Expected plot in Kagurabachi Chapter 54

Kagurabachi Chapter 54 is expected to remain on the aftermath of Chihiro’s confrontation with Hirohiko. Though Hirohiko has been overpowered, the possibility of him holding back some final trick remains.

Chihiro will likely press for more information about the Hishaku, aiming to uncover their hidden plans and members. Meanwhile, there is a chance that the chapter updates fans on the events at the Senkutsuji Temple and more about Samura’s status.

Given the blind swordsman’s history and connection with Chihiro, a reunion could occur in Kagurabachi Chapter 54, especially if the situation at the temple stabilizes. The chapter may also explore the implications of Chihiro’s actions, including how he balances his self-perceived guilt with the necessity of his actions against Hishaku.

Kagurabachi Chapter 53 recap

Kagurabachi Chapter 53, titled Darkness, begins with a flashback in which Samura teaches young Chihiro swordsmanship, emphasizing the harsh reality of combat compared to mere training. He pokes Chihiro’s eyes and reminds him of the number of lives taken in battle, contrasting it with the simplicity of slicing bamboo straws.

In the present, Chihiro faces off against Hirohiko, a Hishaku sorcerer. Hirohiko, seeing a potential bond between them through their mutual experience in killing, tries to manipulate Chihiro emotionally while using hostages in the theater to prevent Chihiro from attacking recklessly.

Innocent bystanders are entrapped by Hirohiko’s origami sorcery, perceiving Chihiro as a threat in Kagurabachi Chapter 53. Despite being attacked by flesh-eating paper cranes, Chihiro does not retaliate immediately.

Chihiro contemplates Samura’s teachings and his own guilt over killing before channeling the power of his Kuro technique and enveloping the area in darkness. He disables Hirohiko by severing his arms. The chapter ends as he corners him and demands information about the Hishaku organization.
