Himawari Uzumaki is at the center of attention in the Boruto manga right now, and fans are incredibly excited to see this character receive the attention that she deserves. Part 1 of Boruto, while interesting to a certain degree, focused entirely on the likes of Boruto Uzumaki and Kawaki. The other characters, who rightly deserved their own time in the story to develop further as characters, were shafted quite a lot.

Of course, Naruto Uzumaki’s very own daughter, Himawari, was one of them as well. However, in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, it appears that the series has taken a slightly different approach, with quite a lot of characters now at the center of attention, making things all the more interesting. Fans have been loving the recent developments in Boruto as of late, and the fact that Himawari has now received tremendous power, specifically that of a Tailed Beasts, makes things more interesting.

Himawari's Hidden Strength

Himawari Uzumaki was always known to have incredible hidden strength. This was clear to the fans right from the get-go, given that she was Naruto Uzumaki’s daughter. While Naruto himself was not all that skilled, his kids, Himawari and Boruto were both confirmed to have been born with immense talent. Fans know them to be extremely powerful, and both of them hold special abilities up their sleeve. In the case of Boruto Uzumaki, he was known to have a strong connection with those of the Otsutsuki right from the get-go. This was confirmed in the story on multiple occasions, and, as the story progressed, his power of the Otsutsuki also continued to grow. The same can be said for Himawari Uzumaki.

She appears to have some deep sleeping power inside of her, and this was first alluded to by none other than Daemon. Fans no Daemon to be one of the strongest individuals in Boruto, and this kid confirmed that Himawari had special abilities that no one was aware of. In fact, Daemon even confirmed that even Boruto could not defeat him as he was, and that was quite a shock to the fans, given that Boruto could access the powers of the karma at that point. Yet, Daemon stated that Himawari had the power to beat him. Of course, while she was unaware of this at the time, Daemon was certainly intrigued by her strength and believed her to be close to his level.

Now, in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, fans have received a confirmation of Himawari’s tremendous potential. Right from the beginning of the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga, fans have seen her in action quite a bit. At first, she was seen fighting against the likes of Chocho, while they practiced with Team 10. Her growth has been off the charts in just 3 years, showcasing her immense talent for the shinobi arts. However, that wasn't all. When the powerful Shinju invaded Konoha, it was made clear to the fans that Himawari actually possesses the power of the Tailed Beast inside her.

This was essentially confirmed when Jura, who is, apparently, the strongest of the Shinju, tracked down Naruto Uzumaki's chakra signature to Konoha. He mentioned that Naruto is a jinchuriki and, given that he has been created from the same Tailed Beast, he could sense similar chakra inside of him. As such, for him, it was easy to follow this piece of chakra and track down the Jinchuriki itself. This hunt led him to Konoha, and eventually, he came face to face with the person who was the source of this powerful chakra. Surprisingly for Jura, this ended up being none other than Himawari Uzumaki

Now, it has been confirmed in the story that Himawari has access to power of Tailed Beast. Whether she has a Tailed Beast inside of her or she simply has access to Tailed Beast Chakra remains to be seen. However, either possibility is likely at this point. Regardless of that, fans are sure to wonder as to what Tailed Beast power Himawari already has. Given that Naruto primarily associates with Kurama, it is highly likely that Himawari has the power of Kurama inside of her.

Boruto introduced some powerful antagonists, called the god tree clones. Here's how they compare in terms of strength.

This power could manifest as a Tailed Beast, or, it could manifest as just Kurama's chakra having fused with hers. Either possibility is likely, but, given that Kurama is an exceptionally important character, it would make more sense for him to return inside of Himawari once again, either as his old self or given an entirely new personality. Undoubtedly, this would keep fans happy as well.

However, one problem that emerges with Himawari having Kurama inside of her is her current strength level. It must be noted that Daemon stated that Himawari was strong enough to fight against him and match him, which she shouldn't be able to do if she has Kurama inside of her. In fact, even the full power of Kurama should not be enough to match up against Daemon. Fans know him to be stronger than the average Otsutsuki, and far stronger than even Jigen, who defeated both Naruto and Sasuke together.

As such, having just Kurama inside of Himawari would not put her on that level. This then raises the possibility of Himawari having the chakra of all nine Tailed Beasts inside of her. This idea also makes sense, given that Naruto himself has a chakra off all nine Tailed Beasts, not just Kurama. Of course, Kurama forms the bulk of the chakra, but the chakra of all other Tailed Beasts inside of him does still exist.

This could essentially mean that after Himawari was born, she inherited the chakra of the 10 Tails itself, and that would make her a pseudo-Jinchuriki of the 10 Tails, just like her own father. This would mean Himawari has access to Six Paths Powers, and that would at the very least explain how Himawari could match up to Jura and Hidari.

How Strong Will Himawari Be?

Undoubtedly, Himawari is among the most powerful individuals in the entire series, and while her level of strength isn't all that great at this point in time, she has tons of potential, which, when fulfilled, will make her a monstrously powerful fighter. Himawari is most likely going to get access to Tailed Beast Chakra, be it a part of Kurama, or the 10 Tails. Either way, fans have confirmation of the fact that she will be made one of the strongest individuals in the series, possibly even surpassing the likes of Naruto Uzumaki, which many fans would be intrigued to see.

For now, fans simply have to sit back and wait to see Himawari's true level of strength, and how she attained the power that is sleeping deep inside of her. Given that the current story appears to be focused around her, the next few chapters should give fans these answers.

Boruto is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of Boruto, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 9, is set to be April 20, 2024.
