Kagurabachi chapter 89 recap

The chapter opens with the narrator explaining the heroics of Ibuki Misaka, the ex-wielder of the Cloud Gouger blade, who was on par with Samura. Three years ago, a Hishaku sorcerer appeared at his doorstep at the same time as Kunishige's assassination. After fighting a one-on-one battle, Misaka lost his life.

Meanwhile, at the Threat Elimination Grounds, Azami observes the corpse of the armored Hishaku sorcerer and realizes that it's a puppet. He suspects the original sorcerer must be somewhere else. At this moment, the chapter focuses on the actual armored Hishaku sorcerer, smoking at a nearby parlour.

The Hishaku sorcerer, named Hokuto, realizes that he cannot deal with the Kamunabi's "Executioner" with puppets alone. At this moment, he receives a call from his subordinate at Hishaku, who asks him to come to the Kamunabi HQ. The sorcerer reminds him that while his sorcery is potent, his actual potential lies in his swordsmanship.

With that, the Hishaku sorcerer reminds Hokuto of his feats against Misaka. However, Hokuto thinks it's aggravating to be praised for such unsatisfying feats because the Misaka he confronted wasn't the same swordsman from the Seitei War. Apparently, Hokuto never got to face a formidable opponent against whom he could showcase his skills as a swordsman.

At this moment, his subordinate informs him that Uruha is alive. The moment Hokuto hears Uruha's name, he starts losing his mind in delight. With that, he decides to head to the Kamunabi Headquarters.

Elsewhere, at Kamunabi HQ's Level Three zone, a man practices swordsmanship while listening to music via headphones. He is none other than Ibuki Misaka's brother, Natsuki Misaka. According to the chapter, Ibuki and Natsuki used to be invincible in their hometown, especially with how they complemented each other.

Eventually, they headed to Tokyo during the Seitei War and met Kunishige Rokuhira, who chose Ibuki as the wielder of the Cloud Gouger blade. Although Natsuki was talented, Rokuhira decided to give the final blade, Kumeyuri, to Uruha.

Even though Natsuki was disappointed, he remembered his brother often saying that in the world, even the slightest weakness could spell doom. That's why he adhered to this principle and continued honing his skills as a swordsman. On the contrary, Ibuki stopped caring for swords after the Seitei War and eventually perished at the hands of Hishaku.

Natsuki thought it was inevitable since his brother showed weakness. His brief monologue gets interrupted by a person who informs him about the emergency broadcast. Natsuki Misaka discovers that the Hishaku has infiltrated the headquarters. The chapter ends with Natsuki Misaka, the Commander of Kamunabi Togo Team, ready to take on the Hishaku.

Kagurabachi chapter 90 will likely redirect the focus to Kamunabi HQ's Level Five, and show Kiri Shirakai and Uruha's battle against the Hishaku forces. It remains to be seen what trump card Yura will employ against the Kamunabi's reinforcements.

Additionally, Kagurabachi chapter 90 could show Hokuto arriving at the scene and facing Uruha. Furthermore, the chapter could also focus on Chihiro and Samura, who are on their way to Tokyo.
