Minato did encourage them to improve their teamwork afterwards, a message that Obito and Rin took to heart, but fell upon deaf ears with Kakashi. Nonetheless, Minato passed them because they accomplished the goal of the test by working as a team. Unfortunately, Kakashi realised this, only using Obito and Rin as a means to an end to obtain the bells. Minato often held back less against the prodigious Kakashi than with Rin and Obito so they couldn't obtain the bells without teamwork. In the anime, Minato gave the team a bell test at its formation, assigning the three to take the two bells he kept on his person. Upon becoming genin, he and his classmates, Rin Nohara and Obito, were teamed together under the leadership of Minato Namikaze. With his talents soon being recognised, at age 5, Kakashi graduated from the Academy at the top of his class in a single year. Ultimately, he became very popular amongst his peers.

In the Academy, Kakashi earned top grades, earning him recognition as a prodigy and the best of his generation. Seeing what his father went through and determined not to make the same mistakes, Kakashi decided that following the Shinobi Rules must always take priority. The mission's failure had disastrous consequences for the Land of Fire, causing many in Konoha, including the teammates he saved, to vilify him for abandoning his duties. During one of Sakumo's missions - after Kakashi was enrolled in Konoha's Ninja Academy - Sakumo made the decision to save the lives of his teammates rather than complete the assignment. Sakumo was famed throughout the shinobi world, having saved Konoha on at least one occasion Kakashi in particular revered his father. 10.1.6 Naruto Shippūden the Movie: The Lost Towerīecause his mother died when he was very young, Kakashi was raised during his early years by his father, Sakumo.10.1.5 Naruto Shippūden the Movie: The Will of Fire.10.1.4 Naruto Shippūden the Movie: Bonds.10.1.2 Naruto the Movie: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom.10.1.1 Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow.9.5 Naruto Shinden: Parent and Child Day.9.3 Konoha Shinden: Steam Ninja Scrolls.9.1 Kakashi Retsuden: The Sixth Hokage and the Failure Boy.8.5 Konoha Hiden: The Perfect Day for a Wedding.8.4 Sakura Hiden: Thoughts of Love, Riding Upon a Spring Breeze.8.2 Shikamaru Hiden: A Cloud Drifting in Silent Darkness.
