Himawari Uzumaki’s appearance in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has taken fans by surprise. While many expected her to become an important character, no one anticipated that she would carry the power of Kurama, the Nine-Tails Fox.
After Kurama’s death in the battle against Isshiki Otsutsuki, fans hoped the Tailed Beast would be reborn and reunite with Naruto. However, a shocking revelation showed that Kurama had actually been reincarnated inside Himawari. Now, it seems Kishimoto and Ikemoto have given Kurama a new, greater power, as the fox and Himawari share the same body and soul.
Kurama Gains Strength Through Fusion with Himawari
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex hinted at the connection between Himawari and Kurama early on. Still, many assumed Himawari was just a typical Jinchuriki, like Naruto once was.
However, Chapter 25 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex confirmed a very different truth: Himawari is not a Jinchuriki. Kurama is not sealed inside her. Instead, they share one body and soul, creating a massive power boost.
Unlike Naruto, where Kurama remained a separate entity requiring synchronization to fight, with Himawari, it’s entirely different. Kurama and Himawari are one. According to Kurama, Himawari resembles Jura, the incarnation of the Ten-Tails. This means she is essentially the embodiment of the Nine-Tails.
What Does Kurama’s New Power Mean for Himawari?
Sharing the same body and soul removes all barriers between Himawari and Kurama, allowing them to use each other’s chakra fully and efficiently. This resonance not only makes Kurama stronger than ever but also significantly boosts Himawari’s power. Additionally, Kurama has confirmed Himawari’s close connection to the Otsutsuki clan, further amplifying their strength.
No matter how you look at it, Kurama has received a major upgrade in Boruto. Now stronger than ever, only Jura, the Ten-Tails incarnation, can rival him. Over time, Kurama’s power will continue to grow, and Himawari might even surpass Naruto.
