Blaze Release is a Kekkei Genkai because its used through a Dōjutsu. The whole theory of it being fire and lightning is nice and all but there's no significant evidence. It would've been nice for Kishi to clear this up but as usual he trolls.

There is such things as other kinds of fire types in actuality, its not just the orange kind. There's green, blue, even black. Depending on the Fahrenheit, you'll get a certain color which signifies a specific amount of heat. It doesn't have to be a KG this and that because its rare or something different. So Amaterasu is a jutsu that produces the hottest type of fire. Because of its difference in power, calling it a different name to signify its power seems practical but that doesn't mean there's a need to jump the gun and make it something its not. I don't know. There's too many ifs, ands and buts for this situation.

I'm interested to see how this goes, though I honestly don't see this heading anywhere.
