[Discussion] The Hatake Clan

[Shichi]

is Kakashi the last of the Hatake clan or are there more of them in the Leaf

 

[Steaktacular]

We never had much information on Kakashi´s family (other than his father) so he was probably not part of a clan, same goes for Minato Namikaze.

It´s not all clans within the NV

 

[Moe22]

Kakashi said everyone who's important to him already died. I assume that applies to his clan. Perhaps it wasn't a big clan to begin with, or they all just died off. I'd like to think Kishi would mention it if there was a "Hatake Clan massacre".

 

[Anduril]

Yes there is a HATAKE clan. Only thing is the members have not been shown on the screen yet.
Same goes with Minato, Namikaze clan exists too.

Because until recently I did not think there were any more members of the Sarutobi clan only for them to line up in the war.

 

[Keyblade Master Roxas]

Strange i never actually put thought into this. Maybe Kakashi will talk more about his family, if it is even a clan at all, which I doubt it's not a clan at all.

 

[Anduril]

Every single person in Naruto with a surname has a clan. As the clans name is used as surname in Naruto.

 

[Mattbart]

I like it to be more mundane. Just something basic they bread out no males. Died in wars. Old age. No one to avenge he's just alone now

 

[MLX]

It must be a family. Not a clan.

Their never was a Hatake Clan it's just a plain family. Same goes for Sakura.

Actually, good point. I was thinking Konohamaru's dad died, but any of those guys could be his dad LOL!

I think it is very likely that he was part of a clan as this would possibly explain where the chakra blade he had came from and where his extreme levels intelligence and power without any immediately apparent kekkai genkai (such as Byakugan and Sharingan).

He got his blade from his father. Sai has one that looks like it. I guess Sai's from the Hatake Clan too?

He's smart because he's smart. You can't pass down intelligence through DNA.
He's strong because he's a talented prodigy who trained to get where he is.

 

[veggetta13]

I don´t think intelligence is a K.G. I mean wtf? Shikamaru must be the show´s monster if that´s so

Last time I checked I didn´t make any hand seals before taking the smart choice. Just an opinion

 

[guiltybird]

Yeah, I think Hatake is just a family name, similar to Namikaze, Haruno, etc. They don't interbreed or specialize like the Uchiha and Hyuuga do in order to make a clan .......

 

[hamer34]

they all commited suicide

 

[yoshimitsu]

Actually, good point. I was thinking Konohamaru's dad died, but any of those guys could be his dad LOL!

Konohamaru is Hiruzen's grandson and Asuma was Hiruzen's son. Hasn't been confirmed if Konohamaru is Asuma's son although I can't recall how Konohamaru took the death of Asuma..

Konohamaru and Kurenai's kid are both Sarutobi of course there are still some.

Although Sai has a similar looking blade , it does not use chakra and more importantly the chakra coming from the sword is white. The fact that Kakashi received the blade from Sakumo raises the question of 'Where did he get it from?' and also the question of 'Why is Kakashi's chakra white similarly to Sakumo?' These two questions can be easily answered if we assume that Kakashi was part of a clan , most likely the Hatake clan.

He's smart because he's smart. You can't pass down intelligence through DNA.

There have been many articles and studies done to test and attempt to find which gene is for intelligence (such as

You must be registered for see links

) and the conclusion many have reached from these studies is that the neuron connections required to think and learn can be improved by genes giving them a type of "intelligence" so to speak as they can think and learn better than most.

He's strong because he's a talented prodigy who trained to get where he is.

I will admit that Kakashi has trained an awful lot to get to where he is now, however your genes can vastly improve the way in which your physical grow works - for example myself, I am too lazy to do sports but thanks to the athletic build that I inherited from my mother I can run, jump etc. above average and when I do exercise I build muscle strength and stamina much faster than many of my friends.

So veggetta13 , you fail to see how genes of intelligence from Shikamaru's father could likely have been passed down to him?
I do not think that it is just by chance that both Shika's are the two most intelligent characters in the manga so far.

I agree with you, same as Sarutobi clan, we saw several of them during the Juubi transformation
