sharingan looks cool coz its black and red and the scary characters use it. uchiha slayer said rinengan and byakugan are not normal, everyone will know who you are from a mile away. rinengan isnt always active(check jmans flachbacks) and so what if people see you coming, they will know to run. so what if sharingan users act cool ,and byakugan users have problems, it dosent have anything to do with performance, notice how neji is the only jounin out of the previous konoha-genin-group.
bigtymer32 says byakugan is meant for hand to hand , so is sharingan, hence the "predict your opponent before he moves" ability. it just has added genjutsu.
byakgan is not just for hand to hand you can see your opponents secrets , what he's doing, notice neji warning everyone deidara was gonna blow, coz he could see exactly what he was doing. some people say sharingan can cheat on exams, but you would have to turn your head and also get a good look at the answers for the photographic memory to take effect.with byakugan you dont even have to be in the same school to cheat on exams.neji was fighting his clone whilst simultaneously looking miles behind him to check on the sasori fight. not to mention he located the barrier seals in seconds.
im not calling the sharingan shit, but the byakugan is unbelievably useful and you guys dont wanna give it any credit, coz you wanna wait till kishi makes a "cool" character to use it, like the sharingan. if neji was fighting sasori with sak and chiyo, he would have immidiatley spotted how to kill him, in a way the sharingan wouldnt. the sharingans genjutsu would have meant nothing to a puppet like sasori. yes it could predict the puppets moves, but who would get tired first, the sharingan or the puppets. not to mention the byakugan would have been able to fight all the puppets at the same time (remember nejis fight against kidomaru) nejis byakugan makes his taijutsu unrivaled when have we ever seen him take a swing at an opponent and miss.remember gai knows how to fight sharingan just by looking at their feet, which is why he is always closley hinted at being kakashis lvl ("my rival"), and neji is now a jounin class , with gai being his sensei. imagine how neji could fight against a sharingan user. the byakugan is easily the most useful bloodline limit we've seen in naruto so far.
i pick byakugan, with sharingan at a very,very,very close second.
