Kishimoto may be paralleling Boruto and Himawari’s journeys in Naruto, and it makes perfect sense — Boruto and Himawari as seen in the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga (Image via Shueisha)

Since the start of the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga, fans have been theorizing the meaning behind "Two Blue Vortex" and what it refers to. However, as time has passed by, fans have become quite confident that the manga's title must be referring to the Uzumaki siblings as both characters have a significant role in the new manga.

Surprisingly, fans have speculated yet another theory that helps push the same agenda. According to fans, while the majority fanbase may not have noticed, manga creator Masashi Kishimoto could be paralleling the Uzumaki siblings' journeys. This is especially evident from everything that has happened until now in the Two Blue Vortex manga.

Himawari and Kurama's partnership could be a parallel to Boruto and Momoshiki

Since the Naruto Next Generations manga, there has been something strange and inconsistent going around with Momoshiki Otsutsuki's ability to read fate. While he is unable to see his own fate, he can see his host's fate quite well. But even then, he had no idea why it came to pass when he resurrected Boruto. This suggests that Momoshiki isn't in complete control of his ability.

As fans must know by now, both Boruto and Momoshiki are currently two entities sharing one soul and body. This was because after the protagonist passed away, Momoshiki was forced to resurrect him by using the remaining 18% of karma. He fused this data with the rest of the 82% of data that had already been extracted within his host's body.

This development could have essentially caused Momoshiki's thoughts to get synced with the protagonist's mind, allowing him to see his own fate. This is because most of what Momoshiki foresaw had major differences when the event itself happened.

Boruto saw the glimpse of Kawaki killing him and Sarada, and Momoshiki saw his host giving up and letting him take over his body. This effectively suggests that there is an inner conflict between the host and the Otsutsuki as both are battling over who gets to use the ability to foresee the future.

Even in the case of Kurama, Momoshiki Otsutsuki had prophesized that Naruto Uzumaki did not possess the jutsu to hand over Kurama to the next generation. Surprisingly, in a twist of events, Kurama was passed down to his daughter Himawari Uzumaki.

This development was also never foreseen through Prescience as Boruto himself was surprised to learn about Himawari inheriting the power once possessed by his father.

Strangely, Himawari and Kurama are also in a similar situation to Boruto and Momoshiki as both currently share one body and soul.

To make things even peculiar, similar to how Momoshiki and Kinshiki had arrived to take Kurama's chakra away from Naruto in the Naruto Next Generations manga, the Two Blue Vortex series saw Jura and Hidari arriving at Konoha to steal it from Himawari. Therefore, Himawari and Kurama were not only paralleling her brother and Momoshiki but also her father.
