During the fight of Team Asuma and Kakashi vs Kakuzu and Hidan, Naruto eyes
changed. It's like the Fox's eyes but still in blue.

> This is before he mastered Kurama's, the Nine Tails, chakra.

When Kurama possesses him his eyes color would change to red, but during this
fight his eyes were blue. Is there a explanation for this?

Reason for the change in the eye colour of Naruto


I don't think there is an accurate answer for this, but I think he might have
been using the Kyuubi's, aka Kurama or Nine Tails, chakra without it taking
control over him. He has done this a lot of times in other episodes, but his
eyes turn red. What I mean by this is that every time Kyuubi lets Naruto take
some of his chakra, Naruto's eyes turn red then (sometimes) Kyuubi's chakra
start to surround him. This only happens when Naruto gets taken over by his
emotions. Also notice that his whiskers get darker.

Also every time Kyuubi gets mad his eyes reflect on Naruto's. Kyuubi said this
happened before when Naruto was in Sage Mode when he was talking with Nagato.
He said that he was so mad some of his chakra "accidentally spilt", so his
eyes were mixed in with the Sage Mode in Naruto's eyes.

All of the information I gave says that Kyuubi gives Naruto some of his chakra
which makes his eyes turn red, but when he was fighting Kakuzu and Hidan he
didn't seem mad. But maybe like [@Ayase
Eri](https://anime.stackexchange.com/users/7866/ayase-eri) said in the
comments the studio could have just messed up and put blue instead of red in
his eyes, or they just didn't and it supposed to be like that.

Maybe the different colors of narutos fox eyes means how much the fox is
present like how much the fox is possessing him when his eyes were fox blue it
was him but eather he was borrowing chakra but had more control of him or the
fox was just present like looking out thru naruto eyes keeping an eye on the
battle
