I like your way of showing Minato was a person, next to the hero, too.

"When he's twenty four, he takes her dream away. When he's twenty six, he marries her."

Lucky you, Kushina!

It's amazing how you made me love a character in so very few words...
Great work :)

The character build-up is really good. I like how you just don't make OCs off the bat, leaving the readers to interpret who you're describing about. I'm going to assume that the Sarutobi boy is either the son of the Third or Asuma and the Uchiha girl is Mikoto.

Loved the story. :)

:)

A great backstory for Yondaime before Kishimoto deigned to let us on his background and feisty wife Kushina. I also applaud the use of fact number five as a summary. It really had a great impact, gaining my attention and curiosity right away. Add the fact that it was my favorite Hokage, who am I to refuse?

Aside from the fact number five that gained my attention straight away, fact number three is also equally interesting to me. Mostly because of the Academy part where his skill of avoiding his sparring partner's attacks actually became useful. Another one is fact number one, purely for its innocence and symbol of a beginning. Number eight because of Team Minato and the fact that he sees Kakashi as a son shouldn't surprise anyone. Rin was also a nice touch, tying in with number five.

All in all, I really love this ten facts you build up for such an enigmatic character.

Interesting

I think Minato is amazing! :)

ugh. loved this so much. T.T

I'm impressed with how closely this messures up to what ends up being Cannon

Somehow, never thought of Yondaime's parents as grocers. But it makes more sense.

Can you, like, read the future of this manga or something? 'Cause you totally nailed Kushina here even though she technically didn't exist yet when this was published.

Are you, possibly, implying that one of his teammates was Uchiha mikoto. Cause that actually is a possibility... :D

I like. There's bits of subtle humour, sadness, fulfillment and disappointment. The mish-mash of brief scenes capture your depiction of Minato quite vividly.
