Rin is not shown at all during the Nine-Tails attack. This leads me to believe that Rin died sometime between the death of Obito and the death of Minato considering we never see her again after Kakashi Gaiden. I'm guessing that we'll eventually be shown a flashback with Kakashi and her doing some kind of mission involving her death sometime after Obito's death

But I also want to note that if this is true, Rin literally died a few months after Obito (Obito died one year before Minato). And that means that Kakashi failed miserably in keeping his promise to Obito about protecting Rin :( And although that may not seem like much, Kishi usually always makes a big deal about the promises that are made in Naruto, and it would be interesting to learn why he would have Kakashi break his dying promise to Obito

What do you guys think?

Good theory, though you may be incorrect. Rin is such a minor figure. She's been ignored since Kakashi Gaiden. She may not have been shown during the Nine Tails' attack on Konoha simply because she wasn't introduced as a character when they did a lot of that animation in the first place.

I wondered always about what happened to Rin but seems like Kishi always keeps the female chars out of the way, somehow.

If you think, if they would've survived, they somehow could have become like Naruto/Sasuke/Sakura, a new gen. of Sannins, lol. (just an ideea that passed my mind)

Wasn't she in the crowd during the Third Hokage's funeral? I remember someone saying that she was there.
Really doubt it, maybe they mentioned her but that would be a bitch slap mentioning her to Kakashi at a funeral
That girl was actually an ANBU member named , she's currently one of Tsunade's ANBU bodyguards. You can see her next to Tsunade in the Invasion of Pain arc in the anime

How old was kakashi during the nine tails attack?
14, he seemed to have a large growth spurt between Kakashi Gaiden and the Nine Tails atack
