It is his manga, hence he has a say in what they do. Nope, the animators can do whatever they want, it's an adaptation of Kishi's series. The reason for the different colours is because, when the Rinnegan was first shown in the anime, no colour depictions existed, which were later corrected when they were made available. So no, Kishimoto has no say in anything for the anime, the animators are free to do what they wish. If they want to correct mistakes, they are free to do so, but they're not obligated to do it.
