Hyuuga, Neji

日向ネジ

Neji Hyuuga is a stoic member of Might Guy's Team Guy, which consists of himself, Rock Lee, and Tenten. Neji and Lee share a rivalry similar to that between Guy and Kakashi Hatake. Lee is determined to prove that a "failure" like himself can defeat a "genius" like Neji. However, Neji does not seem interested in Lee's goal, and Lee does not appear to have made an effort to prove his point to Neji. Despite this apparent clash of ideals, Neji seems to get along fairly well with Tenten, who often helps him with his training. Neji and Tenten also tend to share opinions on Lee and Guy's overreactive behaviors, often wondering how they can train the way they do.
As a member of the Hyuga clan, Neji possesses the Byakugan, which allows him to see the chakra flow of others and block that flow upon contact with his Gentle Fist style. As a member of the clan's branch house, Neji can never hope to be taught the clan's most secret techniques by the elders. Despite this, Neji has learned many of the clan's strongest techniques independently, even creating a few unique skills of his own. Because of this, Neji is known as a genius ninja and graduated from the Academy as the #1 rookie.
Because his father, Hizashi Hyuga, was a member of a branch house of the Hyuga clan, Neji was born into the branch house. As a result, he was branded with the Hyuga branch family seal at a young age so that the members of the main house could keep him in check. Hizashi, believing Neji to be denied his potential as a branch house member, openly resented the main house, causing Neji to acquire the same feelings due to his father's influence. In time, Neji's hatred for the main house would increase exponentially as a result of Hizashi being sacrificed to save the life of Hiashi Hyuga, Hizashi's twin brother. Neji believed that his father was forced to die for his twin brother. Because of this, Neji came to feel that fate was something decided at birth and that no matter what one does, people cannot escape their destiny. This idea would go on to shape Neji's life, creating a deep hatred for the main house and all of its members.
After the Chunnin Exams, when Neji fights Naruto, both his great skill and potential are recognized by the clan leader, his uncle Hiashi Hyuuga, and he is sought out by him to train with the main branch of the family to further enhance Neji's skills. This helps ease some of the tensions between the two branches of the Hyuuga clan.
