Boruto: Two Blue Vortex pleasantly surprised fans with an exciting chapter, reigniting the thrill as the iconic character, Kurama, made a remarkable comeback after being presumed dead. The return of Kurama inside Himawari Uzumaki has sparked joy among Boruto enthusiasts globally, especially long-time Naruto fans who have grown fond of the nine-tailed beast over the years. However, despite the elation of Kurama's return, many questions linger regarding the circumstances that facilitated this remarkable resurrection.
The Demise of Kurama in Boruto
Kurama's Sacrifice in the Battle Against Isshiki
Kurama played a crucial role in the Boruto series as an integral part of Naruto. However, the dynamics shifted in Boruto when Naruto faced the formidable opponent, Isshiki Otsutsuki, whose power surpassed any adversary Naruto had encountered. Traditional methods proved ineffective against Isshiki, prompting Kurama to devise a unique strategy. Through a joint effort with Naruto, Kurama initiated the Baryon Mode, a potent technique that enabled them to overpower Isshiki by depleting his chakra and lifespan significantly. Despite emerging victorious, the victory came at a great cost - Kurama's life. This sacrifice marked the first time Naruto was left without Kurama's presence, altering the tone of the Boruto series and disappointing fans who felt Naruto's character was underutilized.
Kurama's Rebirth in Himawari
Kurama's Resurgence in Boruto Chapter 9
As anticipated by fans, Kurama made a triumphant return in Boruto, signaling a shift in the narrative. Recognizing the significance of Kurama's legacy, the creators ensured his return to maintain the storyline's appeal. In chapter 9 of TBV, Kurama's return was confirmed when Jura and Hidari mistakenly identified Himawari as the host of the Nine Tails. Subsequently, Himawari's encounter with Kurama unveiled his presence within her, albeit in a juvenile form. Kurama's interaction with Himawari hinted at a familiar connection, indicating a shared history possibly linked to the Fourth Great Ninja War.
In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 9, fans witnessed Kurama's manifestation inside Himawari, presenting a miniature version of his former self. The revelation of Kurama's presence raised intriguing questions about his survival and the manner in which his chakra endured, ultimately manifesting within Himawari.

Unraveling the Enigma of Kurama's Return
Kurama's resurgence in Boruto has ignited enthusiasm among fans, though the circumstances surrounding his return remain shrouded in mystery. Unlike other Tailed Beasts, Kurama faced a unique fate as his chakra was completely consumed in the creation of a new energy form, erasing his existence. This departure from the norm raised doubts about Kurama's revival possibilities, as traditional concepts of Tailed Beast resurrection did not apply. The survival of Kurama hints at a deliberate transfer of his chakra to Himawari, suggesting strategic planning on Kurama's part to ensure his eventual return. The revelation of Kurama's chakra within Himawari opens avenues for speculation on the intricate ways in which his essence endured and found a new vessel.
