That would mean others can't learn to emit chakra from their hand's chakra openings & that's very, very, very weird considering many characters emit chakra from their hands to form justu like Chidori and Rasengan. Or am I expected to believe that their chakra magically teleports there from their body?

That's a false rumour made by a hyuga fanboy. gentle fist is chakra emitted from the energy points. Simple. But of course you'd have some denying this fact and stating fanfic :lol..

I see all these naysayers browsing this thread, yet no rebuttal. Maybe they have no explanation as to how hand based techniques like Kabuto's chakra dissection works without emitting chakra from the hand.

Of course it's not, the gentle fist allows higher level mastery over chakra because of the Byakugan. A non Hyuga would find it more difficult than a Hyuga who has Byakugan to release chakra from the chakra points. Training for the Hyuga would be easier than for a non Hyuga again because of the Byakugan.

All techniques that fall under gentle fist are also KKG

Rotation
KEKKEI GENKAI; Taijutsu: Hakkeshou Kaiten (Titanic Revolution* of the Eight Trigrams Palm)
User: Hyuuga Neji
Defensive; Close range; Rank: none

Main text

A taijutsu where one releases a large amount of chakra from their body's chakra openings to catch the blows from an enemy's attacks, while making one's body spin to repel them. A secret transmitted by oral tradition within the Hyuuga's Main House, though Hyuuga Neji came up with it own his own, despite him being from the Branch House. It stands in the same league as Gaara's Sand as an ultimate protection, and was even called "the other Absolute Defense". This is the high grade taijutsu that made Neji's prodigious talent known during the Chuunin exam.

-An application of Juuken, the other "Absolute Defense"!!

Picture comment

-The Byakugan's near-360° field of vision perceives the enemy's attack, and here comes the Kaiten...!!
*"Kaiten" means "spinning" or "revolution". Except the author swapped the "ten" Kanji for another, changing the meaning to "monumental task". Taken separately, the words could be translated as "Heavenly Spin". So I translated the thing as "Titanic Revolution" to somehow squeeze in all those meanings, as the "monumental" and "godly" meanings are both carried in the word "titan".

It was already explained in the manga why gentle fist only works with the Byakugan. It is not a KKG but rather a fighting style which needs the Byakugan.

Someone like Neji who was praised as a prodigy even missed a chakra point while fighting Naruto. Do you expect someone who has no Byakugan to even close a single chakra point?

Those moves are all defined by use of the Byukugan. I'm referring to the basic ability to emit chakra from the body.

Ofc not.

Are you even reading the manga? Tenten explained this ability is not unique to gentle fist user as any Jonin could emit chakra from the body. Just not as proficient as Byakugan users.

Airpalm is a simple arm thrust, Using compressed air, Similar to what Gai does with EE, The byakugan is only used to aid focusing a vital spot, Which anyone can do with basic knowledge of the body and organs, Targeting vital points isn't unique to the byakugan/hyuga. Yet it's still a KKG technique.

Rotation doesn't use the byakugan at all, It's simply emitting chakra from the body, Which you say shouldn't be a KKG, Yet rotation is.

Twin lion fist is just emitting chakra from the hands + shape manipulation, One of the only techniques that specifically says this requires the byakugan

64 palm obviously utalizes the byakugan.

Obviously there is something else in the hyuga's blood that allowed them to manipulate chakra the way they do, Thus why GF is a KKG.
Kishi just ignored them throughout the manga and never got around to explaining the hyuga in any detail

Tell that to those who claim Gentle Fist is a KKG.
It's their shitty understand of the databook entry.

The databook entry actually means because they inherited the Byakugan which has the ability to see chakra point and network by default they inherited the ability to use the GF(learn it and use it). My guess is the DB translataors didnt expect people to be of lower comprehension ability.

Gentle fist is just a fighting style, not KKG. But I think some of the Gentle Fist's techniques like Rotation, Airpalm, Lion Fists are KKG.

The fighting style itself is not a KKG, but it's techniques are.

Its a fighting style because of its techniques(you wouldn't call random kicking taekwondo, right?) and usage, though, so it technically is a KKG. Otherwise it's just an ability like walking and not an actual style.

If I recall correctly, Taekwondo doesn't have any techniques that is required to have an special alien eye so you can see the energy points inside a person's body. And then you use the same special alien eye to shoot energy out of your body. :lmao:
