you obviously dont need the clan blood to take a bloodline limit
Bloodlime limits are worthless, anyway. As we learned, itīs just a matter of combining different chakra natures. And, I mean, weīve been reading the same manga, so .... Dragon Ball-scale jutsus all over the place. I guess having a bloodlime limit makes you feel like a more unique flower, but itīs not like it has any advantage to combat at this point. (which currently active character couldnīt just shatter Hakuīs ice mirrors :/)

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
No it's not just a matter of combining different chakra natures, all the shit we've seen mizukage and tsuchikage do is because of bloodline limits, to combine 3 different chakra together requires a BL. Madara has only been able to use wood because of the first's dna; their entire fight has been throwing bloodline limits at each other, but yeah I guess they are so worthless.. :ROLLEYES:
-----------------
So is it about combining chakra natures or isn't it? You say it isn't a matter of combining chakra natures, and then every example you list is about combining chakra natures.
The best counter-example to the chakra nature definition is Kakashi himself, though it wouldn't be so hard to handwave it away. In particular, how can Kakashi use the Sharingan at all? (The hand-wavy explanation would be that activating the Sharingan requires two chakra natures, but once activated, it's just a special eye. That might explain why Kakashi's MS is so different from the Uchiha MS -- the Uchiha are presumably using two-chakra-nature techniques through the eye, whereas Kakashi is stuck with one nature at a time)
"After all, I am strangely colored."
Yes but in a specific way, kakashi can use all 5 elements but he hasn't shown any kind of special combination yet and oonoki is the only one who's shown combining 3 elements together.
Kakashi can use sharingan because the eye was already awakened as you said; just because it's a BL doesn't mean it needs 2 elements to use it, kimimaro's BL was just him pumping chakra into the calcium in his bones pretty much iirc.
The reason why it's different is simply a deus ex machina, since it seems that 1 in so many uchiha have special MS abilities like shisui did.
-----------------
I think people are getting hung up on the statement that bloodline limits are combining two or more different elements to form a technique. It is a square and rectangle situation I believe. I've always thought that the ability to combine two or more different elements was a type of bloodline limit. Not that all blood line limits are combining two or more different elements to achieve a unique technique.
I suppose my main point was that at first they made a HUGE deal about bloodline limits... but inadvertently reneged on it as the story lines progressed.
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills
It is amazing how the fans are so much more well versed in the Naruto lore than the author is.
Peace.
Yeah. A good mangaka, like Oda, reads the forums for suggestions.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
I actually wonder about that sometimes haha. Like he reads forums to see what readers will think is gonna happen, and then does something way better.
