Are there other clans than the Hyuga with the Byakugan


naruto shippuden episode 389 (dubbed) at 2:45 a maid reveals that

> "The Hyuga is a distinguished clan _-pause_ within the leaf we are the only
> ones who posses the Byakugan"

Does this mean that there are clans who posses the Byakugan other than the
Hyuga outside of the leaf village?




The Byakugan actually originated from the Ōtsutsuki Clan. As revealed in
**Chapter 671** and as stated in the wiki, the
[Byakugan](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Byakugan)

> originated from the Ōtsutsuki Clan and was later inherited by their distant
> descendants, the Hyūga Clan.

Outside the leaf village, I can only recall
[Ao](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Ao) as the known possessor of the Byakugan
but it should be noted that this was stolen and not inherited, like that of
the Hyūga Clan.
