Two Classic Naruto Characters Finally Get Their Moment After Months of Waiting

by

In the spin-off series, Boruto, several characters from the Naruto series have surprisingly taken on larger roles than anticipated. Despite fan expectations of minimal involvement, these characters’ development in Boruto has been a pleasant surprise for many viewers. Since its debut as “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex,” this sequel has kept the story engaging by incorporating fresh elements into the original narrative. In the manga, powerful new villains known as Divine Tree entities have made an appearance. These entities are created when someone becomes consumed by the Chakra Tree and resemble their original self, but with unique consequences attached.

In the group of Divine Trees, there’s one named Matsuri who closely resembles Moegi Kazamatsuri. During the recent conflict, it was Matsuri who made a significant impact as she unveiled that these Divine Tree entities continue to carry the emotions from their original selves. Among all her feelings, it was her romantic affection for Konohamaru Sarutobi that stood out the most. Though this romantic development between them wasn’t evident in the original Naruto series, Boruto has now confirmed through the latest conflict that a growing romance exists between them. This romantic angle played a crucial role in the battle, allowing Konohamaru to eventually overcome Matsuri and rescue Moegi. Afterward, they shared a touching moment that fans had been eagerly anticipating for quite some time.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Showcases Konohamaru and Moegi’s Bond Solidifying

It came as a surprise to fans that there was a developing relationship between Konohamaru and Moegi, but this was made clear in Chapter 18 of “Two Blue Vortex” through Matsuri, who is the Divine Tree version of Moegi. Throughout the series, Matsuri frequently expressed a strong longing to call Konohamaru affectionately and had an urge to consume him, which is a feeling that Divine Tree entities only have for their most beloved. Despite this, Konohamaru made it clear in resistance that he wanted only one person to call him in such a way, hinting at a romantic connection between himself and Moegi. In the latest chapter, Chapter 25 of “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex,” we witnessed a touching moment as Konohamaru tightly embraced Moegi after her restoration, further strengthening their romantic bond.

It’s worth mentioning that the storyline in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex isn’t solely centering on Konohamaru and Moegi; instead, romance is becoming a significant aspect across the series. For instance, Jura, the leader of the Divine Tree clones, has been emphasizing the idea of “love.” This theme reaches its peak in Sarada Uchiha, who finds courage through her feelings for Boruto and her commitment to safeguard him. In the recent chapter, Sarada expressed her feelings for Boruto to Sumire, who also harbors affection for him. As a result, a unique relationship developed between them, encompassing both romantic rivalry and friendship. This suggests that “love” is being woven as a central motif in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, and it might play a crucial role in overcoming the final enemy.
