Naruto: Is Tobirama Faster Than Minato

Even though Naruto has been completed, the series is still responsible for some of the biggest arguments in anime today. This is a testament to Masashi Kishimoto’s remarkable storytelling abilities and word-building techniques.

Even though the series is filled with many incredible fighting techniques and Jutsu, speed remains one of the biggest factors determining a fight in the shinobi world. Speed remains one of the pivotal weapons in a Shinobi’s arsenal.

The importance can’t be overstated in a world where one second could be the difference between a completed hand sign. The Naruto series has several incredible speedsters like Minato, Tobirama, and Naruto. However, the debate about who the fastest character is in Naruto between Tobirama and Minato remains.

The term “Hokage” is an elusive title given to only the most elite shinobi in the village. Both Minato and Tobirama were termed geniuses, earning the title with little dispute in their time. Tobirama proved himself to be one of the most powerful shinobi in the shinobi world due to his I.Q. and battle sense. He created numerous techniques. However, his Flying Thunder God Technique made him revered as one of the world’s fastest shinobi. 

The technique allowed Tobirama to mark a target and teleport to its location. He perfected the technique to the point where he could react faster than some Sharingan wielders. Before becoming Hokage, Minato was already one of the fastest shinobi in the hidden leaf. This earned him Yellow Flash, a title known throughout the five villages.

However, he didn’t stop there. Minato went on to perfect the Flying Thunder God Technique, turning it into his signature move. Minato became practically unstoppable as he bested many speedsters, including Ai (raikage). While Tobirama is a genius in Ninjutsu, Minato is clearly the fastest of the two. During the fourth great ninja war, Tobirama admitted that Minato was faster than him. While Tobirama is no slouch, he pales compared to the yellow flash.
