No, Himawari Does Not Have the Nine Tails’ Chakra & Here’s Why!

Kurama, the Nine-Tailed Fox, was one of the principal characters from Naruto until its death in Boruto. Kurama defined Naruto’s story and is intrinsically tied to Naruto, and it impacted the show and the characters. Now, with Naruto losing his status of Jinchūriki, many characters wonder whether Himawari, his daughter, if not Boruto, could receive Kurama’s chakra and, perhaps, become the next Jinchūriki. We can say outright that Himawari does not have Kurama’s chakra and that she will not get Kurama in the future. In this article, we will explain why that won’t happen in the series.

Himawari doesn’t have Nine Tail’s Chakra, and she will never become the Jinchūriki because Kurama is dead. The procedure of becoming a Jinchūriki is difficult, and since Naruto freed the majority of Tailed Beasts and Kurama is no longer alive, it is highly unlikely that Himawari or anyone else will ever become a Jinchūriki. But even if she were to become a Jinchūriki, it is quite unlikely that Himawari would succeed in resurrecting Kurama because he is already dead, and there does not appear to be a method by which this could be done.

As you might have deduced, this article will focus on Kurama and Kurama’s relationship with Himawari in the context of her potentially becoming a Jinchūriki and having Kurama’s chakra at this moment. You’re going to find out what exactly happened to Kurama in the Boruto manga and anime and whether Himawari could, at one point, become a new Jinchūriki and the holder of Kurama’s chakra. You’ll also find out how Kurama’s death influences this fact. Some spoilers might be present, so be careful how you approach certain parts of the article.

Kurama is dead. And that is a sad fact that everyone has to accept

In the world of Naruto, Tailed Beasts are feared because of the potential for destruction that each of them represents, but they are also sought after for the same reasons. Several Tailed Beasts have for several generations been the property of groups of ninjas who, thanks to techniques based on seals, lock them up in human beings whose lives are sacrificed to become living weapons. These hosts are called Jinchūriki.

They are frequently shunned from normal social interactions and are frequently feared or despised in equal measure to the monsters whose abilities and souls they seize. Many end up turning into self-centered misanthropes. It is possible to grow exceedingly powerful by understanding how to channel this power and how to use it properly. The host perishes if a Tailed Beast is removed from it. The only people with bodies tough enough to resist are Uzumaki clan members.

However, some persons cannot control the strength of these chakra animals; in these circumstances, the Jinchūriki must either force the beasts out of his body or release them, resulting in his death. This is so that not all people can deal with the Tailed Beasts. This was the case with several Kumogakure citizens who lacked the power to endure Hachibi’s incredible strength.

All of the Biju were liberated by Naruto during the Fourth Shinobi World War, and they all merged with him to support him in battle. The nine Biju allowed Naruto to radically alter his chakra and increase his power. But after the battles, Naruto let all the animals go, except for Kurama, his Tailed Beast. The Beasts themselves were set free, though he secretly retained half of their chakra inside of him for use in later conflicts. Only Naruto (Kurama) and Killer B (Gūyki) were still equipped with a Jinchūriki. Then Kurama passed away.

After Isshiki, in Jigen’s body, travels to Naruto’s home via his link to Kawaki’s Kama with the goal of rescuing him. Instead, he rapidly overwhelmed the Hokage and imprisoned him with black bars. When Kurama reprimanded him for degrading the rank of Hokage, Naruto retaliated by launching Kurama Mode and Six Paths Sage Mode to liberate himself and face the foe.

Later, Isshiki attempted to trap Naruto in a different dimension by sending him there, but Sasuke showed up and stopped him. As the battle continued, Naruto manifested Kurama, who attacked using his tail. Nevertheless, despite their best efforts, Naruto and Sasuke were defeated. They were confined by the black bars and an Isshiki who had unleashed his power with Kama violently extracted Naruto.

Naruto was able to deter Isshiki from his plot to kill Sasuke with the aid of Shadow Clones, allowing him to depart with the Rinnegan. Naruto made fun of Isshiki for what had happened. Kurama ordered Isshiki to refrain from using him to justify killing him because he had never intended to do so.

Isshiki thanked Kurama for his comments before enclosing them in a sizable casket. Eventually, Team 7 and Kawaki traveled to that world to save Naruto by combining the abilities of Boruto and Kawaki’s Kama. Boruto and Kawaki used their Kama to break through a gateway in the seal and release an unconscious Naruto after an unrestrained battle with Boro.

Momoshiki absorbed Naruto’s chakra when he took over Boruto’s body. After losing against Boro, the group headed back to Konoha with Naruto. Naruto quickly recovered after being sent to the hospital for treatment. The Ōtsutsuki was superior during the battle between the revived Isshiki and Naruto, Sasuke, and Boruto; Kurama saw that the Ōtsutsuki could block Naruto’s sensory skills through the cubes he emitted.

Kurama suggested using a last-ditch effort that would put his life in danger after witnessing Naruto’s commitment to stop him, even if it meant losing his life. Kurama warned him not to make superfluous motions or movements based on irrational thoughts as that would be the key to maintaining Baryon Mode working and compared it to nuclear fusion and described how it utilized both of their chakras to generate a new sort of energy.

As a result of the interconnectedness of all chakra, Kurama also informed him that operating in this state would shorten Isshiki’s life expectancy. Naruto was instructed to continue assaulting Isshiki until he had expended all of his life before killing him. Naruto consented to use it after placing it in front of Isshiki and saying he was prepared to pass away the minute he decided to become Hokage.

Then Kurama switched Naruto into Baryon Mode. Isshiki was forced to submit by Naruto using this new maneuver, which involved avoiding and parrying his punches. Naruto was rapidly affected by Baryon Mode’s effects. He was able to significantly shorten Isshiki’s life, though. Isshiki struck Naruto hard, and as a result, Baryon Mode was turned off.

After Isshiki passed away, Naruto went into Baryon Mode and lost consciousness. Kurama prepared himself for the last talk he would have with Naruto, who assured him that he had no regrets about killing his parents and was grateful for Kurama’s constant support. Kurama showed Naruto that the true cost of Baryon Mode was simply his life, despite reassuring him that his oncoming fainting was only a shock from losing the Tailed Beast chakra from within him.

Since Kurama knew that Naruto would not put his life in danger to gain power, he claimed that he never actually told him the truth, rather withheld it from him. Before vanishing, Kurama instructed Naruto to keep an eye out for himself and warned him to be careful because he would no longer be able to use his powers. Then Kurama looks to have died and vanishes. Kurama’s story in the franchise came to an end at that point.

There is no known way through which Kurama could come back to life, which means that his death is – for now – permanent. As we have said, an out-of-the-blue solution doesn’t seem highly likely, but you can never know with manga authors. Be that as it may, Kurama’s death is the principal reason why Himawari does not have Kurama’s chakra, why she won’t have Kurama’s chakra, and why she will not become a Jinchūriki, at least not Kurama’s.
