_Kakashi Hiden_ falls under the category of c-canon (continuity canon) because
while it was written by a different writer, Kishimoto supervised and approved
the novel. _Kakashi Hiden_ occurred before Kakashi took office as the sixth
Hokage. Kahyo is supposed to be executed but Kakashi reduced her punishment to
life imprisonment and made her the new warden of the Blood Prison.

In the epilogue of the novel, Kakashi received a letter from Kahyo and Naruto
is spreading rumors about Kakashi and Kahyo's relationship, which Kakashi
denies. The last statement of the novel says, "Springtime is around the
corner", which is, in Japan, a metaphor usually used to refer to a blossoming
romance, but others interpret the last statement as a reference to "change" or
think it refers to the actual spring season.

In chapter 700 of the manga, after Kakashi has stepped down and Naruto has
become the seventh Hokage, everybody is shown alongside their partners (except
for Rock Lee who is shown training with a kid, and Ten Ten who is at a shop).
But Guy and Kakashi are not shown with their "partners". It isn't even clear
if they do have partners. Kakashi also says that he is going on a tour or
something.

So, is Kakashi in love with Kahyo from _Kakashi Hiden_? Did he end up with her
and settle down with her? If he did, how does it work when Kahyo is serving
her life imprisonment as a warden at the Blood Prison? and why aren't they
shown together like the other couples in Chapter 700?

question
naruto naruto-gaiden
Is Kakashi in love with Kahyo from "Kakashi Hiden"?


As said in the _Kakashi Hiden_ novel, Naruto spreads rumors about Kakashi
falling in love with Kahyo.

But this is inaccurate because Kakashi once denies it and could not have a
relationship with her. This is because if he had a relationship with her, he
would be sent to the Blood Prison along with being removed from his position
as Hokage. This is because she is serving a life sentence in the Blood Prison.
