Overview
Personality and attributes
Originally, Neji was shown as being a kind child who held no animosity to the main family and in fact was keen to serve. This changed though when his uncle took him to the main family home and he witnessed the treatment done to his father using the curse mark. The event sparked anger in Neji who resented the treatment of his family but he remained loyal to them.
After his father's death, Neji came to be a cold individual who had a strong belief in elitism. He felt that people could not change their fate and were destined for roles. Thus, he felt that natural skill and talent outweighed training with people unable to rise above their station.
Due to his talent, he grew to be somewhat arrogant and vain with this causing friction with his teammate Rock Lee. In time, he came to respect Lee for his abilities and power though this was not something he shared with others. To others, he often disrespected them and even called them failures.
After Naruto defeats him and he finds out the truth behind his fathers death he begins to be kinder to others, however he still remains aloof and distant. He also tries to remedy the estranged relations between himself and the members of the main house, resulting in his training with the leader of the main house.
Powers and abilities
As a member of the Hyuga clan, Neji was born with the Byakugan (白眼, Literally meaning: White Eye, Meaning (Viz): All Seeing White Eye) kekkei genkai dōjutsu visual trait that was common among them. This visual trait allowed him to achieve 360 degree vision and allowed him to see all around him making it difficult for him to be ambushed. The eyes also allowed him to see with greater clarity and detail where he was able to see through things, see things that were far away and to see the chakra network within the body. This included seeing the 361 tenketsu that ran along the chakra pathway system allowing him to target it using his taijutsu. Whilst a powerful visual dojutsu, there were certain things that the Byakugan was not able to discern. For example, he was unable to determine the real Naruto Uzumaki from his shadow clones as the ninja had distributed his chakra among his duplicates equally.
He was trained in the unique taijutsu style that was taught to the members of the Hyuga clan. Neji was noted for being gifted as he came to learn combat techniques by simply observing the way members of the main family moved in order to learn their techniques. Neji came to learn the Gentle First fighting style and was proficient in its use in combat. Such was his talent that he could generate chakra from several points from his body that was a skill that even jonin were not capable of accomplishing. Thus, it was noted that this was an ultimate defence that was even greater than Gaara.
Neji knew several fighting techniques that included:
- Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms (八卦六十四掌, Hakke Rokujūyon Shō) : the secret technique of the Hyuga clan that was traditionally taught to the head of the main family though Neji came to learn it by observing them. It involved delivering a series of strikes that targeted the 64 tenketsu. Upon being struck, those areas were subsequently blocked which stopped the flow of chakra to the body of his foe making it difficult for them to move. This effectively allowed him to remove his opponents ability to use chakra for their Ninjutsu and Genjutsu.
- Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven (八卦掌回天, Hakkeshō Kaiten) : before an attack struck, Neji emitted chakra from all across his body's tenketsu in order to block it whereupon he spun rapidly and repelled the attack along with anything in the vicinity. This resulted in a protective shield being formed from the spin and remained as long as he continued the technique. It was said that the greater force of the attack than the greater the force that was repelled by it. It was made to compensate for the Byakugan's blind spot.
- Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm (八卦空掌, Hakke Kūshō) : Neji came to learn this technique after the time skip that allowed him to attack a foe from a distance. Using his Byakugan, he precisely pinpointed his foe's vital points and released a high-speed palm thrust that created a compressed vacuum shell from the Gentle Fist that struck hose locations from a distance. This could lead to the target being blown off their feet with tremendous force before they could notice being hit.
The members of the branch family were branded with a curse mark designed to ensure their loyalty. This allowed the main family to force their cooperation by inducing terrible pain that was felt in the brain.
