So it occurred to me recently that the hyuuga clan's family branch system is flawed based on the story. Since its mentioned in part 1, I don't think Kishi planned to have the hyuugas being one of the ancient clans in NV.
For starters, Hiashi's and hixadhis houses are split into the two branches; despite them being twin brothers, the side branch family serves the main one. Apparently Neji said this has been going on for a while, so how come the branches are split within the same household? It would be understandable if Neji was Hinatas 3rd cousin or something along the lines, but Apparently the younger brother gets the shit end. So the confusion lies in the question that how many main and branch families are there? Unless the hyuuga clan is this small family, which is impossible as during the attack on konoha arc (orochimaru/sound in leaf) arc in part one, as well as the war arc, showed several hyuugas, in fact, the wiki page has at least 8-10 named hyuugas that appeared in more than one panel. Also dating back to generations and ancestors, if they have been doing this with each set of kids, and those kids do that with their kids, etc, we would have hundreds of branches, it just makes zero sense.
I mean we all know kishi isn't the most intellectual person (as he said it), and obviously not the most practical/socially
Smart person (the way he writes female characters), but he literally gave this one no thought.
