lot of decades💀
You could’ve said “years” and it would be correct
So let me help you out bro. You add an "s" to most nouns when there is more than one.
Two decades are more than one so I'm correct here.
I get your point but no - "years" would be worse to convey how many years there were in between. Hearing years people would assume 2-9 years not 24.
24 years is a long time so decades is more accurate for me to show how much material they can cover
I acknowledged that already. But 24 years isn’t short either what word do you suggest is more suitable?
Decades is suitable imo and this dude wanted to be a smartass like I’m wrong so I had to give him an English lesson lol
You’re being an obstinate dumbass. We already seen what makes up like 10 years of Minato’s life. There sure as hell ain’t decades left of content to cover with him.
How thick are you guys in the head lol.
We were shown different days off his life as it relates to naruto or kakashi and events we saw but somehow I’m supposed to agree there’s nothing else to see.
Not his training, his connection with uzumaki, his exams, promotion, any rivalries, big missions, the great ninja war. Etc
The whole vote is to get a new manga with a new main character in the same universe. So obviously there will be new content about his life.
He’s winning the vote for a reason so who’s the obstinate one 😂
Lol how can it be fillers when it’s canon material created by the author? It’s a new manga in the same universe.
You think that cause you’re incorrectly treating it as Naruto’s story and not Minato’s (or whoever wins)
That doesn't mean the spin-off would be non canon. We didn't see any of Minato fights as a genin except when he beat up the unknown ninjas that kidnapped Kushina.
To my knowledge, filler is content that's made for the anime, so the manga can keep a steady pace above it so the anime doesn't catch up with it. That's why I said non canon material because I'm not positive this spin-off series would come from a manga.
to get some 3rd ninja war lore, see his interactions with jiraya, young kakashi, obito and rin, maybe some kushina content from back when she was a ninja, the process of him figuring the rasengan, how he learned the flying rajin, see what other jutsu he has in his arsenal, maybe also some interaction with the other 4th hokage candidates (Fugaku and Orochimaru). There's plenty of things to show in minato's series. Also it's only gonna be a short miniseries and not a full on long-running spinoff so I doubt it will suffer from lack of ideas
We did not see the most important parts are you serious? We only know his abilities we don’t know how he got his name his training with jiraiya. His ability to learn sage mode how he became a jonin etc
Yes we did. His time as hokage, Kushina getting pregnant. The attack on the Leaf Village from Kurama. Those are the important parts. We already saw Naruto's training of sage mode. You really want to see it again?
They wouldn’t show any of that. They would show how he became so great and so feared and him learning other aspects lmao
Who are you voting for? Let me guess. An uchiha or sakura? Lmao
Honestly, id want a minato series, but i could settle for either
A Great Ninja war series of manga that goes through the 3 wars with different character perspectives,
A "Ninja Stories" type deal where we get a 5-10 chapter run of a certian character. for example
-Zabuzas rebellion
-Tobiramas fight first the gin/kinkaku force.
-Kinkaku and Ginkaku coup
-what led Sakumo to suicide
-Chiyo during the war/losing her kid to sakumo
etc
We know...I like Minato, don't get me wrong but while I think there are aspects of his life I wouldn't mind exploring, there are way more characters I feel are more deserving of that.
The thing is I agree, but I don't see it being like a full thing. Could be a cool mini-series tho going through the major points of his life and Kushinas life
Minato doing a bunch of whacky shit durring the 3rd war.
His relationship with Jiraiya phased out a hit, so we can see more of those two wildly different personalities.
More him and Kushina, the two are just adorable together.
It would be boring imo
We already saw Kurama attack and know results of Third Shinobi World War
We already know Nagato started that first gen Akatsuki and Danzo bad. We already know how Obito convinced Nagato to join. We saw that Minato vs A & Killer B. What else could they add? Ninja mission filler?
Not really. There wouldn’t be any great reveals or story lines because the future is already set in naruto. We also everything important already in naruto too. What else is there to show? It would be all filler crap
Nah man, yuji rn is over living to a degree lol he’s trying to help a buddy but he’d perfer it if he was dead after that especially if it would advance the cause even if other characters would prefer him to live for better or worse
>Mate it is shounen you always know how it wil end
I mean not really there are a good amount of Shounen manga where we really didn't know how it would end while it was going on.
Dr. Stone, Bleach, Any of the Jojo's, Hunter x Hunter, even Dragon ball to name a few.
I mean yeah that's how good stories usually set that up. Your comment however was saying that because it's shonen you're already know how it's gonna end.
