Boruto Two Blue Vortex Theory: Is Himawari the Key to Kurama's Resurrection?
The Nine-Tails might not be gone. We analyze the trending theory that Himawari Uzumaki has inherited Kurama's chakra. Read the breakdown here.

Naruto fans, stop crying over Baryon Mode for a second.
Kurama might be coming back.
But not in the way you think. The latest chapters of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex have dropped hints heavy enough to crush a Tailed Beast Bomb. All eyes are on Himawari Uzumaki, and if the theories are correct, she is about to become the most broken character in the franchise.

The "Jura" Problem
The new villain, Jura (a sentient Ten-Tails tree avatar), visited Konoha looking for Naruto. But when he arrived, he didn't find the 7th Hokage.
He found Himawari.
Jura explicitly stated he sensed the Nine-Tails' chakra inside her. This isn't a metaphor. This is confirmation. We always knew Himawari was special (she knocked out Naruto with one finger at age 3, remember?), but this recontextualizes everything.

The "Gohan" of the Ninja World?
Functionally, Himawari is becoming the Gohan of the Boruto verse.
Just like Gohan in Dragon Ball Z, she is the pacifist child of the strongest warrior, holding a dormant power that far exceeds her parent. Naruto worked hard for his power; Himawari was born with it.
If she truly has a remnant of Kurama's chakra regenerating inside her, she isn't just a Jinchuriki. She is a resurrection vessel.
For years, Himawari was just the "cute little sister."
Two Blue Vortex is changing that. She is training with Ino-Shika-Cho, she has the Byakugan, and now she casually houses a nuclear weapon in her gut. The theory isn't just hype; it's the only logical way to bring Kurama back without cheapening Naruto's sacrifice.
