This arc is passing much more quickly than I remember. Which is good, cause I can't wait to get to the really good stuff. Also lol Naruto punched Minato and hugged Kushina. Mom's always the best.
Fun fact the reason why naruto met his parents was because kishimoto himself became a parent and realized how important it was for a child to know their parents.
Minato when he was hokage was an absolute monster, he could single-handedly wipe out an entire shinobi platoon in a blink of an eye and was thought to be invincible. There is a reason why when orochimaru attacked leaf village people wished minato was still alive. He was truly an immensely powerful shinobi.
Kamil Koch Oh yeah I remember in the early days when Anko told Lord Third that she wished Minato was still alive. That would've been an incredable outcome to see Orochimaru facing off against Lord Fourth
lol, you wish. Minato could do literally nothing against Orochimaru. Minato is one of the most overrated characters. And his power level is basically a plothole.
Minato could do something against Orochimaru, remember he was called the yellow flash for a reason. He along with Sasukes father, was known as one of the most skilled shinobis in the 3rd great ninja war. So fears by the enemy and admired by comrades.
*Vicki The Robot* No, he couldn't do anything against him. What would he do? Attack him with a kunai or Rasengan? That is not going to work against someone like Orochimaru. And he wouldn't use Sage Mode because he didn't even use it when he could've saved his wife so I don't think he would try to use it against Orochimaru. And he wouldn't have Nine-Tails. Minato as he is is just a cannon fodder killer. That's his main thing. He is never seen to take down someone even a Jonin level. His strongest opponent when alive was Obito who should I remind you was inexperienced teenager (14 years old) driven by emotions partially crippled with only one eye and fake arm and leg that would fall apart once a bigger force was applied to them. Now compare it to someone like Orochimaru who doesn't have Kamui instead he is basically immune to damage and uses nature chakra to power himself up. Yes, Orochimaru is almost a Sage Mode user. Instead of learning Sage Mode and entering it Orochimaru chose to use nature chakra to power up his snake related techniques and his White Snake Form is actually the result of using this nature chakra.
When they talk about the red + yellow = orange thing, I can’t help but picture Yahiko (you know, Main Pain) who has orange hair that looks similar in shape to Naruto’s when wearing a headband.
It’s apparent to those that are insightful that Yahiko is meant to be a mirror or representation of what Naruto could have been. Nice pickup on the detail. Several characters in the series that share Naruto’s fire represent what Naruto could’ve and would’ve been had he not had those that cared about him. i.e Obito, Tendo Pain, Nagato. Harbingers of destruction. Especially with the orange hair. All kind hearted turned to hate or died too early.
I do not agree. Sakura is totaly unable to take charge of her own destiny, while Kushina is perfectly able to do so. Sakura always needs someone else. Then i think that Kushina is way more charismatic than Sakura, which is kinda pathetic.
The funny thing about Minato is he is probably the closest thing to an actual ninja in this show. He didnt have super crazy power level stuff that could level mountains or anything like that he just used a lot of the basic stuff to such a degree and with such cleverness and craftsmanship that he made everyone he fought look like a dullard by comparison. Just hit and run tactics and creative uses of teleportation technique.
schmelzwah Oh but he can destroy mountains and continents. He simply just didn't use his power that way. He prefers espionage and quick finishes more than flashy explosive moves.
Ya I was definitely talking while he was alive pre-KCM. Also I would agree with Itachi to a degree... except he totally uses Susano when in a pinch or Amatarasu to beat people. Minato was more the guy who would walk up to some guy that shoots fireballs from his mouth or lightning from his eyes and would be like... Im just going to stab you with my knife. I always got the impression from him that he was called the "yellow flash" because that is all you saw of him before you were dead, and you can really see that even in his early rescue of Naruto's mom. 3 guys and only the last one even saw him coming the others were wiped out before they even got a glimpse of him.
Erickson Sorto What do you mean how? He has her personality, the same verbal tic ("ya know"), same dream, etc. Plus Kushina even stated that Naruto even has her face. He has his dad's hair, & eyes, but he has her face.
