‘Naruto’ is one of the big three anime of the anime world. The anime is famous for its plot, character growth, and of course the tailed beasts. One beast that is quite popular among the fans is Kurama. Kurama is the nine-tailed beast. Uzumaki Naruto used to be his jinchuriki before Kurama died in ‘Boruto’.
Fans were extremely saddened by his death as he became one of the central characters in the series. They wish to know if there is any way for Naruto to get Kurama back.

Who Is Kurama?
Kurama is the nine-tailed beast. The tailed beasts were made by Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki when he split the Chakra of the ten tails, or the Juubi, into nine different parts. Each beast has tails, and their names correspond with the number of tails each beast has. Many fans speculate that the more tails a beast has, the stronger that beast is. It was also mentioned by Kurama, but the one-tailed beast denied it.
The nine-tailed beast didn’t use to hate humans in the beginning. He was unfortunately used by multiple people in the past as a weapon and that caused him to harbor a grudge against humanity. Because of this he never bonded with his hosts and often fought them for control. However, he did bond with Naruto Uzumaki towards the end.
Appearance-wise, Kurama looks like a fox but with nine tails. Personality-wise, Kurama is very proud and smart. He considers himself the strongest of the beasts and is quite confident about his powers. During the Pain arc, Kurama got mad at Naruto for not using his powers and relying on the sage mode. Naruto loses Kurama in ‘Boruto’ when he was fighting Jigen and used the Baryon mode. This makes fans curious about whether there is any way he can get him back.
How Can Naruto Regain Kurama?
As mentioned above, Naruto lost Kurama during his fight with Jigen. Tailed beasts are made purely of chakra and when they exhaust their chakra, they disappear. This was mentioned by Hagoromo, he also said that tailed beasts get resurrected after they use up their chakra. Kurama will be resurrected after a very long time. Naturally, he wouldn’t be resurrected long after Naruto dies.
Fans believe it is possible to revive him by extracting the chakra from other tailed beasts and reviving him. However, that is not possible, because it would be difficult to track down the tailed beasts and extract their chakra. It would be even more difficult to resurrect him through it.
In addition to that, Kurama’s death was symbolic in ‘Boruto’. It was done to make the fans realize that the age of Uzumaki Naruto was over and he was no longer the strongest character in the series. Whilst Naruto didn’t become weak by any means, he most definitely lost a significant amount of power. Due to the difficult method of resurrection and the symbolism of his death, it is highly unlikely that he would be revived in the series.
