Gachiakuta chapter 123 is scheduled to be released on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, at 12 am ST in Japan. Yet, due to the differences in time zones, most manga enthusiasts can read the chapter on January 14, 2025. Since there's no official announcement on the manga going on a break yet, interested fans can access the chapter on Kodansha's K-Manga service next week.

In the previous chapter, Follo finally revealed his actual feelings, as he lashed out at Rudo for constantly looking down on him. He also made some nasty comments about Rudo's past, accusing him of using his past as a shield to get forgiveness from people. However, Rudo didn't back down and reminded him of his own shortcomings. Given how the chapter ended, fans can't wait for the release of Gachiakuta chapter 123.

Picking up the events from the previous chapter, Gachiakuta chapter 122 begins with Follo letting out his pent-up emotions, revealing his true feelings. Discarding his previous perception, Follo realizes Rudo is just like everyone else, who will never understand what it feels like to be part of a "faceless mob."

Rudo doesn't comprehend Follo's emotional outburst, so he asks him to stand back. However, it only infuriates him further, as he vehemently asks why he should do that. Although Follo knows it's not possible to defeat a Trash Beast as a non-Giver, it doesn't mean he has no right to fight.

According to the chapter, Follo is tired of being treated as a "tag along" and of people like Rudo, who looks down on others. Rudo finally responds to Follo's accusations, asking when he has ever looked down upon anyone. Follo's inferiority complex gets the better of him, and he comments on Rudo's past.

He thinks Rudo is using his tragic backstory, i.e., his misery as a shield to get forgiveness from people. Follo's cold words finally get to Rudo, who calmly reminds him that he's the one who's using his life as a shield to lash out.

The chapter then shows Follo punching Rudo's face to throw off his mask. The chapter ends with Rudo staring down at Follo, who takes out his weapon. Meanwhile, Gris is seen trying to calm down Follo.

Considering how the latest chapter ended, Gachiakuta chapter 123 will likely show a face-off between Rudo and Follo. It was only a matter of time before Follo's emotions would have exploded. It seems Kei Urana has chosen the perfect time to show the boy's true emotions.

Fueled by an inferiority complex, Follo wanted to be acknowledged. However, Rudo doesn't quite understand his comrade's true emotions. As such, a mini duel between them could settle the growing enmity of Follo toward Rudo. At the same time, his enmity could help him awaken his powers as a Giver in Gachiakuta chapter 123.