Tbh all naruto got from his dad was his hair color he legit got everything from his mom he got her personality, naive nature, Stubbornness, and strong will etc
I Love how Itachi was programming eyes to do things at specific times, and Minato was programming chakra to things at certain times. Even though it's never actually explained how they did it.
Can we just discuss the fact that minato was a god in his own right nobody else is recorded to have the ability to attatch not just his own spiritual energy to the ninetails seal but his wifes as well and with enough control to make them appear in narutos mind at certain needed parts pf his life
I've been waiting for you to get to this episode for a while, the next few episodes we get lots of back story and more about Madara I'm really excited😂
In japan it’s folklore to describe “fate” as a thread of cotton red as blood, tying everyone together to the people whose fate you have touched; that was the symbolism behind Kushina’s red hair being “the red thread that binded our fates together”. Because minato and kushina were so important to each other’s fate, her hair, the red thread, linked them and brought them together by helping him find her. You don’t get many subtle and deep symbolism like this in naruto, but when it happens it’s awesome.
Naruto' s mom is crazy cool ..... But dam non of Minato's smoothness rubbed off on his son ...... ...... Lol .... I'm trying to use my sharingan to visualize Curtis with hair ...... Lol .... Orange hair 😱
hee3525 actually Minato said he sucks at sage mode but his is a perfect sage like Naruto. When he use sage mode he doesn’t transform to look like a frog just his eyes changed like Naruto.
This is AWESOME! Thank you so much Curtis! You've made me remember how good this show really is! You point out so much that I never thought of before. Thank you for reacting to this series and I hope you're able to finish it with us!
Can't wait for your reaction to Kushina's flashback! So good!! The backstory of Naruto's birth and the attack on the village, :). Some of the best episodes in the series for sure!
It's incredible how suave and skilled Genin Minato seemed to be, seems like he would have destroyed the Genins of Naruto's class no problem during chunin exams
BTW the fact you had orange hair I think is cool my sister recently dyed my hair tips blonde originally from a dark brown colour then we added some blue a month later to use it up and da da ra it made green I actually really like it so I relate to having coloured hair somewhat go coloured hair people!
Fun fact Curtis. Did you know that every Uzumaki besides Naruto has red hair. Naruto's mom has red hair, nagato the main pain is an Uzumaki and he has the dark red hair. And Karin the hot nerd with Sasuke is also an Uzumaki and she has red hair. It's kind of their trait. Also note that every Uzumaki we come across has some form of special ability because of their chakra.
6:59 if I remember correctly, Kushina later became known by a different title than Tomato... something along the lines of the Red Hot Habeñero or something like that 😂
Also fun fact, the First Hokage married and Uzumaki. Which means that since Tsunade is the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Naruto is actually in a way related to Tsunade. Like two different branches connected to the same tree
I’m discovering and watching this comically late. But him saying “I always wondered what his power level was when he was hokage” just about got me lmao. Hopefully you know by now my guy. It’s impressive.
I have oticed a lot of paralels to Naruto's like and his mothers they where both treated as outsiders they where both the jinjuriki of the 9-tails they both had someone crushing over them from the side lines and I don't remember ever seeing Kushina's parents.
1:22 Naruto throwing around mini Spirit Bombs out here. 1:43 I don't think he can just hug it out with the Nine-Tails. 2:07 I guess he doesn't have to worry about that technique hurting him in there? 2:20 Oh god what the hell is this? 2:52 Even now he's rapping. 3:03 Oh, it's mommy. 3:17 "Who's that!?" Find out after this ad. 3:32 Yeees? 3:34 Naaah, can't beee. 3:52 Yes, very scary. I'm shitting my pants. 4:54 Oh, kinky. 5:16 Oh, backstory time. 6:00 Hey, if a pumpkin can become President of the United States, then a tomato can become a Hokage. 8:44 What a great Genin you are. 9:35 What if it happened to be windy though? 11:30 One of us one of us! 12:38 Oh, so THAT'S why he wears orange! Not because they totally ripped of Dragon Ball, like many series have done. XD
Kushina: I'm going to be first female hokage.
