In the late chapter , it looks like Jūra may lay claim the first major victim inBoruto : Two Blue Vortex , with Inojin Yamanaka ’s expiry , which could bespeak other potential deaths to follow .
TheNarutofranchise is no stranger to death , with various major fibre heroically sacrificing themselves or being dead destroyed in engagement .
At their core , the volume of theNarutoandBorutocharacters are ninjas , so the peril is always confining by . ButBorutoseemingly breaks custom by kill off one of Konoha ’s promising recruit , intimate nobody is safe .

Inojin Yamanaka Takes a Fatal Blow in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex
But Given the Series' Handling of Death, It May Not Be Permanent
In the final pages ofBoruto : Two Blue Vortexchapter # 10 , Jūra and Hidari approach Konoha , pursue the Nine - Tails chakra , not realizing Himawari is the informant . With Himawari being defended by the newfangled generation ’s Team 10 , all seemed well , as the Ino - Shika - Cho trio is historicallyone of the best team composition in theNarutofranchise . But all the tactics in the Earth did n’t prepare Team 10 for a major casualtywhen Inojin , straight off after Jūra down his bird concept , lashes out , resulting in his possible deathinBoruto : Two Blue Vortex .
The Ino - Shika - Chō formation is a Konoha staple , with Team Moegi , bear Inojin , Shikadai , and Chōchō , serving as the 17th genesis of the team . empower by nous , shadow , and organic structure modification techniques , it is a try on - and - straight synergy based on this three - ninja cell ’s cooperative bond . If Inojin is indeed utter , this is a devastating loss for the village .
While Inojin ’s dying seems inevitable give the severity of his impalement , death has a history of not baffle inBorutoandNaruto , perhaps most famously in the Pain Arc . However , until otherwise stated , Inojin ’s impulsiveness yet admirable dedication to protecting Himawari results in his apparent expiry , one of the most significant exit since Ōnoki . One element remains , though , which plug in these events to a parallel from the first major arc inNaruto .

Inojin’s Death Leads to a Parallel to the Land of Waves Arc
This Moment Deceived Readers About Another Supporting Character
The issue ofNarutochapter # 27 , where Sasuke is heavy connote to die in front of Naruto , prompts Naruto to fly into a frenzy , unleashing his Nine - Tailed Fox chakra for the first sentence . InBoruto : Two Blue Vortex , the loss of Inojin induce Himawari to snapsimilarly after she first evince nothing but falter when the two link consciousness . Much like Naruto against Haku , this combat with Jūra is probable to be equally unhinged , this prison term with Kurama ’s verbatim boost . The days of Kurama locked in a batting cage are over , after all .
What ’s notable about Himawari ’s case is just how much Kurama has alter since the commencement of the franchise . He opens up a dialogue with her rather of tease his hostlike he did with her male parent , Naruto ; he has changed his ways yet remain in part . Kurama may have turned over a fresh leaf , but much like other resident of the Hidden Leaf , he ’s got an boundary . Kurama still wants Himawari to unleash the beast , seeing how strong her affinity with his chakra is . As it stands , this could be the most potent Julian Bond yet between Kurama and the Uzumaki clan .
Kurama is more than the Tailed Beast individuality , with him getting a first - name basis with Naruto , and now Himawari too . A lot of this is influence by Killer Bee ’s bond with his Tailed Beast fromNaruto , and it reflects Kurama ’s character development and highlights Naruto ’s forgiving nature .

This development follows the terminate ofBoruto : Two Blue Vortexchapter # 9 , where Kurama divulge himself to Himawari . For those who have been espouse so far , Kurama previously died after igniting Baryon Mode to help Naruto struggle IsshikiinBoruto : Naruto Next Generationschapter # 52 . It dramatically impress Naruto ’s succeeding output signal as a protector of Konoha . Still , as confirm in chapter # 10 , the Tailed Beasts do n’t die permanently , with a nub of their strength growing in a new legion over time .
Boruto : Two Blue Vortex added more focus to its narrative than before the clip - skip , but late chapters tease a dissatisfactory end onwards .
This Boruto Death, While Shocking, Sets Up a Grim Pattern
Can Death Skip a Generation?
Inojin Yamanaka ’s death is sudden in the series , far more sudden than his grandfather , Inoichi , who died in the Fourth Great Ninja War alongside Shikaku Nara . It ’s a reminder that the Ino - Shika - Cho trio has had casualties before . Still , Inojin is a mere teen , untried thanNeji , whose death was maybe the most tragical of the premature geological era ’s shinobi . Whether it implies the Yamanaka clan ’s male members are much predetermined , that or untimely dying skips a multiplication , with Ino still mark safe .
Still , Inojin is a mere teen , young than Neji , whose last was possibly the most tragic of the previous era ’s shinobi .
It ’s reassuring that ChoCho and Shikadai have n’t been injured similarly and could survive this encounter , unlike their comrade . With Jūra able to care even knotty opponents like Kawaki , encasing characters like Himawari ( at first ) easily using his wood release , ChoCho and Shikadai may have to sit this round out . Fortunately , as express by Himawari easily breaking out of her confinement , her chakra link with Kurama could be potent enough to treat the God Tree spawn alone .

Still , the fight is n’t over , and the tale ofBoruto : Two Blue Vortexmay indicate how it will end , but it seems supporting character decease are n’t being held back until late story this time . Whether some Deus Ex Machina rescues Inojin will be determined in June or the follow months is immaterial , and as it suffer , it means no character is truly safe . Aside from plot of ground armour tropes belike protecting Himawari , Boruto , and Kawakifor the next couple of month , it might be good not to get too attach in case of other untimely deaths .
Himawari’s Connection to Kurama Is Stronger Than Her Predecessors
The Nine-Tailed Fox’s Latent Connection in Naruto’s Daughter Is Truly Unique
InBoruto : Two Blue Vortexchapter # 10 , Kurama tells Himawari that her connexion and chakra affinity with him is stronger than Naruto’s . Given how integral Kurama ’s partnership is with the Seventh Hokage and how devastatingly potent the two become , this is a fascinating premise . This is especially likable , afford the promise of more honest-to-goodness - schoolNarutoaction forrader . Himawari will have a introductory understanding of controlling the beast ’s chakra , butshe should be able to deal Jūra at least .
The fact that this is instigate by the plain death of one of Himawari ’s protectors in Boruto is unfortunate , but it ’s a sign of greater affair to come up . Kurama appears before her in a jejune form , looking far small and younger than for Naruto , yet even his boost at this stage is enough to handle Jūra ’s imprisonment . The first truly volatile fight to take blank space inBoruto : Two Blue Vortexseems balance to shake up the condition quo , and if a character ’s decease sets it off , anticipate more to come throughout the series .
