Kagurabachi Chapter 37 Recap

The section, named Equal, opens with Shiba praising Hakuri for unlocking two unique abilities, a feat that he has not witnessed previously. He is also astonished by the sorcerer’s progress.

Hakuri informs the protagonist that Chihiro’s belief in him and decision to leave him to face Soya were the reasons for their current partnership. However, the protagonist believes that if he had interfered in Chihiro’s determination, they would not have become equal allies.

In the meantime, the rest of the Tou members wake up and make their way to the cemetery in order to prevent Chihiro and the others from entering the Storehouse. However, the chapter takes a surprising turn when it is revealed that the emergency exit door of the Storehouse has been demolished.

Kyora Sazanami took away Chihiro’s lifeline as a way to prevent them from interfering with the auctions. It seemed that the Tou members were not aware of this decision. Chihiro reflects on the death of Tenri and questions if his sacrifice was in vain.

Despite feeling that his son’s death was not in vain, Kyora acknowledges that it served a purpose in revealing Chihiro’s true intentions. On the other hand, the Tou members are determined to honor their fallen brother by preparing to face Chihiro and his allies in battle.

Subsequently, the chapter depicts Hakuri’s entrance into the auction room to confront his father. Kyora assumes that Hakuri has realized the separation of the Storehouses they oversee, despite their similar functions, now that his son has arrived.

Despite the fact that Hakuri no longer shares a familial connection, he still holds onto the belief that he can forcefully open his father’s Storehouse. Although he longs for his father’s recognition, he cannot bring himself to completely sever their bond.

Despite this, he forcefully penetrates Kyora’s subspace and inserts Chihiro Rokuhira. Kyora alters the space within his Storehouse in an attempt to restrain Chihiro, but the sorcerer manages to unleash one last Mei from his Cloud Gouger to shatter the chains.

Despite this, the blade ultimately gets destroyed as a result. This leads Chihiro to reflect on Hakuri’s unwavering conviction compared to his own. While the sorcerer boldly confronted his family to eliminate evil, Chihiro’s hands hesitated in defeating Soya and Tenri for the same cause.

Despite Chihiro Rokuhira’s wavering determination, Hakuri serves as a reminder of his original purpose. The chapter concludes with Hakuri urging Chihiro to fulfill his duty and end his father’s life. With renewed strength, the protagonist retrieves his original sword, Enten, and activates Nishiki in preparation for the upcoming battle.

In Kagurabachi chapter 38, the latest installment has masterfully prepared Chihiro Rokuhira for their upcoming battle against Kyora Sazanami. Our protagonist has successfully unleashed Nishiki, the most powerful technique of the Enten blade.

It is yet to be determined if Kyora Sazanami has any contingency plans in place for Kagurabachi chapter 38. Furthermore, the chapter may also feature Shiba’s confrontation with the remaining Tou members. Additionally, the Kamunabi may take advantage of this situation to reclaim the Shinuchi blade.