Minato: Me too
Lol 😅
Fucked up dub lines at their finest.
Well how do you know minato didnt have a sexy jutsu too
Lol I guess he also wants to be a girl
Lol asholes, he meant the greatest hokage
Tsunade: sorry, I took that spot kushina LOL
My man Minato rocking the adidas jacket on a rescue mission
This arc is passing much more quickly than I remember. Which is good, cause I can't wait to get to the really good stuff.
Also lol Naruto punched Minato and hugged Kushina. Mom's always the best.
probably because there was so much fucking filler
Jackman LeBlanc naruto punched minato. Kushina punches naruto.
we had to sit through filler week after week, i dropped the anime and moved on to the manga because of it
Dont worry guys... the war arc fillers are great... remember MechaNaruto?
It'sdatdude :3 I’m waiting for when he gets to see minato put on the cloak and fuck madaras shit up with the rasengan
Fun fact the reason why naruto met his parents was because kishimoto himself became a parent and realized how important it was for a child to know their parents.

Well you had your parents 'till some age...

I like how the train has become an expected character in each episode.
Minato wants to become the first female Hokage too :i
zengara11 lol I thought the same thing x'D
Hahahahahaa
Hahahah

Kushina's attitude is perfect. 50% kindness, 50% fury. Best female character.
she is kinda like an adult sakura (which isn't meant as something bad)
Christian Zöllner Accept she isn’t in a pathetic relationship...
I do not agree. Sakura is totaly unable to take charge of her own destiny, while Kushina is perfectly able to do so. Sakura always needs someone else. Then i think that Kushina is way more charismatic than Sakura, which is kinda pathetic.
Never that.
Christian Zöllner Sakura married a guy who didn't even pursue her, not even once
Curtis: “I’ve always wondered what Minato’s power level was being hokage.”
You’re about to find Out !!
One of the best reactions of Naruto Ever! I love your videos man
Full reaction with emotional music and everything! I just love it
The funny thing about Minato is he is probably the closest thing to an actual ninja in this show.

Honestly the most "ninja-like" would be someone like young Kabuto or young Kakashi. Ninja aren't supposed to be soldiers.
schmelzwah and being top ten fastest in the verse!
Itachi and minato on point
7:01 at that moment Brock quit been a ninja and moved to the Pokémon world.
Oh god I’m dying pls call an ambulamb 😂🤣
Hahhaha
KUSHINAAAAAA! 🍅😍😍😍😍😍 I swear I love that Naruto took so much after His mom. ❤😍
Erickson Sorto What do you mean how? He has her personality, the same verbal tic ("ya know"), same dream, etc. Plus Kushina even stated that Naruto even has her face. He has his dad's hair, & eyes, but he has her face.
Him meeting his mom is honestly my all time favorite moment in the series
Naruto’s reaction to finally meeting his mom makes me shed a tear every time
By the end of this series, even the train will have a redemption arc
Tbh all naruto got from his dad was his hair color he legit got everything from his mom he got her personality, naive nature, Stubbornness, and strong will etc
I absolutely LOVE how giddy Naruto was this episode lol
I Love how Itachi was programming eyes to do things at specific times, and Minato was programming chakra to things at certain times. Even though it's never actually explained how they did it.
God, I feel like such a softie. Even though I watch for your reactions, these kinds of episodes always make me tear up seeing them again.
Wait Curtis you had hair 🤣, just joking
i'm more surprised he was a ginger
Like ichigo
Curtis kurosaki
Going to happen to all of us one day 😭
Man you’re a rock, I’m crying here and I’ve already seen that episode 4 times
Curtis , if ur sharingan comes back you should use kamui to teleport the train. Just sayin...
nowdays God No Izanami so the train realises what hes doing wrong
Lil' Snake spoilers...
kikoano kikoano he past that
Edwin Lopez Izanami no Izanagi yes
Can we just discuss the fact that minato was a god in his own right nobody else is recorded to have the ability to attatch not just his own spiritual energy to the ninetails seal but his wifes as well and with enough control to make them appear in narutos mind at certain needed parts pf his life
You can tell he really loved this series
finally we reached that part :D
Artten bro your comment for me says 16 hours ago wtf
RECR Calibur same lol
I've been waiting for you to get to this episode for a while, the next few episodes we get lots of back story and more about Madara I'm really excited😂

5:58 Kushina: “I’m gonna become the first female Hokage of this village!”
