Yes it would likely be some form of diluted Byakugan.. i still am pondering if I should see it as diluted or reawakened.At this point there is only two logical theories to all this.
1) The eye is a result of Hamura/Hagoromo bloodlines mixing.
2) The eye is purely from Hinata's side and is a result of her Byakugan DNA and Ootsutsuki Chakra.
I would like to think its the second option for several reasons.
There's been emphasis that Bolt didn't get anything in terms of powers or abilities form Naruto,
The Ootsutuski will likely be the main villains, so Bolt's Ootsutsuki side will be more relevant.
The eye itself looks like a Tenseigan more and more.
The high possibility that Toneri may reappear, so Tenseigan will be relevant again.
This is what I don't like about Kishimoto ditching the rookies 12 where instead he uses the opportunity for next generations side characters being all the focused something that Kishimoto hadn't focuses on each individual characters like Neji or Rock Lee that never had a drama moment since part 1.It took 3 jounin to stop Neji in Neji vs Hinata pt 1, he was the first to become jounin in K12 T_T why did he die? We aren't even sure if the Hyuga system changed.
Honestly, it truly is amazing how tone deaf Kishi is. People fell in love with this series and its characters with the Chunnin Exams, yet the K11/Sand Sibs are treated like trash outside of Shikamaru, Gaara, and Choji. The poor things get no fight scenes in all of P2 only to show up and don Naruto’s Bijuu Cloak, grab his rasengan, and ride his tails in order to fight Obito. Because how can they be useful without Naruto’s help?This is what I don't like about Kishimoto ditching the rookies 12 where instead he uses the opportunity for next generations side characters being all the focused something that Kishimoto hadn't focuses on each individual characters like Neji or Rock Lee that never had a drama moment since part 1.
It really is disappointing. Neji and Hinata were the Byakugan OGs, yet here we have aliens and a half-breed getting any of the new Byakugan powers. Still, I'm optimistic we'll get some feats for Hinata and Neji.Just now the Byakugan is having its special powers through Boruto to where Hinata never given a special development of her own Byakugan despite being called Byakugan Princess in the Last. Neji potential being thrown out only to showcase through Boruto is what rubbed me the wrong way.

Sad part is most of them didn’t even get any real fight scenes in all of P2 (Talking about Team 8 and Gai), so asspulling some Kage-level powers akin to what was done with Sakura and the Yin Seal for them during the Juubito fight wouldn’t even have been out of place.
Kishimoto is literally giving other ninjas Naruto's moves because obviously without him they couldn't handle themselves. Remember when this manga was full of diverse characters with unique jutsu and fighting styles? Remember when characters didn't have to be the strongest to win? When ninjas had to use tactics, stealth and wit?

Neji obviously when we get flashbacks of him, but the question is how long these flashbacks really will be. Ideally, it should at least be 2 or 3 chapters, since this is monthly. There is the haunting issue that flashbacks we get of him could easily revolve around no fights at all, so that could be an issue.
With Hinata, there is ample potential for her to be relevant and get feats, it's whether or not the writer's choose to go down that route.
In Road to B, Mitsuki calls her the Byakugan Princess, meaning Kishimoto hasn't just kept that title exclusive to The Last.
Mitsuki himself bares several similarities to Toneri and could potentially be his clone, and that may lead to Hinata getting involved.
If Bolt's eye is Tenseigan or something similar, it would mean Hinata's Rikudo Chakra will be brought into play.
Even w/o any of that, she could still get feats by training Bolt when he get's his dojutsu.
The evidences keep piling up. I would love to see dynamic feud with the Main and Branch family between Boruto and Mitsuki. Mitsuki always seem loyal to Boruto so it would make more sense if he's from the Branch family.Let's look at the evidence for Mitsuki being Toneri's clone.
>Introduced around the same time
>Cyan Chakra Modes
>Single Horn on forehead WHEN in said modes
>Light Blue, short hair
>White skin
>Moon motif
>Bolt's opposite = Hyuga/Ootsutsuki
>Byakugan-like eyes while in Snake Sage Mode
It would be absolutely nonsensical to not have these two be related with how damn similar they are.
