Oh okay my bad. But, what does Neji and Hiruzen have to do with the Yata Mirror? If I'm sore, than I guess everyone else here as well, because none of us believe what you are saying. The Databooks are semi-canon, and do not take precedence over the manga, period. The Databooks need the manga. Just because the Databooks says something and manga shows that it is not true, doesn't mean that Kishi downplayed anything, if anything it means he hyped it. Nothing from manga indicates that the Yata Mirror is omnidirectional, and even for that matter able to adapt its characteristics to negate ninjutsu, despite it having the ample of opportunity to display it.
