The Origin of Sharingan

Naruto Manga Chapter 400 has been released and available for download in the internet. It was still about Sasuke and Madara's chit chat about the past of Konoha... and it was a little bit boring...

However, I'm not gonna dwell on it. What's on my mind is, after all that talk with the so called Konoha's Founding Father, why do Masashi doesn't enlighten us about the origin of Sharingan. It's been quite a mistery since the only reference we have about it was only when Kakashi said that Byakugan was rumored to be the origin of Sharingan.

That time, Kakashi information was still relevance since we only see a glimpse of Sharingan's ability like copying Ninjutsu, predict movements and sensing Chakra flows. While the information we have on Byakugan was the almost 360 degree vision and Keirakukei (Chakra channels) viewing ability.

But now, we could see that Neji Byakugan doesn't gave us any surprise even after three years of intensive training from the Head of Hyuugas. While Sharingan have been surprisingly introduce us many new ability like dimensional shift, powerful genjutsu, undying flames (amaterasu), impenetrable defense (Sushanoo) and controlling the Kyuubi.

With all that, it seems that Byakugan have come to a dead end in development and Sharingan unfold more and more powerful abilities.

It's not cool because I still remember how strong Hyuuga Neji was as a genin. And now, Sasuke seemed like being the strongest ex-genin of Konoha. It makes Konoha Jounin Sensei looked like useless teacher.

I hope Masashi will came up with a more interesting approach considering this matters...
