It's about time they introduced the higher ups.

The daimyo are pretty important to the villages. With the looming threat of the aliens and a enemy mind controlling people I'm thinking the daiymo gets mind controlled and it results in a intense clash of interest between villages.

Or it'd be Mind controlled Naruto vs Sasuke while Kawaki fights Boruto.

Pretty interested in how this is going to play out but it's too early to tell.

Well I can't see Naruto or Sasuke being caught in a Genjutsu or mind control below IT level honestly.

I couldn't see byakugan being able to freeze time and that happened so you never know.

It would be interesting fight. But less about that. The daiymo are finally getting somewhat exposure. I've always wanted them to play a bigger role. Hopefully the world building gets better. That world has things like a giant turtle island with living animals in it and dimensions with castles and aliens. Should be more about adventure and less cornholed into plot points.

Momoshiki was a god with the Rinnegan too and Byakugan, I doubt the time stop was a Byakugan ability.

Oh god, mind control is such a stupid trope, it needs to disappear.

He said Boruto could see him and move because of his thugs ties rather than the rinnegan.

I'm confused at to what counts as a god. Kaguya wasn't powerful until she ate the fruit. Momo knew of the tailed beast despite them not even being a thing.

Kaguya became a true immortal whereas momo died. Hagoromo referred to his mom and her clan as aliens rather than gods.

I'd only consider Kaguya a god and the others as otherworldly beings.

Well, its clear that its probably a mix of both given how Bolt and Sasuke were able to see it, though since Bolt was able to move, it may hint at a bigger connection to the Byakugan. That, or for all we know, Hinata and all other Hyuga are the same species as Momoshiki and so Bolt was left unaffected while Sasuke was able to see it thanks to his Rennigan.

It seems like the guy has more abilities than mind control. He can copy dead people I believe. It hasn't been used in the series so far. Manipulation of emotions, yes. But not complete mind control.

It probably was though. It's just a theory at this point. But I'm just taking my que from all the little hints being dropped:

An Otsutsuki villain who has Byakugan
The protagonist is half Hyuga and introduced in a flash forward with a seal enhanced Byakugan maybe?
Momoshiki's warning about how his blue eyes will bring ruin to all Boruto holds dear.
The fact that Momo was impressed that he could see him and move while it appeared others could not.

It seems Ikemoto is focusing on Byakugan in this Part 3 if you will. So we are probably looking at possible evolution of the Byakugan this time. Possibly even the return of the Tenseigan. So time manipulation may indeed be a new ability for the Byakugan

Copying dead bodies? So like a Zetsu?

Zestu could copy you if you were alive he just needed to steal your chakra. It seems this dude kills you and replicates your abilities and maybe your appearance.

It also says he can copy people from his memories? That's absurd tbh. I think he can only copy appearance and voice, I dont think it said anywhere he can copy abilities.

If the Byakugan is gaining relevance this time, they better give the Hyuga Clan some focus this time around, there's still a million and one things from Part 1 that have remained unanswered. And a legit Hinata fight for once.
