It’s been a few years since the Boruto manga has been causing all kinds of commotion, being that the story has touched points that fans have debated a lot on social networks with each installment that surprised with the events, but now the latest installment revived a beloved character within the community. In the manga 09 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Kurama, the nine-tailed fox, returned, but with an aspect that started the debate, since it made many theories come to light about his rebirth. Attention! the note may contain some spoilers.
Kurama returns in Boruto generating all kinds of theories
With the release of manga number 09 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, fans have already received news that has surprised them in a way rarely seen, since one of the most iconic characters of the entire franchise has returned after losing his life in the past, we are referring to Naruto‘s bijuu, Kurama. But his return not only excited many, but also disappointed others, and the theories of how he could return were also present.
On the one hand, those who were excited did it because of the importance that Kurama himself has within the Naruto universe, being that his presence in this new story in the manga can give a lot of epic moments as he did in the past. While, on the other hand, we find those who believe that the return of the bijuu was a total mistake, since first they consider Kurama’s contribution to the story as finished, in addition to the fact that he no longer has a power that can contribute something in the current universe in which they are.
But this was not all, but also many theories began to be spun within the manga community, the main one being under what concept the nine-tailed fox has returned, since in the official panel he is seen next to Himawari, Naruto ‘s daughter so two major branches were born: the first that predicts that Kurama now returned to be part of it, while others are opting because this version of the bijuu is Himawari’s own, inherited from his father.
This theory of Kurama’ s return is the one that has the most weight, since in this chapter we will see different clues that will give us the idea that Himawari could really be the one who possesses the bijuu, although it is not confirmed if he only appeared to the young girl or if the relationship is something else. Also, with the return of Kurama, this could give many new ways in which the story could take the current plot, so we can only wait for the next chapters to know how the story continues.
For those who do not know perfectly the story of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex (which was previously known as Boruto: Naruto Next Generations), this is a spin-off and sequel to Naruto himself, being that it follows the life in this case of the son of this and Hinata: Boruto Uzumaki. We will also meet several of his companions, in turn children of other important characters in the original story, and how they begin their ninja path within the Hidden Village of the Leaf. In addition to the manga, which is much more advanced, the spin-off has its own anime adaptation.
