The thing that had bothered me the most is that Boruto had already begun using his ocular powers just before he went into the academy.

The events in the anime are obviously prior to the events that had happened from the Boruto movie.
Since Naruto is already hokage, he and his entire family should know of Himawari's, or at least only Boruto and Naruto, byakugan.

How is it that he never bothers to ask either his mother or Himawari about the things that he was seeing?
He obviously know that he can see things others cannot, although he thinks Mitsuki can see them as well.
But during the Boruto events, we see Boruto not exhibiting any of these traits.
His eye never once got activated, not in the movie, not in the manga.

"Kishi and the author are working with SP and the anime is cannon" seems farfetched as the events occurring is not consistent with the movie and/or with the manga.

If you could rewrite it, how would you reveal his ocular power, would it even be natural or perhaps implanted?

I'd lean towards the implant theory. The scar is reminiscent to Kakashi's and perhaps he would obtain it from Hiashi as a parting gift for Boruto since he has no byakugan unlike his sister Himawari.

Also. Bolt's eye is only triggered by the lion monster. Naturally by the time of the movie the monster will have been destroyed and taken care of. Thus there is nothin triggering the activation anymore until he possibly awakens it on his own.

I just dislike how people use the phrase "involved with the anime" as if they are actually doing anything.
I could be "involved" in a group project by simply just putting my name down but having actually nothing to do with it.

Same goes with Kishi and the author. They are involved because Kishi is the creator of the series and the author is the one responsible for the development of the manga. Whatever SP concocts for the anime, it should not be treated as cannon.
I mean the author put the movie in manga form to make it cannon and yet the anime is "cannon" especially when it is made by SP.
How can you make a "cannon arc" when the manga is still no where near done. How could you consider the storyline of the arc when it isn't even in the manga and would never get covered in the future cannon?

Where did you get the impression that Himawari's family doesnt know about her byakugan? Bolt literally looks at her eyes before asking ajout it to hinata.
Boruto knows of course but Naruto was knocked out so I'm not sure whether or not he would remember. Hinata may have no clue.
Regardless of whether or not they know about it, the question remains: Boruto has not sought help about his eye (it seems he would finally talk about it in episode 8)

Even so, why would he have been not able to use this eye during the Boruto movie events and then suddenly he is able to again in the future when he is fighting Kawaki?

I just think that the anime is another SP filler.

Relax. If you have seen the anime spoiler, Boruto will tell Hinata, and his grandfather about his eyes in the next couple episode. There Boruto will be prompt to fight Hanabi and put to the test whether he can push to his limit to activate his byakugan or not.

Just because Boruto's Dojutsu wasn't showcased in the Movie plot doesn't mean it make the anime fillerish, I am getting the impression that Boruto was not able to awaken the dojutsu on his own will and since Naruto doesn't believe he had a dojutsu means that Boruto would keep it to himself until Momoshiki gives him some kind of reminder which is why it is going to be put on a back-burner until Boruto get some actual knowledge about his dojutsu and learn how to fully awaken it in the manga.

yes that is fine by me but the issue here is that his ocular power awakens by this entity's chakra/essence and yet Momoshiki and Kinshi does not trigger it in anyway whatsoever.

I am really looking forward to be disappointed for the next 3 weeks. We all know that he is finally going to confront his family about it and will be eventually let down due to it having a special trigger. I don't expect some big revelations considering that he was not able to use it even in the movie so that would mean that we wouldn't see it until after the Gaiden events as well.

My take is that Sarada's ocular powers will mature first before Boruto ever being able to unlock it by his own. I think that it will as you said, be put in the back burner. The author will probably develop Sarada's first and only until then would Boruto's "byakugan" get some attention. Unfortunately I don't see that happening any time soon.

Yeah that bothers me tpp, and I've thought it remenecant of Kakashis eye from day 1 good theory

Yeah but Boruto dojutsu has some special connection with the dreamworld which might entail that Boruto dojutsu can only be triggered by the ghost entity and spiritual chakra from another plane of existence. There's a reason why episode 10 titled:
( Begin investigations on the Ghost Incidents) so it's inevitable that Boruto dojutsu isn't an ordinary byakugan that can be triggered by anything like Himawari cases for example so therefore Momoshiki and Kinishiki does not fit the description of being ghost.

We're not going to see him learn accustom his byakugan until some time after the movie so of course it's going to take years for god knows how long it's going to take until we get the actual activation in the manga.

I think it's the most plausible one especially if we take the duality aspect of things.

We know that one sibling gets the "mind" or ocular powers while the other gets the "body" or life essence/chakra.

So if Himawari gets the byakugan, that would mean that Boruto gets the body, like his father. So the only way he would get any ocular powers is via implanting them.

I was hoping that his eye would've activated when Momoshiki stopped time or at least Momoshiki was using a byakugan-esque tech to stop time. I'm grasping at straws here ATM because of what the anime just pulled out of nowhere.
