KAKASHI'S MOTHER CAME FROM THE INUZUKA CLAN

The characters in the world of Naruto don't seem to like talking about their family and lineage. No one bothered to tell Naruto that his father was the Fourth Hokage until he was in his teens. We never saw Sakura's parents in the manga, nor do we know anything about the parents of characters like Rock Lee and Tenten.

The lack of information concerning the family of many characters has led to numerous fan theories that have speculated about the true lineages that were ignored in the story. The most prominent of these states that Kakashi's mother was a member of the Inuzuka Clan.

This is due to the fact that he possesses the ability to summon dogs, uses dog-based attacks (like his Lightning Release: Lightning Beast Tracking Fang), and the fact his sense of smell was said to be better than Kiba's. The last one is especially impressive, due to the fact that Kiba is a member of Inuzuka Clan.
