The recent spoilers and manga panels from the raw scans have caused a stir among the fanbase. This is because Himawari has finally been given the spotlight in the manga, displaying her unexpectedly strong abilities.

As a Jinchuriki, Himawari has a mini Kurama sealed within her. According to spoilers, Jura was waiting at the entrance of Konohagakure and tried to ambush Himawari and the other shinobi with her.

This was the moment that the spoilers revealed Himawari entering the Bijuu Plane. This is a realm reserved for the Tailed Beasts and their Jinchuriki who possess a strong psychic connection. This served as evidence that Himawari not only has a deep connection with her Tailed Beast, but also houses a miniature version of Kurama within her. This was a significant event that was hinted at in the Boruto anime.

In the latest episode of the Boruto anime, the spotlight was on the relationship between father and daughter, a bond that was absent in Naruto’s life. The episode also featured a limited-time sale for a figurine of the Nine-Tailed Beast, which is sealed within Naruto. Himawari was seen holding a flyer with a miniature version of Kurama on it.

According to fans, this was the creator’s subtle hint at Himawari’s future as a Jinchuriki. The miniature Kurama depicted on the flyer is an exact replica of the one shown in the original scans of the manga series.

Despite this, the manga still has to provide a significant amount of explanation regarding Himawari’s transformation into a Jinchuriki. It is expected that chapter 9 of Boruto Two Blue Vortex will end with a cliffhanger, and the following chapter will delve into the reasons behind the Nine-Tailed Beast’s chakra being present within her.
