Iori's father, Seiichi Samura, arrives at his former wife, Inori's home after learning that she has fainted. However, Iori doesn't recollect him at all and rather stares at him with hostile eyes.Inori mentions that it's to be expected since he's never around. The memories then shift to Inori at the hospital, requesting Samura to take care of Iori til she gets better. Although Seiichi Samura doesn't want to do it, Inori reminds him of his duties. Samura then takes Iori to a dojo and introduces her to everyone.Iori, Inori, and Seiichi Samura (Image via Shueisha)They all tell Iori about her father's heroics in the Seitei War. However, Iori is least bothered about such tales. Rather, she badmouths Samura for abandoning her mother. Yet, gradually they develop a bond. Iori begins practicing kendo and mimics Samura's blindness. She charges at his father with her eyes closed.At the same time, the duo engages in cooking competitions to see who can make the tastiest meal. Iori even makes her mother try some of their cooking. However, the happiness doesn't last long, as Inori dies. The chapter reveals that Inori was suffering from an incurable disease.Seiichi Samura consoles his daughter (Image via Shueisha)Sometime before her death, she urges Samura to take care of their daughter. A panel then shows Iori breaking down in tears after her mother's funeral. Samura hesitates at first but eventually puts his arms around her. Sometime after, Yura visits Samura's house.He says that he has come to talk to him about the sins the Enchanted Blade wielders have committed.

(speculative)The horrific scene of a ruined city, as seen in chapter 71 (Image via Shueisha)Considering the way the latest chapter ended, Kagurabachi chapter 72 will likely return to the present and show Iori reacting to the sealed memories that have returned to her. There's a possibility that Iori knew Chihiro in the past since her memories were sealed after Kunishige's death.Chihiro might have been unaware of Iori primarily due to the seal, which affects others as well. Therefore, Kagurabachi chapter 72 could show an interesting situation between Iori and Chihiro. In addition, the chapter might reveal Hiruhiko's status, who has been cut down by Chihiro in chapter 70.Also read:Kagurabachi chapter 71 full highlightsOne Piece chapter 1143 release date and timeKagurabachi anime reportedly greenlit under CyberAgent and Shochiku
