8 Interesting Facts About Neji Hyuga Whose Role is Just as Important as Naruto, Fans Haven't Moved On Since His Death in the Shinobi World War

Neji is known as one of the greatest geniuses in the history of the Hyuga Clan. Although he comes from a lower branch family, his ability to master Byakugan and Hyuga techniques is truly impressive.

Neji is an expert in Gentle Fist (Jūken), the taijutsu fighting style characteristic of the Hyuga Clan that allows him to attack the opponent's chakra circulation system with high precision. This makes him very dangerous in close combat.

Neji sacrificed his life to protect Naruto and Hinata from the Juubi's attack during the Fourth Ninja War. His sacrifice shows how much he has changed from someone who was once obsessed with fate, to someone who is willing to sacrifice himself for others.  

Neji strongly believed in fate and felt that his life was predetermined by destiny due to his position in the branch family. However, after the fight with Naruto in the Chuunin exam, Neji began to understand that fate can be changed with effort and determination.

Neji has a cursed seal on his forehead, which is a distinctive mark of the branch family members of the Hyuga Clan. This seal is used by the Main Clan to control the Branch Clan members and prevent them from rebelling.

Byakugan Neji is very strong, giving him the ability to see almost 360 degrees and detect chakra flow within a very large radius. This makes him superior in reconnaissance and combat.

After the battle with Naruto, Neji became a symbol of hope for the branch family members of the Hyuga Clan. His struggle to fight against the destiny imposed on him became an inspiration for others to believe that they too could determine their own fate.