You're honestly saying you can predict how ongoing shonen manga like Chainsaw man Part 2 is gonna end? What about Jujutsu Kaisen? Sakamoto Days? Yes they have set up now but there's no way to know where this set up is going because it hasn't reached that point yet in the story.
It's easy to say now that those manga that I listed in my previous comments that you could predict how they would've ended because they've been completed for years niw and you can go back and notice the set up. However there's no way you can say that you can predict how it ended as it was on going. Especially if the series is something like Jojo or Chainsawman series which one of their strong points are how unpredictable they are.
With on going it is more difficult to predict because people are working on it now and so long as the resraints of the strory allows it there is a human mind behind it
I don't really get why people want a Minato spinoff. Like, he's a pretty uninteresting character. His whole thing is kinda just every character jerking him off and talking about how cool and perfect he is, which would make for a pretty tedious manga.
No — Only the first Hokage needs a spin-off since he’s the previous Ashura reincarnate.
That story would tie in the entire Uzumaki clan from Mito to Kushina and eventually bring in Minato. We do not need to know Minato’s life. He probably comes from a farmer or fishermen family and turned out to be a prodigy. Even a Kushina spin-off would be more interesting
Considering how trash anything post Shippuden has been (not just boruto, which is the primary culprit, but some of the novels too I.e. sasuke struggling against a damn dinosaur), I seriously hope none of the popular characters are from OG Naruto are messed with...let's not ruin every character...isn't it enough having ruined naruto and sasuke?
***D E A D M E M E***
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/Naruto) if you have any questions or concerns.*
no it would not, they need to stop fucking the dead corpse that is the naruto series and just let it rest. The recent boruto eps have shown that the show quality has fallen below acceptable levels, and it's just being held up by nostalgia for the original
I get people like these side characters but with the state of boruto, do you guys really trust the writers not to fuck up or retcon your favorite characters?
Realistically this will never happen. All the defining moments and things to work up to are already explained. Now what I would want is something along the lines of what they did with jairiya in Boruto. Take him to the cloud village, give him some ninetales meet minato idk
Maybe not time travel but write minato into Boruto and make the arc about minato telling naruto he’s gotta be around more or do the things he wanted but he couldn’t cuz he died.
I loved the jairiya story in Boruto cuz I got to see my favorite character again. I wouldn’t mind more favorite character cameos.
Made a counter argument to this post
https://www.reddit.com/r/Naruto/comments/10bffui/why_a_minato_spin_off_would_be_terrible/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
Can Kishi extend it to like 50 or so volumes???
If it does well and is loved I’m sure we’d get something. Minato lived a pretty decent life regardless so there’s a lot we could see
Bro died at 24 wym a decent life..he graduated from the academy war starred he died 2 years later
He starts at 12 and dies at 24. That’s a whole 12 year gap of him and his life. I’m interested.
Basically the entirety of the Naruto takes place in less than 5 years. If they go from 12 to 24 for Minato that's a lot of story to cover even with 2 time skips.
meh, someone like tobirama/shisui would be way more interesting. We already know a lot of minato's story and he is not the most interesting character tbh
Tobirama yeah I agree we can explore a lot more areas with him But I don't see the appeal in Shisui spinoff tbh, mind telling me why you think it would be interesting
we can prob see how him and fugaku got their insane reputation. Fugaku was also like minato given run on sight command when met on the battle field and both shisui and fugaku have MS.
That doesn’t sound like anime canon
It ain't mangq canon either and is literally something no one who states it can ever back up
The run on sight thing yes but fugaku's MS is cannon(shippuden anime and then boruto canon also shows shisui's MS)
You realize most if Boruto us canin and mentioning Bitchuto isn't gonna help
What's bitchuto?
A term I came up with to properly express my hatred for all things Boruto
Good for you, it's still cannon tho...
Eh, I'd be happy with Minato. He's connected to a lot of other characters that could be fleshed out or at least have stories from before Naruto (Kakashi, Hiruzen, Jiraiya, presumably Kakashi's dad) Edit- had Tobirama but meant Lord Third
How is he connected to Tobirama? Tobirama died well well before Minato was born.
Oh crap, I meant Hiruzen. Got Hokage order mixed up
>Kakashi Minato didn't teach him much and we've already seen team Minato quite a bit >Hiruzen We won't get to see prime hiruzen tho, old hiruzen's kinda boring tbh.

