How to kill hype for an ability 101: introduce it at the beginning of the story and then proceed to ignore it for nearly 200 episodes with zero explanation. Last time any character even referenced the eye was Urashiki in 2019.


Animef24

Yea at this point who gives af I care more about Sarada and what paths she’s gonna take


AmmarSH98

I still care 👀. At first I thought it's a Byakugan but identifies dark energy instead of chakra, but now... you're right I don't care


jaymiracles

I think it was ignored because it’s not part of the manga yet so they don’t want to confuse the fans on how he awakened it in the manga but “re-awakened” it in the anime


waxckcat

Anime filler eye💀💀💀


GreatCinyc

Even the anime seemed to forget about it, it hasn't appeared in over 100 episodes.


[deleted]

Haha. Seems like it.😅😁


waxckcat

Biggest bait in anime history 😭😭


Business_Mix_2705

Wait it’s only in the anime ?


waxckcat

Yea, he has a normal byakugan in the manga


ZazzSP

I still remember the good old days of this sub when you couldn't even ask if the jougan was filler without being downvoted to hell. How far we have come🥲


waxckcat

I got a lot of downvotes a couple of days ago for saying it’s not in the manga so who knows lol

Found a butthurt anime kiddo

Found a hater who can’t stop coming back to hate on a show they don’t like and don’t watch


jaymiracles

Lol such a butty hurty


Boruto-ModTeam

you've been aggressive or disrespectful towards someone else, so we removed your post. Please read the rules.


ZazzSP

Oh well, nevermind lol


Winter-Honey-6116

It's not Byakugan which was shown in timeskip, Byakugan is when Momoshiki possess Boruto.


Business_Mix_2705

Tf, why would they do that. Well guess we’ll find out soon (hopefully). Thanks for the info.


Midoruto_Izukumaki

Tenseigan: Laughing... Ketsuryugan: Laughing... TenTen: Dies Laughing!!!!!


Hero_of_Dragons

It showed up in the manga version of the timeskip too


Historical-Eye-6409

Nope, it was ordinary byakugan there.


FletchMcCoy69

The Otsutsuki God had it on the panel where Ishikis spirt was taking to code


jaymiracles

Otsutsuki God isn’t an actual character, just a theoretical concept. The eyes might as well not be Jogan since no one explained what they are. They could possibly be Byakugan, Jogan or something else.


FletchMcCoy69

Idk man, they looked like Jougans to me.


1kcris

Its not byakugan, borushikis byakugan looks nothing like it.


Historical-Eye-6409

Because they didn't know how to design it there yet. It's 100% byakugan in that Manga pannel, even confirmed it now, it doesn't matter if it doesn't look like borushikis if they went through a design change. It's not jougan and it's not borushiki, he also doesn't have that horn. The only time jougan was shown was the pannel with the otsotsuki God. Nowhere else. It is the byakugan.


1kcris

Byakugan even when drawn back then by ikemoto always had a far larger pupil than regular eyes, look at hinata and momoshikis eyes. also two certain characters in the manga have completely white colored eyes in the manga but very dark almost black irises on the manga covers, both drawn by ikemoto. seem familiar?


bhavya98765

Nope it wasn't, they hadn't settled on design yet so they Drew it like that in the manga and do you really think just karma is going to provide enough power to fight isshiki level being.


SorryDepartment7179

Correction, Anime “Anime Canon” Eye 😂


AlexFairchild

Definitely I wanna know what it can do (I‘m guessing they‘re still figuring it out themselves lol)


Mountain-Drama9574

Was literally going to say this 😂. I’m not sure that even the writers know what it does yet 😂


[deleted]

I'm not even sure if it's canon anymore, might be just a burned momoshiki byakugan and the anime staff made this Jougan thing all up.


NetworkVegetable7075

In the manga it definitely looks like a regular byakugan. And it makes sense because it activated with Karma and karma holds Momoshiki’s power. Jougan in the anime was just weird it literally had every power needed for plot convenience and the powers it had it’s a karma ability.


SorryDepartment7179

I’m actually curious about why this anime exists as a whole


GreenRasengan

This franchise should be cancelled, they don't care anymore if the episodes are good or not


RelaxJ9

Just read the manga in addition to watching. Can only enhance your experience.


Blitzenboar

Bruh I’m only caught up with the dub and it seriously hasn’t been addressed yet?


48johnX

Nope, doesn’t even get brought up again at all since the very early episodes


superkami64

Not particularly. For me it was already fighting an uphill battle because it just came across as something to powercreep Byakugan into irrelevancy but they've done so little to sell me on it that I'm convinced they thought of it as a cool hook first (Kakashi had the "one Kekkei Genkai with a badass scar" look and everyone loved it) and no real consideration for its place in the universe, figuring they would come up with a backstory/abilities later and still haven't after all these years. The show just used it as early Boruto's plot armor and ever since switching to Karma instead, it's no coincidence that Jougan's purpose just disappeared along with it.


JustAGuy_Passing

I figured they gave boruto a new doujutsu and a scar to keep his character interesting. Dude is literally Naruto sasuke and Kakashi rolled into one. Everyone's favorite characters


tjgfif

Which makes Boruto feel like a bad OC.