Minato: “Me too.”
Wait wat 😂
TheCrazyCapMaster it's cracking me up everytime I hear or read this!!xD
Naruto' s mom is crazy cool ..... But dam non of Minato's smoothness rubbed off on his son ...... ...... Lol .... I'm trying to use my sharingan to visualize Curtis with hair ...... Lol .... Orange hair 😱
Minatos Powerlevel was... Jiraiya+ but with much higher speed
Merlin-Hans Hiiekivi it was higher
Minato sage mode is less weaker than Jirayas though but MInato is one of the fastest in the whole Naruto series
hee3525 actually Minato said he sucks at sage mode but his is a perfect sage like Naruto. When he use sage mode he doesn’t transform to look like a frog just his eyes changed like Naruto.
No he's stronger because he has the other half of the nine tails in him so that's stronger than sage mode
Do you even watch the show lol minato is way stronger
4:33 awesome moment... there’s so much joy and love in Naruto’s heart right now that there’s just no room for hatred anymore.
This is AWESOME! Thank you so much Curtis! You've made me remember how good this show really is! You point out so much that I never thought of before. Thank you for reacting to this series and I hope you're able to finish it with us!
Playing this part of the story during the Ninja storm 3 game was so cool
keero kamiya I know right
Naruto's Mom is hotter than all the rest. A firecraker that packs a punch. Don't try anything funny or you'll wish she was Tsunade...
Can't wait for your reaction to Kushina's flashback! So good!! The backstory of Naruto's birth and the attack on the village, :). Some of the best episodes in the series for sure!
This animation was beyond beautiful.
Omg I love naruto's parents no wonder he is so awsome when he has genes like theirs.
I have seen this moment about 7 times. And i cant stop crying when Naruto meets his mother...
The nine tails getting hit by Rasenshuriken reminded me of all the Mozilla Firefox memes from back then lol
"the train don't even have a mama" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was the first episode of naruto that made me cry when I watched this the first time.
We all gotta admit Minato was frickin smooth with the girls
Kushina so hot~
Kushina > tsunade
M.Kanzul Chilmi
boobs
You like tomatoes?
M.Kanzul Chilmi If you have red hair your instently one of the hottest females
I.e. Kushina, Mei, Tayuya
Agreed!
Degis Johnson disagree...
10/10 would watch a prequel series with Minato and Kushina's generation.
The moment naruto hugged his mom, freaking tears.
Kushina's Theme music is probably my favorite piece of music in the Naruto series. The female choir and the exotic sound is so epic!
His mom this scene makes me cry every time
Hey Curtis, this isn't naruto related, but I think you should react to the history of the entire world, I guess. I think you'd enjoy it
He has seen it by himself already
jamiehammell1 dang sorry, I didn't know
@@collinschaferling4380 it’s ok
The only part in Naruto that hits me straight in the feels.
Like one of Tsunade's punches
I love this back story I cry every time cant wait till next episode
That scene always makes me cry so sad
Man this Mom scene in the ultimate ninja storm 3 seemed longer in the game than the anime
Notice the 9-tails shape of Kushina's hair.
*Paraphrase* "Not a force much stronger than a mother and sons relationship"
Train: CHOOOOOOOO
Don't forget who the real daddy is.
It's incredible how suave and skilled Genin Minato seemed to be, seems like he would have destroyed the Genins of Naruto's class no problem during chunin exams
Easily
I hugged myself and made my inner evils go away ,and now I gotta go hug the 9 tails. What could go wrong.
I love this episode where he meets his mom a lil bit of a tear jerker love naruto
Minato is kind of a stalker in this episode haha
PentragonCosplay makes you remind of a certain hyuga lmao
exactly my thoughts!
Gotta love those Uzumakis.
