When the Kyuubi attacked the Leaf Village after being hypnotized by Tobi,
Minato as a last resort separated the Kyuubi into two parts. Recently in the
latest chapters of the manga, it looks like the Kyuubi was separated into
Black and White, as in Evil and Good, or Yin and Yang.

What technique did he use? Did he really split the Kyuubi into good and evil
halves? Or is it just something made up for the split?

What technique did Minato use to separate the Kyuubi into two parts?


Minato used the Death Reaper Seal to seal the Yin half the Kyuubi in him, then
he used the Eight Trigram Seal combined with the 4 Element Seal to seal the
Yang Half of the Kyuubi in Naruto.

From [Naruto Wiki](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Kurama)

> During its attack on Konoha, Minato Namikaze sacrificed his life by
> splitting the fox's chakra into two: sealing the Yang half within his son
> and sealing the Yin half within himself.

Lower down in the page:

> Since Kurama's chakra was too immense to be sealed within an infant like
> Naruto, Minato first used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to separate and seal
> its Yin half within himself and then prepared the Eight Trigrams Seal to
> imprison the Yang half within Naruto

The 4 Element Seal was used so that the chakra of the Nine Tailed Fox would
slowly leak out from the Eight Trigrams Seal and merge with Naruto's own
chakra.
