So, I came across this scene in the anime, and was confused about the
Rinnegan.

That is [Lord Tenji](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Tenji) being wrapped up by
the God Tree when he asks [Kaguya](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Kaguya) about
who she was.

question
naruto
Is there any explanation for the Rinnegan being on people?


That is due to the effect of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Once it is cast:

> All those who fall under its gaze are trapped in the genjutsu, with the
> Rinnegan's design appearing in their eyes to represent its influence.

Just like when you can see the Sharingan pattern in Kyuubi's eyes when it was
under Obito's control during the attack on Konoha.
