This article contains spoilers from the Naruto series.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has officially started a new arc, and right now it looks like it's set for the biggest arc yet. While Boruto has had some very exciting arcs in the past, the fact is that none of them can live up to the scale of the previous amazing arcs in Naruto. Such as the 4th Great Ninja War arc or the Pain arc are considered the best in the franchiseand one of the best over all anime in general.

Boruto finally reveals the perfect replacement for Naruto and Sasuke's duo

The era of Sasuke and Naruto is over, and they have been replaced by this Boruto duo instead.

Clearly, Boruto has so far failed to deliver an arc of this scale, but that's about to change very soon by the looks of it. It seems like Boruto: Two Blue Vortex new arc is going to be absolutely huge and will see some major players finally make their move, and this includes the likes of Boruto Uzumaki, Kawaki, Sarada, Himawari, Jura, Hidari, Mamushi, Eida and even Daemon. It is set to be the most packed bow in the Boruto so far, and the stakes are higher than ever before.

The Fourth Great Ninja War was the final arc of the Naruto series and it goes without saying that despite its length it lives up to expectations for the most part. While this arc certainly had its lows, such as the arrival of Kaguya Otsutsuki and that Madara Uchiha's unsatisfying deathit also had some of the very best moments of the series. Until now, Boruto has not reached such heights, and that is what the new arc will change.

The ongoing arc of Boruto focuses on Shinju Mamushiwho is known to have immense power. With her ability to divide, Mamushi is a threat to not only Konoha, but the entire world. At the same time, Jura and Hidari will be on the move while Konoha holds its breath. Shinobin will have to face three massive threats.

While Mamushi seems to be the main target right now, Hidari and Jura will also be on the move. This was confirmed by Kashin Koji's Prescience ability. Jura will be heading to Konoha and that probably has something to do with it Himawari's impending death. Similar, Hidari and Sarada seem to clash according to Koji's Prescience. Both will be moving to Konoha soon.

Major deaths will take place in the new Boruto arc

One of the reasons why many fans have high expectations for this arc is it it could see major characters die. Boruto: Two Blue Vortex haven't seen major character deaths so far. It can be changed as large death flags hover over Himawari and Eida. Their deaths happen in the future, and it remains to be seen if the future can be changed or not.

The new Boruto arc will change the entire plot of the series, especially since all the major villains, except for Code, are involved in the story. Boruto Uzumaki, Sarada Uchiha and Kawaki will surely continue to fight against Shinju and it's possible that all three will be covered here in this arc. If it happens, then the return of Sasuke Uchiha may also happen at the end of the arcwhich is good news for all fans.

More than that, there is also the threat of Momoshiki to consider. Boruto can be taken over by Momoshiki Otsutsuki in this arc based on the deal the two made. If that happens, then Konoha has a terrible threat to worry about and the fateful battle of brothers, that is, Kawaki vs Borutowill happen towards the end as well. Fans absolutely can't wait to see what's in store for the ninja world next, but one thing that can be said for sure is that the next Boruto arc is going to be absolutely sensational, and easily the most exciting since the Fourth Great Ninja War.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 29 is set for its official release on December 18, 2025. The release time of the chapter is 10:00 AM EST/3:00 PM UTC. As always, fans can read the chapter officially for free on the Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
