Sakamoto Days Chapter 167 recap
Titled Peering Into The Abyss, Sakamoto Days Chapter 167 starts moments before Takamura kills Hamura as Takamura expresses his contempt for what he considers a world full of unworthy individuals. Haruma pushes Uzuki out of the way before being brutally cut in two.
As Uzuki watches in shock, Takamura sheathes his katana and advances just as Sakamoto and Nagumo make a desperate move to flank him. Armed with a bench and a staff respectively, they attempt to halt his progress despite their severe injuries. However, their efforts are in vain as Takamura effortlessly blocks their attacks and casts them aside with ease, and retaliates.
Gaku then leaps into the fray, wielding his mace. When Takamura tries to stab him in the face with his katana, Gaku catches the blade in his mouth and snaps off the tip in Sakamoto Days Chapter 167. He then seizes Takamura by the collar and uses the broken fragment of the blade to slash across Takamura's face, successfully taking out his right eye.

Gaku is ultimately stabbed in the heart by Takamura in the same move. After Gaku falls, Takamura turns his attention back to Sakamoto and Nagumo. Unable to even see his attack coming, the two are immediately struck down. They fall, convinced of their own hopelessness and Takamura's seeming invincibility.
Takamura then steadily advances towards the defenseless Uzuki. Overwhelmed by the traumatic events unfolding around him, Uzuki is flooded with memories of his past, including his time with Gaku, Haruma, and the rest of the Al-Kamar orphanage group. He also recalls Rion, his emotions boiling over as he falls to his knees in Sakamoto Days Chapter 167, clutching his head and yelling in anguish.
Uzuki's despair reaches a breaking point as he questions why he continually loses those he considers family. It seems as though he begins hearing voices in his head, a sign of his mental state fracturing under the immense stress. Sakamoto suddenly remembers his conversation with Lu Wutang, who mentioned that Uzuki likely created new personalities to deal with unbearable pain.

Just as Takamura begins to deliver a fatal blow to Uzuki, he is suddenly disarmed and split in half, mirroring the fate he had dealt to Gaku. The person responsible for this astonishing feat is none other than Uzuki himself. Driven to the brink by the overwhelming stress in Sakamoto Days Chapter 167, Uzuki has developed a new persona, one that embodies the deadliness of Takamura.
As Uzuki stands over the bisected Takamura, Sakamoto and Nagumo can only watch in disbelief. Sakamoto Days Chapter 167 concludes as Uzuki imitates Takamura’s mumbling as he holds onto the dead man’s katana.