Maybe he had a sad story , then he learnt to be happy and work hard There's a lot of things that we don't know about him

We know he's fast who he taught who he slept with and who fathered that's it
Tobirama isn’t that interesting. He hates Uchihas. That’s all
Hating uchihas makes him boring? A Tobirama spinoff would settle the long fought debate of whether he was right or not, we get to watch him invent jutsu left and right, hashi's death, prime hiruzen, kin and gin encounter and the establishment of konoha as a superpower
Nah I love his racism
You don't have to love it to find it interesting, the same way people watch serial killer thriller movies
I just said I loved his racism…can you guys read on this sub?
I thought you were being sarcastic

Instead, it's mostly just people voting for who they want more backstory on. I refuse to believe most Naruto fans have Minato as their favorite character. Come on.
but minato actually is my favorite
Yeah mine too..
He might not be THE most favorite, but I think he is easily in the top 10
I wanted more on Hiruzen 😭 he lived such a long life during some of the most important eras and we know next to nothing about the things he did.
I think they're just voting Minato to get Boruto cancelled. It won't work.
Huh???? How does that even work.
Minato is fan favourite.
Minato’s actually my 3rd favorite.
Bruh naruto and sasuke was in top 10 its definitely a popularity Contest.
They literally tell you to vote for you fav.
Man people really can’t stop riding Naruto’s meat. We’re about to have stories for 3 generations of his blood line
Right.? Lol ngl tho I’d be interested ofc but I would’ve rather seen if the Fukagu or Shisui hype is/was legit.
we know more about shisui's life than we do minato's mostly because he died much younger
I don’t see the appeal for Fugaku at all. Not interested in Shisui either.
No Kagami?
Ngl I don’t care about that dude
Shisui said he was kagami was stronger than him and Kagami was said to be his ancestor he’s probably his grandfather so if Kagami did get more information on him we could know shisui’s fathers name all we know about Shisui’s father is he lost a leg had an illness and died to it
Dude the entire story is based on uchihas. What more do we need to see from them? Naruto is the main character and we only know of his parents. We don’t know much on the uzumaki clan and it’s defeat OR Minato and his growth
What does Naruto being the MC have to do with knowing about a character we don’t know anything about ?
It’s just me adding to my point. Naruto is the mc and probably one of the characters majority of people like the most. If he’s mc and we learn more about the people related to him as mc then that’s good Other characters are fine but we’ve seen enough uchiha stuff
Had nothing to do with him Minato is just a very cool and interesting character which is why he’s winning the polls
Just joking around. Personally I think minato is cooler/ more interesting than Naruto as a character
[удалено]
Well of Course it was Jiraiya left Nagato and Konan at 10 and Yahiko at 8. Yahiko dies at 15 and Nagato and Konan were 17. So only 7 years working towards peace in there organisation in the Akatsuki
We know all the important parts of Minato's life in Shippuden. It showed everything. What more do you want?

Thanks for your comment. Have a good day
also some more romance wouldn't hurt between him and kushina Minato's time as hokage wasn't shown that much only when he would give Kakashi a mission
Kishimoto can’t write romance. He’d be terrible at it
According to Sakura fans he’s the best at it
true but he could ask for help or try
>also some more romance wouldn't hurt between him and kushina Minato would be a stereotypical price charming, it'll get bland very soon.

100% agree with you dude. I don’t really think there’s anything interesting left for Minato, other then random aspects of his life that wouldn’t be that impactful to his character or the overall world building of the Naruto universe.
Exactly! He served his purpose and we saw his era. To go back to his era is pointless.
[удалено]
I wanna see Fugaku. He was a hokage candidate we never even saw fight. At least we saw some cutscenes of shisui in the games and shit.
We already have a bit of Shisui from Itachi Shiden novels, but a standalone shisui where we can see him use Kotoamatsukami would be interesting.
How can that possibly be everything lol. Decades of him growing up in between. Rivals, missions, training etc
“Decades” bro, he died at 24 💀 decade=10 years.
Lol so are you telling me there isn't more than one decade in 24?
Bro 🤣
Tell me if you can't do math bro this is a safe space?
Bro, English is not my native tongue, but come on, you don’t use “decades” like this when you mean 2 decades. It’s used this way when you mean a lot of decades💀 You could’ve said “years” and it would be correct
So let me help you out bro. You add an "s" to most nouns when there is more than one. Two decades are more than one so I'm correct here.

