Introducing a new breed of young Konoha Ninjas Boruto, Ukyo Kodachi and Mikio Ikemoto have added many new features to the universe conceived by Kishimoto. One of the most interesting elements is the jougan, the protagonist’s eye art. Let’s try to understand more about the new doujutsu by answering the following question: What power does Boruto’s eye have?

Appeared in the flashforward of the manga’s first chapter, where Boruto and Kawaki compete in the ruins of Leaf Village, the new doujutsu Colora the eye from blue and the pupil and sclera from white. Aesthetically, therefore, it is like a fusion between the Byakugan, an eye art characteristic of the Hyuga clan, and its evolution, the Tenseigan, first awakened by Hamura Otsutsuki.

Even though The Jougan is still shrouded in mysteryGiven the difficulties Boruto has encountered in activating it at will, on the rare occasions it has been shown in action, you can make a tentative list of the powers it bestows on the protagonist.

Like the Byakugan, the Jougan allows you to do this see the flow of the chakras of the opponent and use this knowledge to hit him at the weak points. In addition, Boruto would be able to do so see the spirits of the dead, and being able to communicate with us, an ability that from what Momoshiki Otsutsuki has revealed would come from Hyuga blood again. In addition, according to information from one of the animators of the Pierrot studio, the jougan is connected to the dimensions created by the Otsutsuki clan.

Thanks to Jougan, Boruto is capable of this as well Open a space-time portal attaining the Nue’s dimension, an ability manifested with the generation of lightning bolts from his right eye. So in summary the powers of the Jougan They are the ability to see the flow of chakras, communicate with the spirits of dead people, and open a gap in space-time, similar to the technique Sasuke uses with his Rinnegan.