PentragonCosplay 2 years late but he pulled a Hinata lol 😂
I felt so much relief and joy when after all this time and all of these episodes of Naruto, Naruto has finally met his mom.
One of my favorites episode of Naruto Shippuden. Made me cry tbh. Heck it made my eye water a little bit rn.
literally one of my favorite episodes
been waiting for this episode its soooo great along with the next few episodes :)
12:07
Cutest smile i have ever seen
How's that Genin working out for ya, when Curtis said that I laughed so hard.
BTW the fact you had orange hair I think is cool my sister recently dyed my hair tips blonde originally from a dark brown colour then we added some blue a month later to use it up and da da ra it made green I actually really like it so I relate to having coloured hair somewhat go coloured hair people!
There's a very good reason Minato Namikaze's Bingo Book entry read "Flee on sight. DO NOT ENGAGE."
Fun fact Curtis. Did you know that every Uzumaki besides Naruto has red hair. Naruto's mom has red hair, nagato the main pain is an Uzumaki and he has the dark red hair. And Karin the hot nerd with Sasuke is also an Uzumaki and she has red hair. It's kind of their trait. Also note that every Uzumaki we come across has some form of special ability because of their chakra.
One of us no matter where you come from. Need more of that in the USA
6:59 if I remember correctly, Kushina later became known by a different title than Tomato... something along the lines of the Red Hot Habeñero or something like that 😂
Been waiting forever for you to see this!
Naruto at 12:10 rocking around with that doofy smile on his face is the cutest thing.
its finally happening been waiting for these episodes since he reacted to the zabusa fight
Also fun fact, the First Hokage married and Uzumaki. Which means that since Tsunade is the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Naruto is actually in a way related to Tsunade. Like two different branches connected to the same tree
I’m discovering and watching this comically late. But him saying “I always wondered what his power level was when he was hokage” just about got me lmao. Hopefully you know by now my guy. It’s impressive.
to this very day i still get choked up when Naruto meets his mom,
I have oticed a lot of paralels to Naruto's like and his mothers they where both treated as outsiders they where both the jinjuriki of the 9-tails they both had someone crushing over them from the side lines and I don't remember ever seeing Kushina's parents.
Happy 150k Subs my man
Hey Curtis don't forget the Uchiha stone tablet! And also Kimimaro and the Kaguya clan.
12:11 He's just so freaking happy 😆
this made me cry when I first saw this even now it hurts me to watch it
Omg god this voice is so good and smooth!
1:22 Naruto throwing around mini Spirit Bombs out here.
1:43 I don't think he can just hug it out with the Nine-Tails.
2:07 I guess he doesn't have to worry about that technique hurting him in there?
2:20 Oh god what the hell is this?
2:52 Even now he's rapping.
3:03 Oh, it's mommy.
3:17 "Who's that!?" Find out after this ad.
3:32 Yeees?
3:34 Naaah, can't beee.

8:44 What a great Genin you are.
9:35 What if it happened to be windy though?
11:30 One of us one of us!
12:38 Oh, so THAT'S why he wears orange! Not because they totally ripped of Dragon Ball, like many series have done. XD
😂
you know how powerful Minato was?
there is a standing order by all the leafs enemies- RUN AWAY!
Anybody noticed for how many seconds minato was flying while holding khushiya
I like kushina hair,very beautiful!
His mom is beautiful 💕
"train doesn't even have a mama that's why it's so fucked up" lmfao XD
Naruto is so happy he is moving around
lmao best part of this video..."the train doesn't have mom. Thats why its so f*cked up."
Did you notice minato as a kid when he rescued kushina he had on the smooth white and black adidas jacket
I love this guy's humour!
13:40 It's the best line I've ever heard from you hahahahahha You're awesome man!!! and FUCK the train!!!!!!!!!
Imagine being an orphan for 15 years, and suddenly meet your mother....damn feelings
One of the best Curtis’ intro ever
This is the best feeling. In the series. EVER. Naruto deserved this.
honestly, minato and kushina are the best couple in naruto ❤️
"he's got mama in his corner now" had by dying
Can’t wait to watch you react to Might Gai later on
