Eye of Boruto: Jôgan

So far, little has been revealed about the origin and true power of Boruto's Dojutsu . We only know a tiny part of his power 🌪️ and, at present, Boruto has not yet gained full control of it. Its official name has not yet been announced. But according to an illustration of Boruto, the name of his dojutsu translates to Jôgan (or Pure Eye). 💎 So let's use this name for now!

The Jôgan awoke within his right eye with a black sclera and a light blue pupil. If one looks closely, he also appears to have a white halo around Boruto's pupil. At the beginning of the Boruto saga, we see him as an adult mastering the different powers of his eye before falling back into the story of his young childhood. This vision of Boruto's future tells us that he will become a Ninja certainly as powerful as his father.💣

The extent of the powers of the Jôgan eye

• First, it grants Boruto the power to sense and see chakra , 🕵️ especially evil chakra. This ability self-activates, probably because Boruto hasn't taken control of it yet!
• Second, it allows Boruto to see the chakra pathway system , similar to that of the Byakugan. The Jôgan even gives him an additional advantage compared to the Byakugan since Boruto is able to also identify the vital points of the chakra (Tenketsu).
• Finally (for now), Boruto can see the invisible barrier that connects the different dimensions . He also seems to be able to influence the dimensional portal, as shown when he meets his classmate Sumire Kakei.

Quite a powerful set of powers indeed! But let's remind all fans that this is just the beginning and we can expect more in the future. But for now, the question is:

What is Boruto's Eye?

In episode 8 🎞️ of the Boruto anime, we saw the return of Toneri from the movie "The Last Naruto ", sending messages to Boruto saying the following: "Your eye is a star of hope. The power of hope lies dormant deep within you... Against the destruction that will eventually come."
Now, let's put aside the "cliché" of the destined child hero, but instead focus on Toneri's words. He says that Boruto possesses the Star of Hope , which is a strong reference to Boruto's right eye. He himself referred to this eye as the Jôgan , which means "pure eye". Based on this information from Toneri, some people suspect that Jôgan is a Dojutsu of the Byakugan - Tenseigan lineage. Some also believe that it was Toneri who gave Boruto the eye, but as of now, we don't think that's the case!

Boruto's Jôgan eye:

From Manga Zone's perspective, we still think Boruto's Jôgan is related to the Otsutsuki clan . But it wasn't Toneri who gave Boruto the eye; on the contrary, Boruto inherited his eye through the manifestation of chakra from Hinata and Naruto . 🧬 This may seem silly at first glance, but let's take a closer look at their lineage:

• In Naruto " The Last ", Hinata Hyuga (or Hinata Uzumaki since her marriage to Naruto) is called Princess Byakugan and therefore received the Chakra from Hamura Otsutsuki - twin brother of Hagoromo Otsutsuki. With this power, she and Naruto were able to deactivate Toneri's Tenseigan.
• Naruto received chakra from Hagoromo during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

This is pure speculation, but let's think: according to the legend of the Naruto anime, Hagoromo and Hamura joined forces to seal away their "bad mother." Doesn’t that sound like “purifying”? And what sounds like “purify”? 💖 It’s the Pure Eye! Coming back to Boruto's case, it was his Jôgan who spotted Nue's black chakra in the first place. This black chakra fed on the man's negative emotions. And what did Boruto do for his victims? He brought them back to normal, or in other words: he "purified" them ! 🧼

His name and power actually make sense in this case since we know that Hagoromo and Hamura sealed their own mother. 👩‍🦳 And it seems that the power of this seal is passed on to Boruto - son of Hinata and Naruto, who both inherited Hamura and Hagoromo's chakra and their will.

In addition to this allusion, two other elements encouraged us to develop this theory:

• First, it was Toneri who told Boruto about the eye and his destiny . And who is Toneri? He is the descendant of the Otsutsuki clan and in "Naruto The Last", Toneri wanted to "cleanse" humanity. 🧹 Is it a coincidence that such a man tells Boruto about his great destiny?

Originally, Kaguya was the first to discover Chakra. She used this enormous power to bring peace, but little by little, she is consumed by greed and power. 👑 In other words, she became "evil". But at the same time, Chakra can be used for good, typically in the case of her twin sons Hagoromo and Hamura who sealed away the "evil" from their mother. They also represent the good side of chakra and the way it can help humanity. Therefore, we believe that the Pure Eye, Jôgan , is a pure form of chakra - the Yin chakra which is said to sustain humanity. 🌀 This could explain why the Jôgan was able to detect Nue's dark chakra.

Conclusion on Boruto's right eye:

With all of this evidence, it appears that Jôgan represents pure chakra from the combined power of Hagoromo and Hamura . 🔃 Boruto inherited the Jôgan through his lineage, not because Toneri or anyone mysteriously gave him the eye. What about the destiny Toneri conjured up for Boruto? This means that Boruto is destined to help the world and prevent it from falling into darkness. We can now say that his eye is the dojutsu capable of purifying the darkness that threatens this world!

But hey, is this just speculation from the Manga Zone team? And you ? What do you think of Boruto's eye power? Don’t hesitate to react in the comments area!
