Byakuugan is all-seeing, Sharingan can predict the opponent's moves and allow the user to copy everything perfectly. Including Jutsu.

Byakuugan is good against several people at once, or for spying, seeing through fog, in the dark, etc.

Sharingan can't be beaten in single-combat. Lady Chiyo said so herself, against two or more it's not as effective as Byakuugan, but a skilled user can use it to equal or greater effect. It also allows copying handsigns, etc.

EDIT: Sorry I posted this in the wrong section, wasn't paying attention. Could somebody move it?

I chose Sharingan cause it can do a lot of things..Kakashi was able to copy over 1000 jutsus using it

Yeah, but that's Kakashi. You have to be extremely skilled with the Sharingan to copy Jutsu that perfectly.

But also, masters with the Byakuugan can predict their opponents moves as well, like Neji.

hey, why chose? we've got two eyes, why not have both ?

That would seriously screw with your brain... If you had one normal eye and one Byakuugan eye, you'd be extremely disoriented. Probably be sick. One Sharingan eye, and one Byakuugan eye, you'd fail... You could use one at a time, like Kakashi, but that would make things extremely difficult.

I dunno... It sounds like a good idea, but once you think about it, it's not all that great.

just a joke mate!

Well, it got me thinking. Quite hard, actually... I honestly don't think such a thing is possible, but if a ninja did master both... Easily the best ninja of all time.

IF KAKASHI HAD BYAKUUGAN TOO!?
That would be epic.

That's true, it would be like watching a RTS battle game, predicting everything from a wide scoped, areal view, but hey.

I'm sure I just posted something about this but I obviously forgot to hit post

Anyways I said something along the lines of I knew I'd be the only one who voted for Byakugan :d I find it to be a really interesting power and the ability to cut off someones chakra as a result is mind blowing. The 360 field of vision and capacity to see far and wide beyond ones own sight is really cool and makes them amazing spies amongst other things.

Sharigan users are amazing, and deadly and for good reason. There's just too many of them and what's more it's by FAR the cheapest ability in all of Naruto. I mean to copy someones hard earned earned skill in the blink of an eye (forgive the pun) and have it mastered and stored for future use is almost as silly as Superman.

But it's deadly...

Being able to cut off the chakra source is only if you know the Gentle Fist style as well, though. You have to have both to do that.

Pros of Sharingan :

Lets the user copy and learn any type of jutsus very quickly
Lets the user see clearly fast moving objects
Lets the user see the oponent's chakra system
Has a evolution (MS) which gives user access to a number of kinjutsus
Looks cool

Pros of Byakugan :

Gives user wider field range for sight
Lets the user see the oponent's chakra system
Gives access to Gentle Fist taijutsu and a number of Hyuga related techniques



Looking at the pros of them, I see that Byakugan's advantages are not as good as Sharingan's. So I go with Sharingan.

To be fair though we have seen a lot more from the sharingan then byakugan simply due to the fact that sasuke is a main character. Now if Byakugan had an evolved form it would greatly change the scope of which is stronger, and whats to say that neji or some other hyuga won't unlock a higher form of the byakugan later? I think the byakugan does get under played, I mean you can't hit neji at range because of his perfect def, and if you get close enough he can close every chakra opening in your body with one attack. all made possible by the byakugan.

_________________

I agree with Hitori and nefariousnilbog that Byakugan is possibly more powerful than the sharingan.

But since the question is "Which would YOU rather have?", I have to say sharingan because it looks really cool and its abilities would fit me better

You have a good point. But we have seen that Hyuga clan doesn't seem to have affinity to any nature types. So, their ninjutsu is very basic and they rely very heavily on taijutsu in every fight. Neji can only dodge long-range users and can attack them only at a very specific range which on itself is a disadvantage. He too, was able to dodge attacks that was very specific and small scale. In case of a large scale attack he is vulnerable (as we saw with his fight against Kidomaru, where his "perfect" defence was used against him).

Might be, if there exist an advanced form of Byakugan the tables might turn, but as of now, Sharingan is surely better than Byakugan. That's what I wanted to specify. Any way it doesnt matter which Dojutsu is better in the end of the day because,

Damn,how they becoume same level now?

I never thought that I will have to do long post for this but eh:

What can Byakugan REALLY do. Sure, you can see a 360 degrees around yourself and you can use the gentle fist technique, but compared to Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi and Susano'o, it pales in comparison.Not to mention it can make you immortal.


Sharingan is more advanced than Bakyugan. With Sharingan you get to see chakra, greatly improve your visual perception, the ability to easily memorize everything you see with it and strong brainwashing capabilities. That has a lot more real-life applications than Bakyugan which is, honestly, not that powerful until you learn the soft-fist style that goes with it. And even then it's only good for combat. You don't need to learn any special martial arts to get a lot of use out of Sharingan, and can learn just by looking at others if you wanted.

With sharingan you are super-powerful one on one. With Sharingan, you are still getting your ass kicked by Shodai hokage. But with Bakyugan , you can't touch Shodai and even you can be defeated by Naruto-Now you can see how bad byakugan is LOL

The sharingan also has the ability to predict what is going to happen next in a combat. Its not telling the future but its more like calculating the probabitlity.

About Jiraiya's quote,here is the real one from THE STRONGEST SANNIN:



This is already proved twice in the manga

It's true that the Sharingan is way more useful, and less limited, not to mention the evolution you get from 1 tomoe all the way up to the ethernal form. Just a correction, the Sharingan can't see the Chakra SYSTEM, it can see chakra, only the Byakugan has the ability to see a Chakra System.





Kishimoto is gonna prove this wrong, with Naruto beating Sasuke, don't deny it sasuke_ it's the whole point of the Manga. Just as Shodai beat Madara, Naruto will defeat Sasuke, and possibly Tobi-Madara as well. =)

Well I believe in kishimoto lol...But if Naruto defeat Sasuke that will be so stupid.I can feel it itachi(Itachi's powers) will finish Naruto's work

The name of manga is NARUTO and not SASUKE. So Naruto has to beat all odds and come up victorious. But, the point is, how much time he will get is ass kicked by Sasuke before that... LOL