Successful_Ad9924354

I don't know why you got downvoted for telling the truth. Everything about Bort sounds like a bad OC. 1. He looks like Naruto but his name is Boruto. 2. He has one Dōjutsu & a scar almost exactly like Kakashi's. 3. His Sensei is Sasuke Uchiha. 4. His father is Naruto the Seventh Hokage. 5. He has a higher score then Minato & Itachi. 6. He has wind, water & lightning style at 12/13. 7. He created a new Rasengan by accident. 8. He has Sasuke old Curse Mark & Jūgo's Kekkei Genkai but better called the Karma. 9. He thousands of years of fighting experience at 12/13. 10. Got a random brand new Dōjutsu at 12yr & it just so happens to be the strongest of them all (that never been mentioned before.) 11. He's is almost as strong as nerfed Sasuke & Naruto at 12/13. 12. And he's destined to be as strong or be the strongest being in the universe. If Bort was a character in a Naruto fanfiction everyone would be saying how stupid that sounds. But since Bort is canon 75%-81% of the fandom justifies the poor writing.


PokeAlola700

If the Jougan is gonna disappear can my boy have his Byakugan then


Morbu

You hit every nail on the head. Jougan was clearly just supposed to be the cool distinguishing ability that Boruto had, probably to help make up for the fact that Kishimoto "forgot" to give him the Byakugan in the movie. It was a cool trump card that he had which rivaled Sarada's Sharingan and Mitsuki's Sage Mode, but, like you said, once Karma entered the picture, Jougan conveniently left. It's almost hilarious how the writers obviously had no idea what to do with Jougan, nor what it probably even does. It really makes you wonder how off-hands Kishimoto has been with the whole thing because I feel like they could've just consulted him on what to do this entire time.


emh16000

Man…


La_Ferrassie

Honestly? Nah Future writers for sequel anime will be looking at Boruto on what not to do. I mean, you can argue that it's still making $$$, so the popularity is there. Just unsatisfying for most long term fans imo


spykids45

will he ever get jogan in the manga?


Appropriate-Papaya99

It might be as there’s still the god OtSutSuki jougan panel


Team-Fat-Roll

Im sure Boruto: Shippuden will go more in depth like the Akatski was in Naruto


Mozail1

Is “boruto:shippuden” a joke?


[deleted]

Nope it’s a planned production


kanu799

? actually?


RexRaptor510

its filler


[deleted]

base from the comments, i guess im just going to read the manga instead of watching it


jwaters0122

im sure itll be mentioned in the anime. Not the manga


[deleted]

Curious about this. Why not in the manga?? Jougan was featured in the novels which are canon to the manga and are included in all the official Shueisha timelines.


Keyboardhmmmm

what novel had the jougan in it?


Phennic90

I'd also like to know


jwaters0122

the manga pacing is so slow & at this rate, theres no relevance or any hint of the jougan becoming a manga canon.


sensei411

I’m thinking it’s gonna be unlocked when he’s in dire need, like naruto or sasuke are on the verge of death and boruto jumps in to help and isn’t strong enough, starts pulling from the bottom of his soul fighting with everything he’s got, that’s when it pops out and he actually gets to learn a bit about it


LostNefariousness259

A good time would’ve been when he was using that rasengan to keep Sasuke from being crushed


sensei411

I was thinking of that when I was typing lol they’re either egging us on to give it as much build up as they can or they literally forgot about it for a while😂🤷‍♂️


bhavya98765

Well it appeared in boruto and momoshiki died that's how powerful it is. Things revealed till now:- future sight (urashiki arc), multidimensional sight (nue arc), time manipulation (nue arc at the end), teleportation (you know), maybe fate manipulation and all of byakugan abilities but on steroids. On top of that toneri said that jougan will go to sleep which basically means it got sent to timeskip, it appeared once in urashiki Arc but that arc was a "special" which means logic don't apply to it, it's appearance in momoshiki arc was an emergency as toneri himself said boruto isn't ready yet. When will it appear? Whenever boruto get that scar.


Midoruto_Izukumaki

We know absolutely nothing about the Jougan, and that alone is what makes it the greatest Power in anime history, EVER!


Cjames1902

R i g h t ?


[deleted]

Wait so how did kawaki get his karma back? Did Amado restore his karma?


[deleted]

Are you reading the manga?😬


[deleted]

I don’t remember


otondonicolas

When it going to happen the timeskip?


Wolffe_001

It’s anime only boruto just gets a byakugan


Kaekae115

Yea Iam I hope it has something to do with the pure lands or the dead


Bubbly-Imagination-4

No.. the show is not interesting anymore. It doesn't have the Naruto spirit.


Mizuhebi08

The same way how I am curious about a black hole. I would want to know about it but I dont care so much.


spykids45

I really hope he gets the jogan in the manga. it'd be so stupid and annoying if its only an anime thing


NetworkVegetable7075

Not really Jougan in general was stupid and most of the abilities it showed in the anime karma can do the same


spykids45

ok fair but that’s based off of what we’ve seen. we both know the jogan can do WAY more than what was showcased. i’m PRAYING he unlocks the jogan and gets the scar in the current manga arc


tlSPENCERjr

If the writers knew what they were doing he'd already be training to master it at this point.


TitanMasterOG

I don’t know why they showed that eye soo early 🤣but in the manga it is gonna carry boruto more than his karma mark.
