Kakashi consistently ranks amongst the top characters in Naruto, and for good reason. He is powerful, mysterious, and humorous, a combination that can make anyone drool. But how was he as a sensei to Team 7?

While Kakashi is often considered a great sensei, on closer observation, you might find many faults with the logic. His greatest mistake stems from the fact that he treated the members of Team 7 unequally.

The two biggest victims of Kakashi’s negligence were Naruto and Sakura. Naruto was admittedly an annoying kid, and both his classmates and teachers were done with him. However, as his appointed mentor, Kakashi should have paid more attention to the kid. Kakashi was also aware of his past as well as the fact that Naruto had next to no one, yet he always pointed out how inept Naruto was.
