In the previous chapter, Hiruhiko used the innocent people in the theatre as hostages to put Chihiro in a dilemma. The Hishaku sorcerer wanted to see what Chihiro would do. The Enten user recalled a conversation he had with Samura and embraced being a sinner. He enveloped his surroundings with Kuro, saved the hostages, and defeated Hiruhiko.

Kagurabachi chapter 53 recap

The chapter begins with a flashback scene, where Samura teaches Chihiro swordsmanship. When Chihiro looks at Samura admiringly, he pokes his eyes and reminds him of how many people he has killed. He adds that the real battlefield is vastly different from slicing straws.

After that, the chapter switches to Chihiro's battle against Hiruhiko. The Hishaku sorcerer feels he and Chihiro can become friends if they try to kill each other. Yet, he doesn't go for close-range combat but rather settles for long-range tactics.

Hiruhiko even uses innocent bystanders in the theatre as hostages to restrict Chihiro from going berserk. The Hishaku sorcerer's origami papers entrap the people within the Enten user's range. When Chihiro tries to help one of them, they perceive him as a monster.

Hiruhiko then wonders what Chihiro would do. The Hishaku sorcerer feels Chihiro shouldn't try to act like a hero since he has killed many men. Rather than fighting back, Chihiro Rokuhira takes Hiruhiko's flesh-eating paper cranes head-on.

Just then, the chapter delves into another flashback, where Samura tells Chihiro that when he killed someone for the first time, the image of their severed flesh was engraved within his eyes. Even though he blinded himself, he couldn't forget the horrific image.

Even though he picked up an Enchanted Blade later, he still perceived himself as a sinner. Back to the present, Chihiro finally understands the guilt-ridden path his father and the Enchanted Blade bearers walked in the past. He apologizes to them since he's walking on the same path.

The chapter then shows Chihiro Rokihira enveloping his surroundings with Kuro. Amid the pitch-black darkness, Chihiro severs Hiruhiko's arms and corners him. He tells Hiruhiko that he's as much as a sinner.

Ad

As such, he wants to refrain from causing trouble to others and take the Hishaku to Hell with him. The chapter ends with Chihiro interrogating the Hiruhiko about the Hishaku organization.

Kagurabachi chapter 54 will likely show the aftermath of Chihiro's battle with Hiruhiko. Although Chihiro has defeated the Hishaku sorcerer, it remains to be seen whether he has any other tricks up his sleeves.

Ad

Chihiro would like to get as much intel on Hishaku as possible from Hishaku. Besides that, Kagurabachi chapter 54 could shift the focus to the Senkutsuji Temple and show the blind swordsman's status. If everything goes well, Chihiro could reunite with Samura in the next chapter.