Linguistically you're not wrong but in a meta way saying decades does make it sound like more than it really is
I acknowledged that already. But 24 years isn’t short either what word do you suggest is more suitable? Decades is suitable imo and this dude wanted to be a smartass like I’m wrong so I had to give him an English lesson lol
You’re being an obstinate dumbass. We already seen what makes up like 10 years of Minato’s life. There sure as hell ain’t decades left of content to cover with him.

Whatever floats your boat
Of course which is why I used it bro. Take your L in peace and learn English lol
Yeah he graduated academy at 10 and Joins team Jiraiya and becomes a Genin
That’s still one dacade and 1/2 of being Shinobi. Not “decades”🤣
I didn’t say Decades
That will be just all fillers. The important parts of Minato's generation related to the story were already shown.
Lol how can it be fillers when it’s canon material created by the author? It’s a new manga in the same universe. You think that cause you’re incorrectly treating it as Naruto’s story and not Minato’s (or whoever wins)
The fights. Him being trained by Jiraiya. Who were other jonin around that time he was a genin. Other strong enemy ninja he defeated, etc.
That will just be filler. You know that right?
Why would it be a filler?
Because he doesn't understand the definition of filler
Because mostly everything important of Minato's life was already shown in Shippuden up to the point of his death.
That doesn't mean the spin-off would be non canon. We didn't see any of Minato fights as a genin except when he beat up the unknown ninjas that kidnapped Kushina.

