Boruto: Two Blue Vortex’s leaked cover for Chapter 10 showcases Himawari and Kurama

Despite being scheduled for release on Tuesday, May 21, 2024, the spoilers and cover for the upcoming manga chapter Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 10 were leaked online days beforehand. The cover of the chapter is expected to showcase Himawari Uzumaki and Kurama.

In the previous chapter of the manga, Boruto was back in the Hidden Leaf Village to battle the sentient God Trees – Jura and Hidari. However, his fight was cut short when Kawaki’s karma was activated, forcing Boruto to retreat. Later on, Jura and Hidari targeted Himawari and Team 10, but Kurama reached out to Himawari through her consciousness.

Boruto: New Leak Reveals Second Manga Cover for Himawari’s Two Blue Vortex

The spoilers for Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 10 were recently released, and the cover for the manga chapter was leaked early as well. The cover showcases Himawari Uzumaki and Kurama, making Himawari the first character in the new manga series to be featured on multiple chapter covers.

The chapter begins with Himawari rising from her state of unconsciousness. In the background, Kurama can be seen observing her, perhaps attempting to gain her trust.

Despite Himawari’s character design remaining unchanged from her previous chapter cover, Kurama’s appearance in the Boruto manga is noticeably different from the last time fans saw him. Not only is the new Kurama smaller in size, but he also appears much darker in color compared to his previous form within Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki.

Fans last saw a dark Kurama in the Naruto series, when Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze unveiled the yin half of Kurama that was sealed within himself. Therefore, it is possible that the new Kurama has a connection to the yin-release version. However, the manga has not hinted at this possibility yet.

Regarding the text on the chapter cover, it simply provides a sneak peek into the events that were occurring.

The statement reads:

“While being chased by the Divine Trees, the Kyuubi sleeping inside Himawari wakes up.”

Moreover, the text on the chapter cover mentions “resurrection”and references something that is “flaring up.”This mention of “resurrection”could possibly indicate Kurama’s comeback, while the reference to “flaring up”could be a foreshadowing of Himawari’s awakening.

Finally, the chapter title could potentially be translated as “factors.”However, due to its vague nature, fans may need to wait for the official release of the manga chapter to fully understand its meaning.

As previously mentioned, the official release date for Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 10 is scheduled for Tuesday, May 21, 2024, at 12 am JST.
