{"id":"hyuga","name":"Hyūga Clan","japanese":"日向","category":"history","subtitle":"Seeing more does not mean accepting a destiny.","summary":"A Konoha clan tied to the Byakugan and the Gentle Fist. Its split into main and branch houses has personal and political consequences.","facts":[["Dōjutsu","Byakugan"],["Estilo","Gentle Fist"],["Organización","Main and branch houses"]],"lvl":0,"sections":[{"h":"Byakugan and Gentle Fist","t":"The Byakugan lets the user see the chakra system and almost the entire field of vision around them. The Hyūga combine it with the Jūken, the gentle fist, which strikes chakra points instead of muscles. In the Chūnin Exam preliminaries, Neji defeats Hinata by closing her tenketsu and even stops her heart. The clan is not reduced to its eyes: the restrictions and control placed on the branch house shape its members' training.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-80","pos":80},{"h":"Confirmed family ties","t":"Hiashi and Hizashi are twin brothers. Hiashi is the father of Hinata and Hanabi; Hizashi is Neji's father. That is why Neji is their cousin, not their brother. The relationship between the branches comes up in the fight against Naruto, when Neji reveals his seal and his story, and in the letter Hiashi later passes on to him. Neji shows that talent can challenge the branch house's barriers, even if that does not make them disappear.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-105","pos":105},{"h":"Different skill sets","t":"Byakugan, Gentle Fist, Rotation and Sixty-Four Palms are related, but they are not a single ability. Having the eye does not grant every move or full mastery from childhood: Neji learns the Rotation on his own. The Byakugan also has a blind spot at the nape of the neck, which Kidōmaru discovers and exploits during the Sasuke retrieval mission, and Neji overcomes it by calculating his attacks. What each character demonstrates is kept separate from the anime's expansions.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-195","pos":195},{"h":"A coveted eye","t":"Ao, from Kirigakure, has an implanted Byakugan obtained after a conflict with the Hyūga. During the Kage Summit, Fū and Torune, of Root, try to take it from him for Danzō. This shows why the clan guards its secret so closely. Elsewhere, Hinata steps in front of Pain to protect Naruto and tells him how she feels, a choice that has nothing to do with her rank within the clan. In both cases, the Byakugan is at once a military resource and a target for others.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-471","pos":471},{"h":"Hinata and Neji in the war","t":"In the Fourth War, Neji and Hiashi protect Naruto with the Rotation against the Ten-Tails' attacks. When a rain of projectiles falls on them, Neji throws himself in the way and dies to save Naruto and Hinata. Neji says he did it by his own choice, like his father. Naruto breaks down, and Hinata holds him up by reminding him that Neji's life was not in vain. From then on, Naruto is shown beside Hinata.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-615","pos":615},{"h":"The Byakugan in Boruto's generation","t":"Boruto and Himawari have Hyūga ancestry on their mother's side, but that does not guarantee that both will awaken or master all of the clan's powers. In the anime, Naruto takes Boruto to Hiashi to check whether he has the Byakugan, and Hanabi tests him without finding it. Himawari, on the other hand, awakens it on the day Naruto takes office as Hokage, according to the adapted story. Hanabi leads her own genin team and Hiashi appears as a grandfather.","lvl":2,"ep":"boruto-18","pos":701}],"characters":["hiashi","hizashi","neji","hinata","hanabi"],"related":["byakugan","juken","familias-hyuga","uzumaki"],"reference":"Naruto, chapters 78–105: the Hyūga family and the Chūnin Exam.
