The Byakugan (白眼, Byakugan, literally White Eye) is one of the three great Dōjutsu along with the Sharingan and Rinnegan.[1] He is a Kekkei Genkai originating from the Ōtsutsuki clan,[2] and inherited by his descendants, the Hyūga clan. People who have this Kekkei Genkai can be easily differentiated because from a young age they have mauve white eyes. This Dōjutsu has 2 phases: one passive and one active. In the passive, the dōjutsu is deactivated, that is, it is when his eyes are normal. But when activated it seems as if the pupils are cracking, while the veins around his eyes are marked. The Byakugan is normally obtained from birth, however, on rare occasions it can be awakened. Himawari Uzumaki, a descendant of the Hyūga clan normally has blue eyes, but when she activates the Byakugan her eyes gain the typical characteristics of a Hyūga user.[3] For his part, Mukai Kohinata, a Hyūga descendant of an even more diluted line, awakened the Byakugan only in one eye. For a long time the villages have tried to obtain this power, among them are the attempt to kidnap Hinata by Kumogakure. Currently it is known that the only person who has managed to obtain the Byakugan despite not being from that clan is Ao, who demonstrated that, like the Sharingan, it can also be transplanted, thus obtaining the same Dōjutsu powers. Interestingly, Ao can use this Kekkei Genkai without problems as he has not been seen to witness chakra exhaustion or loss unlike the Sharingan or Mangekyō Sharingan. The main capacity of this eye is based on superior vision, granting a complete sphere of vision, that is, almost 360°, except for the blind spot that is behind the neck above the first thoracic vertebra, however this point The blind can be removed by emitting chakra right into that cone-shaped blind spot. Byakugan users can detect anything around them within a radius of more than 1,000 meters, the greater the user’s skill with the Byakugan, the greater the radius it possesses. This Dōjutsu also presents telescopic vision, that is, the ability of a user to focus on a specific area within the visual field according to the requirement of the moment in which it is used. Chakra Circulatory Systems Chakra Circulation Systems Another notable ability that it grants is to see through bodies, also allowing to see in great detail the Chakra Circulatory System of others (allowing the use of Gentle Fist) and see the Points of Chakra from the body, clearly enough to hit them. It is because of this ability that he cannot define among the shadow clones in which the chakra is distributed equally between the bodies. The Byakugan user can by this anticipate the effect that the opponent’s techniques will have, because at the moment of realization it is possible to see the type of chakra molding that he is using, thus predicting factors of the technique that he will perform as his magnitude, the amount of chakra in it, among others; in other words, by observing the technique being performed he usually understands it, using its effects for himself or dodging it more effectively.

The ability to see chakra granted by the Byakugan is even superior to that of the Sharingan, and in essence is its biggest selling point. The Byakugan also allows its users to identify chakra by distinguishing the specific individuals from which it originates, determine when Genjutsu is being used, and discern certain types of clones of the real person.
