Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 25
Boruto Manga Chapter 25 Full Spoiler Breakdown
Chapter 25 isn’t just another manga release—it’s pure hype and a massive shift in the story that changes the rules of the game for every key character. Sarada finally admits her feelings for Boruto, we get the long-awaited triumphant return of Momoshiki, and an incredible look at Himawari’s training with Kurama. But the most chilling part is the heart-wrenching conversation between Boruto and Momoshiki that could decide the fate of the entire world. And then Boruto drops the line: “Once I take down Jura, my body’s yours.” That’s the kind of sentence that sends shivers down your spine.
Let’s dive into a full breakdown of this truly phenomenal chapter.
The Cover
Right off the bat, the creators throw us a curveball. We see Himawari with Kurama’s image looming behind her. Honestly, I expected Boruto in a new epic pose, Kawaki in emotional turmoil, or maybe even the mysterious Jura. But Himawari? Totally unexpected—yet absolutely the right choice.
The cover doesn’t just show off her updated design. It’s a bold statement about her new role in the story. This isn’t just pretty artwork, it’s a promise—that Himawari’s story will be just as important and thrilling as Boruto’s. It’s a visual confirmation of Ikemoto’s words about her limitless potential. This decision is fresh, daring, and sets the perfect tone for the whole chapter.
Sarada’s Confession
Now for the moment that made millions of readers’ hearts race: the Sarada and Sumire scene. This isn’t just a conversation—it’s the payoff of a years-long subplot going all the way back to early Boruto.
Remember when Sumire, the class rep, asked Sarada if she liked Boruto? Back then, Sumire confessed her own feelings while Sarada dodged the question, hiding behind indifference. Since then, that question has lingered, creating subtle tension. And now, the dam finally breaks.
Sarada admits: “Sumire, I love Boruto too.”
Time stops. The love triangle fans have debated for so long finally takes shape. While Boruto’s bond with Sarada has always felt like the emotional core of the story, seeing her finally vulnerable and honest is incredibly moving. Sumire, wise and understanding as always, nudges her toward this confession, reminding her of their old talk and how long she has kept it inside.
Then there’s the third, invisible participant—Eida. The all-seeing gossip queen can’t resist eavesdropping. Her reaction is priceless: pure shock. And that’s significant. Eida, whose ability forces people to adore her, likely can’t truly grasp the nature of real, earned love. Her surprise only underscores the authenticity of Sarada’s feelings.
Meanwhile, Sumire’s calm and composed reaction shows her emotional intelligence. She’s seen through Sarada’s facade all along. There’s no jealousy or anger, only dignity and maybe even relief. She acts not as a rival but as a true friend and confidant.
This moment is bigger than romance. It’s tied to Sarada’s dream of becoming Hokage. Now, her ambition has deeper meaning—not for power or fame, but to protect the village and create a world Boruto can return to. She wants to stand by his side, his support, his light in the dark. Her love for Boruto is now one of the story’s central pillars.
Himawari and Kurama
Shifting from emotions to action, we witness something equally epic: Himawari’s training with Kurama. The way she sits—focused and centered, with the Nine-Tails raging behind her—is pure art. It echoes Naruto’s iconic pose during sage training.
Their sparring isn’t just fighting; it’s a lesson in the philosophy of battle. Kurama scolds her, saying it’s not about style, strength, or flashy moves. It’s about core control and common sense. “Think of yourself as the literal embodiment of chakra,” he says. “Everything starts there. You are chakra. Now try to act in a way that defies your own common sense.”
After dropping this wisdom, he simply falls asleep—classic Kurama. He won’t hold her hand. Instead, he forces her to figure it out herself.
Unlike Naruto, who was Kurama’s container, Himawari embodies something new. Kurama’s chakra is now inseparable from her. She doesn’t just wield the power—she is the power. Once she fully embraces that, she’ll become a free, untamed force of nature. Ikemoto’s claim that her potential rivals Boruto’s now feels real. We’re witnessing the birth of a completely new kind of fighter.
Momoshiki’s Return and Boruto’s Risk
The darkest and most shocking part of the chapter comes with Momoshiki’s return and his talk with Boruto. Their dynamic has changed. Boruto mocks him as a freeloader, showing he no longer fears him.
Momoshiki, dramatic as ever, points out that Boruto cheated death again and suggests he should have let Kawaki kill him back then. But Boruto gets to the point: “I have a proposal. Lend me your power just this once.”
Momoshiki laughs—until Boruto drops the bomb: “If I can take down Jura, then my body, I’ll give it to you.”
This opens terrifying possibilities.
Option one: Boruto is bluffing. Like Sasuke with Orochimaru, he plans to buy time and trick Momoshiki later. Risky and bold, but very Boruto.
Option two: He means it. Boruto, faced with the monstrous threat of Jura and his Shinju clones, might truly be willing to sacrifice himself. That would be the ultimate act of the Will of Fire—saving everyone at the cost of his own soul.
Either way, this marks Boruto’s final step into adulthood. He’s no longer a kid playing ninja. He’s a soldier in a cosmic war, making impossible choices with consequences that will echo throughout the story.
Predictions for Chapter 26
Where does the plot go next? Two possibilities stand out:
- Boruto with Momoshiki’s backup fights Jura at full karma power, gaining a new level of strength. He either defeats Jura or forces him to retreat. This sets up a “Save Boruto” arc, with Sasuke, Sarada, and Kashin Koji racing to stop his final Ōtsutsuki transformation and undo the deal.
- Momoshiki bides his time. In the middle of the Jura fight, when Boruto is exhausted, Momoshiki seizes his body. Not to help Jura, but to eliminate both Boruto and Jura, becoming the sole supreme being. Boruto is forced into a two-front war—against the Shinju outside and for his own soul inside. Just as Himawari grows under Kurama’s guidance, Boruto’s evolution may hinge on Toneri, Sasuke & Koji’s roles in his Jougan awakening.
Final Thoughts
This chapter was a gift to fans. It pushed key plotlines forward, deepened character arcs, and set an insanely high bar for what’s next. From romance and personal growth to existential horror and deals with demons, Chapter 25 had it all. His journey from novice shinobi to near-Ōtsutsuki dominance is epic—if you need a refresher, see our full breakdown of Boruto’s abilities before the time skip.
So what do you think? Is Sarada’s confession the start of a great love story or a tragedy? Was Boruto’s deal with Momoshiki a brilliant tactical move or a fatal mistake? And whose potential scares you more—Himawari with her Kurama fusion, or Boruto with his Ōtsutsuki power?
And the big question: does Boruto really think Sarada will let him sacrifice himself? Not likely. To fully grasp how chapter 25 raises the stakes, revisit the key events leading up to Two Blue Vortex in our pre-arc recap.
