Manga fans have the option to access Kagurabachi chapter 28 through various Shueisha-affiliated platforms, such as the MangaPlus site, MangaPlus app, Shonen Jump+ app, and Viz Media’s official site, in digital format.

Summary of Kagurabachi Chapter 27

Chapter 27, titled “Mr. Inazuma,”starts with Kyora Sazanami completing the necessary arrangements for the auction. He ponders over the fact that Chihiro Rokuhira has yet to take any action, despite the Enten being enlisted for five days now.

Additionally, a mysterious individual sporting a mustache and round glasses converses with Shiba in another location. He discloses that individuals from the criminal world congregate at the auction, but only a maximum of three are granted access to the subterranean auction hall.

The rest of the group remains outside to patrol the area, while the Sazanami members are in charge of securing the underground. The man proceeds to point out a leaflet showcasing Chihiro Rokuhira’s profile and the promised reward of 50 million yen for anyone who can deliver his body.

The mysterious man proceeds to disclose how the entire city turns a blind eye to the corruption during the Rakuzaichi auction, resulting in a city-wide slumber. As a result, the security outside the building has little to no work to do.

At that time, the chapter introduces Yuu Inazuma, a young boy who enters the Rakuzaichi building in search of his sister. It is revealed that his sister has been presented as “merchandise”at the auction.

Despite the guards apprehending him, he manages to pull out a pocket knife and thrust it into one of their hands. Surprisingly, Chihiro Rokuhira arrives at the building unscathed. Shiba realizes that Chihiro had already made his move, most likely in response to the chaos happening below.

Despite fooling the man with the round glasses, Shiba rushes to Chihiro’s aid. As this unfolds, Yuu Inazuma recalls his sister’s words about the Lightning only striking “bad”individuals, not innocent children.

Despite his teary eyes, he summons the bravery to defend himself. Just then, Chihiro Rokuhira emerges, swiftly slicing the guard’s hand and releasing Yuu. Abruptly, the chandelier plummets from above, resulting in a sudden power outage.

Despite the guards’ warnings, they reassure each other that there is no need to fear Chihiro as he does not possess an Enchanted Blade. The story then shifts to a flashback featuring Chihiro and Shiba.

The previous individual informed his mentor that he would handle the undesirable individuals because he had made the decision to take on the responsibility.

Kagurabachi chapter 27 brings us back to the present, where we see Chihiro pulling out Kuregumo from its sheath and chanting Mei as sparks of lightning crackle around him. The chapter concludes with the clock striking twelve and Kyora Sazanami starting the highly anticipated Rakuzaichi auction.

With the latest chapter leaving off on a captivating cliffhanger, it is highly probable that Kagurabachi chapter 28 will reveal how Chihiro successfully repaired his damaged Kuregumo (Cloud Gouger) blade, which had been broken in his intense battle against Genichi Sojo.

Additionally, it has been confirmed that the use of an Enchanted Blade is only possible upon the death of its original owner. As Chihiro was able to successfully wield Kuregumo’s powers, it can be inferred that Sojo has indeed passed away.

In addition to depicting Chihiro’s acquisition of Kuregumo, Kagurabachi chapter 28 may also shed light on the status of his injured hands and any potential healing. There is speculation that his right hand may be prosthetic, but this can only be confirmed in upcoming chapters.

It is unclear at this point if the next chapter will jump right into the auction. Therefore, readers can anticipate the introduction of new characters in chapter 28 as well.

The 27th chapter of Kagurabachi is fully highlighted.

In the manga, Chihiro’s character is parallel to that of Batman.

The Kagurabachi manga will be released in English print during the Fall of 2024.

The first volume of Kagurabachi is sold out in major online stores.
