Kagurabachi Chapter 11 Recap
The chapter, titled “Awaken,” initiated with Chihiro Rokuhira awakening in a public hospital, having recuperated from the injuries sustained in his clash against Sojo. Upon regaining consciousness, Char’s severed leg dominated his thoughts.
Azami and Shiba arrived, updating Chihiro on Hinao and Char’s condition. While Hinao managed to survive, Char’s whereabouts remained unknown. Nonetheless, Shiba remained optimistic about the girl’s survival. Subsequently, he briefed Chihiro on the intelligence gathered from Norisaku Madoka.
According to the information, Genichi Sojo possessed fragments of Datenseki, the fundamental material for the mystical blade. It was disclosed that Datenseki, also known as Stone Ore, harbored spiritual energy. However, the unruly nature of this power posed challenges in containing and crafting a blade from it.
Kunishige Rokuhira stood as the sole figure in history who successfully stabilized the ore’s power to forge the enchanted Katanas. With Kunishige no longer alive, Sojo devised a plan to utilize the Kyonagi Clan’s DNA to stabilize the ore and create his own blade.
Hence, he abducted Char, confining her as an experimental subject in a cage. Shiba apologized to Chihiro for failing to predict Sojo’s actions. Azami then conveyed the concerns raised in the upper echelons of the Kamunabi due to the Mafia Boss’s recent actions.
In response, an elite corps of the Kamunabi group was assembled, introduced to Chihiro. One member of Kamunabi sought Chihiro’s insights into Sojo’s blade to formulate an effective plan.
Chihiro agreed, but with a condition – he insisted on being an integral part of the operation. After some deliberation, Kamunabi accepted his terms. Despite Chihiro’s physical limitations in wielding the blade for a month, he joined the squad with the determination to rescue Char.
