There was a filler or anime canon that had Kakashi (disguised as the photographer) helping Houki's team with interfighting, it was wholesome. he considers Kakashi a "perfect ninja"
He has "photographic memory" it's not even a ninjutsu, kid is just gifted! There are people in real life who have it they just need to see or hear something once, and they'll remember them for the rest of their lives in fullest details. (Of course they are one of the rarest, I'm talking about 25/8 Billion human beings)
Houki comes from the Taketori clan that is said to have very close connections with the Hyuga. And we also know of individuals who have hyuga blood who are not hyuga who awakened byakugan. So most likely he had a bit of it
because you skip anime canon eps is why you don´t know anything about those "new" characters, if you want to se more himawari, she has her own academy arc
Sai was expecting his son to have an extra-ordinary jutsu that he's been working on this is why he trained houki to resist jutsu's like that but unfortunately he didn't met sai's expectation so that's why he lost. That's my theory
Recommendation: watch all the way to episode 230 (the last episode of 2021 Boruto), except for episode 224. After that, skip all the way to episode 282 (the first episode of 2023 Boruto) because 2022 Boruto was trash, except for the reveal of the eighth Kara Inner.
