In the previous Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter, Amado stops Kawaki from getting his upgrade. Meanwhile in the Sand Village, Araya uses Lodestone Sand Sealing Blade made from Shinki’s Iron Sand to free Sarada and the team from Ryu while Matsuri captures Konohamaru after the latter rejects her.

The first sneak peek is a rare treat as we first get the cover for the chapter and thus its title.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 19 is titled, “Konohamaru-chan”.

The side text says: “In Slumber, Shadows Yearn”

The cover shows Moegi Kazamatsuri, the original counterpart of the sentient Shinju Matsuri, who shares her feelings for Konohamaru Sarutobi, her longtime teammate.

The light yellow and brown colors match not only her design but also her connection to the Wood Style, the famed Kekkei Genkai of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.

In Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, Volume 4’s Moegi’s Profile, we learn that Moegi is a user of Wood Style, combining her inherent Earth and Water Natures, and can perform two Wood jutsu: the Wood Style: Verdure Technique and Wood Style: Vegetation Barrier.

As the name suggests, the first technique seems to be a simple, garden variety, quite literally, of the Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence that produces trees, as vegetation comes out instead of full-blown trees.

The second one looks to be a barrier made of vegetation, which makes it a softer counterpart to the First Hokage’s durable Wood Style.

However, with how the Kekkei Genkai is tied to Hashirama cells, it is undisclosed how Moegi can even perform it without Hashirama cells.

Will we witness Matsuri applying Moegi’s Wood Style before Moegi does so herself?

The thing is that Wood Style is inherent in ALL sentient God Trees, so why would Matsuri use a weaker version in battle or will Konohamaru notice a connection between a Shinju’s Wood Style and his friend’s?

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 19 will be officially released on February 20, 2025.

The next chapter, Chapter 20, will be around March 20, 2025 and will be the last chapter for Volume 5.