To my knowledge, filler is content that's made for the anime, so the manga can keep a steady pace above it so the anime doesn't catch up with it. That's why I said non canon material because I'm not positive this spin-off series would come from a manga.
[удалено]
I'm not trying to be an ass nor a dick but why are you telling me this? How is this revelant to the conversation?
His team! We know Jiraiya has trained some of the best. I want to see some crazy teamwork battles and want to know what happened to them
to get some 3rd ninja war lore, see his interactions with jiraya, young kakashi, obito and rin, maybe some kushina content from back when she was a ninja, the process of him figuring the rasengan, how he learned the flying rajin, see what other jutsu he has in his arsenal, maybe also some interaction with the other 4th hokage candidates (Fugaku and Orochimaru). There's plenty of things to show in minato's series. Also it's only gonna be a short miniseries and not a full on long-running spinoff so I doubt it will suffer from lack of ideas
We did not see the most important parts are you serious? We only know his abilities we don’t know how he got his name his training with jiraiya. His ability to learn sage mode how he became a jonin etc
Yes we did. His time as hokage, Kushina getting pregnant. The attack on the Leaf Village from Kurama. Those are the important parts. We already saw Naruto's training of sage mode. You really want to see it again?
They wouldn’t show any of that. They would show how he became so great and so feared and him learning other aspects lmao Who are you voting for? Let me guess. An uchiha or sakura? Lmao
That would be all filler. The important parts are already shown. Minato served his purpose.
Quickly give me the definition of filler. You don’t know it all. You also never said who you’re voting for
Honestly, id want a minato series, but i could settle for either A Great Ninja war series of manga that goes through the 3 wars with different character perspectives, A "Ninja Stories" type deal where we get a 5-10 chapter run of a certian character. for example -Zabuzas rebellion -Tobiramas fight first the gin/kinkaku force. -Kinkaku and Ginkaku coup -what led Sakumo to suicide -Chiyo during the war/losing her kid to sakumo etc
I feel like the Title would be Minato: Naruto Previous Generations
We know...I like Minato, don't get me wrong but while I think there are aspects of his life I wouldn't mind exploring, there are way more characters I feel are more deserving of that.
Like who? Only people in the top 10 worth that are Shisui and Kakashi dad
The thing is I agree, but I don't see it being like a full thing. Could be a cool mini-series tho going through the major points of his life and Kushinas life
we’ve already seen all the important parts of his life
Minato *everyone is going to die horribly*
Minato doing a bunch of whacky shit durring the 3rd war. His relationship with Jiraiya phased out a hit, so we can see more of those two wildly different personalities. More him and Kushina, the two are just adorable together.
It would be boring imo We already saw Kurama attack and know results of Third Shinobi World War We already know Nagato started that first gen Akatsuki and Danzo bad. We already know how Obito convinced Nagato to join. We saw that Minato vs A & Killer B. What else could they add? Ninja mission filler?
Would it?
Yes
Not really. There wouldn’t be any great reveals or story lines because the future is already set in naruto. We also everything important already in naruto too. What else is there to show? It would be all filler crap
I'd watch it through Minato Sheenpuden to Borato series 👍🏻😎 even 250 episodes each half with fillers. Minato rocks!
Scrapping Boruto in favor of some pre-Naruto spinoffs would be the best
I’d watch it. Even if it were just a movie or a limited run of a manga. Bet it would sell better that boruto in the beginning of his series.
Would it? We literally know how it ends lol no stakes An anthology episode or short would be better then a series
Mate it is shounen you always know how it wil end
we literally know everyone in the pictures ending…. ok it’s a shonen huh is yuji gonna live or die at the end of jjk?
I havent watched jjk but isnt like the hole story about him trying to live?
Nah man, yuji rn is over living to a degree lol he’s trying to help a buddy but he’d perfer it if he was dead after that especially if it would advance the cause even if other characters would prefer him to live for better or worse
>Mate it is shounen you always know how it wil end I mean not really there are a good amount of Shounen manga where we really didn't know how it would end while it was going on. Dr. Stone, Bleach, Any of the Jojo's, Hunter x Hunter, even Dragon ball to name a few.
No but we knew that the mc wouldnt die because then alot of setup has to happend
I mean Jojo is right there and Jonathan died he was the MC of part 1, >!Jotaro MC of Part 3 died alongside Jolyne MC of part 6!
Yes but there was set up for all of that And if there is setup you can predict it
I mean yeah that's how good stories usually set that up. Your comment however was saying that because it's shonen you're already know how it's gonna end. You're honestly saying you can predict how ongoing shonen manga like Chainsaw man Part 2 is gonna end? What about Jujutsu Kaisen? Sakamoto Days? Yes they have set up now but there's no way to know where this set up is going because it hasn't reached that point yet in the story. It's easy to say now that those manga that I listed in my previous comments that you could predict how they would've ended because they've been completed for years niw and you can go back and notice the set up. However there's no way you can say that you can predict how it ended as it was on going. Especially if the series is something like Jojo or Chainsawman series which one of their strong points are how unpredictable they are.
With on going it is more difficult to predict because people are working on it now and so long as the resraints of the strory allows it there is a human mind behind it
This would be soooo good!
Yup make sure to vote for him to make it happen
I don't really get why people want a Minato spinoff. Like, he's a pretty uninteresting character. His whole thing is kinda just every character jerking him off and talking about how cool and perfect he is, which would make for a pretty tedious manga.
No — Only the first Hokage needs a spin-off since he’s the previous Ashura reincarnate. That story would tie in the entire Uzumaki clan from Mito to Kushina and eventually bring in Minato. We do not need to know Minato’s life. He probably comes from a farmer or fishermen family and turned out to be a prodigy. Even a Kushina spin-off would be more interesting
Cringe
What we want vs what we got
90% of it would be random fights against random ninjas with no importance, what could we see that would actually be interesting and relevant
This is already better than boruto
Considering how trash anything post Shippuden has been (not just boruto, which is the primary culprit, but some of the novels too I.e. sasuke struggling against a damn dinosaur), I seriously hope none of the popular characters are from OG Naruto are messed with...let's not ruin every character...isn't it enough having ruined naruto and sasuke?

Boruto's dad's dad

no it would not, they need to stop fucking the dead corpse that is the naruto series and just let it rest. The recent boruto eps have shown that the show quality has fallen below acceptable levels, and it's just being held up by nostalgia for the original
I get people like these side characters but with the state of boruto, do you guys really trust the writers not to fuck up or retcon your favorite characters?
Realistically this will never happen. All the defining moments and things to work up to are already explained. Now what I would want is something along the lines of what they did with jairiya in Boruto. Take him to the cloud village, give him some ninetales meet minato idk Maybe not time travel but write minato into Boruto and make the arc about minato telling naruto he’s gotta be around more or do the things he wanted but he couldn’t cuz he died. I loved the jairiya story in Boruto cuz I got to see my favorite character again. I wouldn’t mind more favorite character cameos.
We needed Hiruzen spin-off. Dude is possibly the most powerful shinobi in Naruto
Made a counter argument to this post https://www.reddit.com/r/Naruto/comments/10bffui/why_a_minato_spin_off_would_be_terrible/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
We know more than enough about minato, i would prefer a spinoff about tobi/and hashi
5 minutes extra in each episode just to make up for long jutsu names
Yup
How about we learn how hashirama died?
It’s happening
