Yukimura had not inherited the straight-tomoe Mangekyō Sharingan characteristic unique to Indra's reincarnations, even though the source of his genetic information was the same as Sasuke Uchiha's.
Compared to Itachi Uchiha's pinwheel pattern, the pupils of Yukimura's Mangekyō Sharingan resembled sharp triangular boomerangs.
