Kagurabachi Chapter 24 recap
Chapter 24, titled Hunters, begins with Shiba realizing that the Tou (Sazanami's elite guards) are far more formidable than the sorcerers he faced at Sojo's hideout. Meanwhile, Kyora Sazanami feels that he has a better chance of stealing Chihiro's blade with the Tou than alone.
After surmising the situation, Shiba suggests to Chihiro they retreat. However, he doesn't agree. Instead, Chihiro cloaks himself with Nishiki and prepares to face his opponents.
The chapter then moves to a flashback, where Shiba reveals Kamunabi's auction plan to Chihiro, as leaked by Azami. Chihiro remembers how his father, Kunishige Rokuhira once told him that the Shinuchi blade must never be used.
Since the Kamunabi with their unlimited source are guaranteed to win the bidding at the auction, stealing the Shinuchi blade before the Rakuzaichi is the only choice Chihiro has.
Elsewhere, Soya Sazanami is delighted to see his younger brother Hakuri. He tells him to come back to the family. However, Hakuri says that he's no longer part of the family.
The chapter reveals that Soya Sazanami loves his younger brother, but the way he expresses his love is equivalent to abuse. He even possibly killed a woman he felt was harmful to his brother. At that moment, Hinao arrives at the scene.
Soya thinks Hinao has possibly brainwashed Hakuri's mind, so he decides to kill her. However, Shiba comes to her rescue. He punches Soya Sazanami in the face and then takes him to the sky using his teleportation sorcery skill.
Hinao reveals to Hakuri an ingenious plan she crafted, where if she called Shiba and cut the line after one ring, he would teleport to her location using his magic.
Elsewhere, the chapter shows Chihiro facing the Tou alone. Before Shiba left, he assured him that he would be fine. The chapter ends with Kyora Sazanami wondering about the battle's outcome.
What to expect in Kagurabachi Chapter 25 (speculative)
Kagurabachi Chapter 25 will likely showcase Chihiro's battle against the Sazanami elite guards. It will be interesting to see how he can put up a fight against three formidable sorcerers.
On the other side, Kagurabachi Chapter 25 may continue with the Shiba vs Soya Sazanami battle. There's a possibility that he may try to escape with Hakuri and Hinao, rather than spend too much time fighting the Sazanami elite guard.
