Recap of Kagurabachi chapter 14
Chapter 14 began with Chihiro Rokuhira explaining to the Kamunabi members the insights his father had shared regarding Enchanted Blade's true realm. According to Kunishige, an Enchanted Blade can surpass its theoretical limits based on its user's resolve, willpower, and understanding of it.
Following that, the chapter saw Shiba arrive at an unknown location. A panel later, it was revealed how he and Chihiro got the intel on Sojo's other base from the defeated sorcerer. Sensing potential connections to the Hishaku, Shiba decided to go there and asked Chihiro to sneak past the guards and rescue Char.
Additionally, Shiba cautioned Chihiro against unnecessary battles, given he was injured. If there was no way to avoid it, he suggested Chihiro wait for his return. Although he followed Shiba's advice, the protagonist was ambushed by an enemy.
Chihiro did his best to counter and inflict wide-range slashes (Kuro), but his injuries prevented him from perfectly utilizing the Enchanted Blade's powers. Realizing his limitations, he strategically slashed the main lights and took cover.
Negative emotions made waves inside his mind, but that's when he remembered his father's words. His father, Kunishige Rokuhira, once advised him to not forget his "own shape" while trying to chase his dream.
Finding new resolve and calmness, Chihiro achieved a new power. He surrounded the entire field with "Kuro" and chanted "Shred". The chapter concluded with him resolving to swiftly end the battle.
What to expect in Kagurabachi chapter 15
Considering the latest issue's ending, Kagurabachi chapter 15 will likely focus on Chihiro Rokuhira's newfound power, and then shift to Genichi Sojo's battle against the Kamunabi elite forces. It's evident that Chihiro's newfound ability is more of an extension rather than an entirely new set of powers.
It is indeed an extension of his basic Kuro ability (wide-range slash). Transcending the theoretical limits, Chihiro can now summon more than black goldfish and possibly cause a wide area of effect damage to his enemies.
Similar to the protagonist, Genichi Sojo may also unlock an extension of Cloud Gouger's abilities in Kagurabachi chapter 15. While it's not confirmed, his transcendence may allow him to bypass the cooldown period of Charge, making him all the more dangerous opponent.
As such, he can deal devastating damage to the Kamunabi elite members, if not end their lives. Other than that, the chapter may also focus on Shiba's fight against the sorcerers. If it happens, fans can expect to finally see Shiba's battle prowess in Kagurabachi chapter 15.
