Samura advances and demonstrates his superiority in combat
The chapter begins with Samura emerging from the sky, wielding his Tobimune blade. His black wings vanish into thin air, leaving behind only raven feathers. Iori watches his father, who carries a cold, menacing aura.
Toto, sensing Samura's murderous intent, suggests immediate retreat, but Hiruhiko hesitates, believing that Iori's presence could curb the blind swordsman's impulses.
Hesitation costs dearly. In an instant, Samura decapitates Hiruhiko and Toto. Iori is shocked to witness the murder. Samura uses his crow feathers to perceive his surroundings.
The “Crow” ability allows him to switch places with these feathers, which justifies his reputation as the fastest among the wielders of enchanted blades.
The battle reveals the powers of the Kumeyuri in Kagurabachi
The scene takes an unexpected turn when Hiruhiko's decapitated head begins to speak. What appeared to be a massacre turns out to be a well-executed trap. The enchanted blade Kumeyuri, wielded by Hiruhiko, melts like liquid, revealing it was all an illusion.
A new panel shows two geisha serving sake from a bowl. This is the Kumeyuri's "En" ability, which induces hallucinations through intoxication. Hiruhiko activates the power before Samura's attack and manages to escape with Toto undetected.
Iori and Samura: emotional tension and memory manipulation
After the shock of the illusion, Samura realizes his daughter's presence and orders Rou to reverse the release of Iori's memory seal. Rou then confirms that Iori broke the seal on his own.
Samura orders Iori's memories sealed again. However, outraged, she confronts her father and tells him he never listened to her words. Samura, in turn, can't respond, only gritting his teeth at the accusation.
Chihiro springs into action as Hishaku prepares offensive in Tokyo
Chihiro, impacted by Samura's performance and the Kumeyuri's illusion, decides to act. He uses the "Kuro: Shred" technique and rushes toward Samura, demanding that he protect Iori. Samura responds by eliminating the Hishaku members who were threatening his daughter.
Meanwhile, Chihiro sets off in pursuit of Hiruhiko, who is hiding with Toto, possibly still inside the hotel. Chihiro believes that, as a newcomer, Hiruhiko won't be able to expand the Kumeyuri's reach much. This hypothesis is confirmed when he locates the two and engages them in direct combat.
Amidst the fighting, Hiruhiko is determined to capture Iori, believing this may be his only chance. Toto tries to convince him to back off, reminding him of his injuries, but Hiruhiko insists. The conversation reveals that they have a long history together, and that now is not the time to run away.
Conflict intensifies with Hishaku's strategic moves
At the end of the Kagurabachi chapter, spoilers shift focus to Tokyo, where Yura and another Hishaku member prepare an attack on the Kamunabi headquarters, which is hidden underground.
Yura recognizes that Samura is his most powerful asset, but understands that he will need to be manipulated—and even destroyed—for the Hishaku to gain the upper hand. The plan positions Iori as a key player and indicates a possible second offensive if the situation in Kyoto worsens.
Perspectives for the next chapters of Kagurabachi
Chapter 75 of Kagurabachi promises to be one of the most strategic and revealing yet. The Kumeyuri blade's illusory abilities add a new layer to the world of enchanted blades, while the psychological clash between Samura and Iori deepens the family conflicts that permeate the plot.
Finally, with the threat of Hishaku approaching Kamunabi headquarters, readers should prepare for even more intense twists and turns in the coming chapters. The fight for control of the enchanted blades is far from over—and everything indicates that the worst is yet to come.
