Boruto: Two Blue Vortex continues to captivate a significant audience with its compelling story elements and high-quality narrative that the manga series has maintained to this day. After a three-year timeskip, the landscape in Konoha has undergone profound changes, and the world is on the brink of disaster due to the emergence of Shinju, while the central plot of the story currently unfolds.
What happened to the Uzumaki family at the end of Part 1?
The conclusion of Part 1 of Boruto brought a tragic outcome for Naruto Uzumaki and those around him, with the core conflict arising from the actions of Kawaki. Following a fierce battle against Otsutsuki Isshiki, the situation in Konoha became increasingly dire, especially after Uzumaki Naruto lost the power of Kurama. Kawaki then expressed his intent to eradicate all Otsutsuki, including Boruto, which ultimately led to the imprisonment of Naruto and Hinata in another dimension.
Subsequently, Kawaki attempted to eliminate Boruto, and when his plan failed, Eida intervened and used her powerful abilities to switch the roles of Kawaki and Boruto in everyone’s memories. As a result, Kawaki is now recognized as an Uzumaki, while Boruto is seen as an enemy who has been raised by Naruto. Furthermore, Boruto is now branded as an assassin of Hokage Naruto. Essentially, the Uzumaki family has been shattered. In the current world scenario, Naruto and Hinata are presumed “dead,” while Kawaki and Himawari are the only surviving Uzumakis in Konoha.
Ikemoto reveals the significant role of Himawari during the Timeskip
With Boruto being forced to flee from the village, the Uzumaki family has seemingly been left in a precarious position in Konoha. However, it seems that Uzumaki Himawari has managed to maintain her family’s legacy. Ikemoto has specifically revealed that Himawari lives alone in the Uzumaki residence, taking care of matters herself. Despite Naruto being declared dead, Himawari remains hopeful that her parents will return one day and is preparing the house for their eventual return.
Here are some insights shared by the author:
Q: Where will Himawari be living and how will she cope after the tragedy?
A: According to her own preference, she lives alone in the Uzumaki residence, managing everything at home. Himawari feels that one day her parents will return, so she is trying to protect her “home” for them.
In other words, the Uzumaki family in Konoha is now quietly kept alive by Himawari. This situation is particularly intriguing, as Kawaki is now regarded by everyone as an Uzumaki, while Himawari lives alone, steadfastly holding on to the “shadow” of her family. This suggests that Kawaki has chosen to live separately in the new reality to relieve the burden of maintaining the Uzumaki family for Himawari. The audience is left with the hope that Naruto and Hinata will soon be freed from their imprisonment and that the truth of their eternal bond will be revealed.
