He even has the veins around his eyes - something exclusive to Byakugan.
There is NO such thing as Boruto's dojutsu in the manga!! I don't give a s**t to what the anime shows.
Boruto appeared in the first pages of the manga having ONE byakugan in his scared right eye in a kakashi-like style.
So, I don't think it is his original eye

Ha ha ha Mitsuki is a body type not an eye type. He's a Sage not a doujutsu user![]()

It wasn't colored in the Manga and his eye might of been healed who knows
Himawari does have blue pupils like Naruto, yet she awakens the Byakugan

With Orochimaru involved he can be both.
I get what your saying but he might not activate it or they might disregard the body eye theme

Responded before my edit. I added " though who knows " so your points are valid.
Though it'd seem kind of redundant wouldn't it? All 3 team members being doujutsu users? Seems kind of lazy and unoriginal
Why all the excitement and Byakugan wanking, though?
We all know Hyuga and Byakugan will remain irrelevant.
Boruto's doujutsu is a entirely new doujutsu, not a Byakugan.
Mitsuki likely is a Toneri clone, and it's not just his appearance and Sage Mode that hint at this, even the anime is hinting at it. If he is a Toneri clone, him getting Byakugan along with SM can be a strong possibility.
Yeah, I'm aware of that. What I meant is that dojutsu (seeminly Byakugan) is not Boruto's original eye, simply cuz that scar on his eye gives us a hint that he might have undergone an experience which is akin to that of Kakashi when Obito gave him his Sharingan

How does the anime hint it?
The new episodes introduce a ghost who gives Bolt an eye power which he thinks is a Byakugan and goes to Hiashi to learn more about it. Yet the lion-snake monster plot has still been unresolved despite the at least 4 episodes of Hyuga-focus we are soon to get. Thus, this likely means the two plot points are part of one story. Mitsuki is aware of Bolt's eye and ability to see the lion-snake's Chakra, and Mitsuki himself seems to be controlling it. I think we'll definitely get a concrete, or at least more tangible, evidence with those episodes, particularrly episode 10, where they actually start investigating the ghost.
But how does this hint mitsuki being related to toneri.
On a side note I kind of feel that ghost will be neji
I would love to see ghost Neji. But doubt it'll happen.
