Does the Byakugan and Tensiegan have some kind of genjutsu resistance?

How are they proof ?

In any case, Sharingan isn't Byakugan. So unless it's said so, their functions aren't the same. But really, by that logic, a dojutsu would shut off every time a user blinks and they'd need to reactivate it.

Not at all. The eyelids would prevent chakra from entering the Hyuga's eyes [visual genjutsu works by putting chakra into the opponent's eyes, sound genjutsu works by doing it through the ears]. Meanwhile, the Byakugan would still allow them to see where their opponent is and fight normally.
Byakugan isn't Sharingan, but you have no proof that it isn't shut off when the eyes are closed.

probably not inherently but seeing as using the byakugan requires top tier chakra control its safe to assume that byakugan users can easily release themselves from most genjutsu not counting special cases like tsukyiomi and KA

No, they can only detect when it's in use, but that can help them break out of it near instantly.

However, a Byakugan user can just close their eyes to make it so that visual genjutsu has a 0% chance of affecting them.
A Hyuga needs the Byakugan activated to have the 360 vision perk no? So if they close their eyes what's stopping them from getting beat another way? Not really a good thing to do.

Why should I believe it does? It makes no sense for a dojutsu to shut down every time the user blinks


And again, where was it shown that sharingan shuts off when the eyes are closed.
Sasuke closing his left eye to save chakra during War Arc and Kakashi using the headband to close his Sharingan because they couldn't turn it off.

but... it never completely shuts off
they're just hiding it

like wearing a bra for example
bras just hold the melons to save us from the power the melons have on our eyes

there's no way for girls to completely hide thier titties

Except Kakashi's eye does not revert back to a normal eye when he closes it, since it's not his, meaning even when his eye is closed, it's always in an activated sharingan state. So no, a dojutsu does not deactivate when the eys are closed, as Kakashi's eyes to not revert back to a normal eye. Kakashi is simply able to save chakra through not using it's precog/chakra seeing abilities.

Rinnegan and sharingan consume lots of chakra, so probably by closing their eyes they were avoiding wasting their chakra. Danzo's sharingans are a big proof too.
but their eyes are still active
so why would you think a Byakugan user, who can see trough walls, wouldn't be able to defend themselves while their eyes were closed?
