Still it's more than enough time for things to change drastically, Part.1 of the manga wasn't even a full year, if I recall correct, and look how much Naruto and his team changed.
Yeah - ON THEIR OWN, mostly. And look at how much Naruto, under Jiraiya's coaching, changed. And for all his faults, Jiraiya is a BETTER teacher than Kakashi. :no:
Considering that Naruto, in 3 years, made less progress than he did in less than 1, by training alone, I find it HIGHLY doubtful that Yonny cound have done any better. ESPECIALLY once he became Hokage. Look at how much stuff Sarutobi had to do - not even time to train his own grandson. And back then, Konoha was at WAR, or at least in constant guerrilla. No way Yonny had enough time to teach much, if anything.
Please, consider the whole picture. It just fails to add up. Looking for an excuse to say Yondaime taught Kakashi something liek that - AND - did his job as Hokage, not to mention took part in skirmishes with the enemies (his reputation came from that, after all) is crazy. He's not The fucking Flash, regardless of his nick - he can't be everywhere at once.
So either Kakashi figured the damn thing out alone - and most likely WITHOUT permission from the 4th - or... well, there's no 'or'. That's the only scenario that makes a shred of sense.
And now for the coup. Kakashi himself admits the Rasengan takes a lot of chakra.
During the bell test, the only info worth a damn he got was that Naruto had a lot of chakra.
How does a supposed genius not connect the dots, ESPECIALLY knowing that Jiraiya also used to be the dead last of his team?
Face it, the whole 'Kakashi knows the Rasengan' bullshit was just a ploy by Bakamoto to belittle Naruto even more and make the Mary Suegan users (in this case Kakashi) look even more badass, despite sucking royally when push comes to shove.
And I guarantee you that Sasuke WILL use a Rasengan, thus leaving Naruto with exactly NOTHING he can call his own.
The problem with this, of course, is that Naruto is going the Harry Potter way - Bakamoto's digging himself in an unescapable hole, simply because Naruto just plain has no way to actually BEAT Sasuke, Rasengan perfected or not. Now that Kyuubi's chakra can be suppressed by the Mary Suegan, he has to rely on his INCREDIBLY SUCKY personal skills, and seeing how Kakashi brilliantly didn't train him when he had the chance, he's lagging behind too much to catch up.
Heck, SAKURA made more progress. Shounen heroes generall do better than that, but Naruto has been getting steadily worse than the rest of the cast, barring Kyuubi intervention. I'm sorry, this just reeks of Mary Suegan love. Don't bother rationalizing Kakashi knowing the Rasengan. It's just another idiotic idea that makes no sense.
