if you were to ask me who was the most disappointing character in the Naruto canon, I would have to say Minato Namikaze
when he was revived for the war it was just one failure after another, he lost his arm to Juubito without the latter having to put much effort into it, he wasn't very helpful in the long run, he was almost instantly replaced by Sasuke in the Juubito fight without doing any real damage to his opponent, he gave Kurama to black Zetsu in an attempt to save his son and he couldn't even challenge Madara.
it felt like Minato had so much potential to be a badass, but he failed in almost everything he did in the war. the only thing he succeeded in that had relevance to the plot was defeat the masked man (Obito) but even that was ruined for me when the fourth databook gave us Obito's age and you realize that when Obito fought Minato he was only 14 or 15 years old with no experience fighting a kage level shinobi.
I do believe that Minato is really overhyped, I don't think he's a match for Itachi, Nagato, EMS Sasuke, Naruto, adult Obito, EMS Madara or double mangekyo Kakashi.
Now before you complain and say I hate Minato, I don't hate Minato, he's in my top ten favourite characters list, so I do like Minato, I'm just disappointed by him.
so which character disappointed you the most? do you agree with me? If not why?
