Kagurabachi Chapter 47 Summary
Kagurabachi Chapter 47 is titled 'Uruha' and begins with Yoji Uruha, the contract user of the Enchanted Blade Kumeyuri, recalling his past. Eighteen years ago, Kunishige Rokuhira entrusted Kumeyuri to Uruha during the Seitei War, which Uruha considers the pinnacle of his life due to his admiration for Kunishige.
After the war, Uruha returned the sword and for fifteen years, nothing was heard of Kunishige until an elite mage Kamunabi informed him of Kunishige's death at the hands of Hishaku. The group also stole all the Enchanted Swords and killed Misaka, who carried Cloud Gouger.
Since then, Kamunabi has been protecting the remaining Blade Contractors, including Uruha, who is currently hiding in Kokugoku Fortress. Kagurabachi Chapter 47 then moves to a more recent past, when the fortress was invaded by Hishaku.
In the present, Uruha is seen arriving at a train station where he meets Hakuri Sanazami. The two exchange a brief greeting before Hishaku attacks again. Hakuri attempts but fails to protect Uruha due to his weakened powers. Uruha then fights the assassins with his sword, but they are soon overwhelmed.
They retreat to a subway car where more assassins are waiting. Just as Uruha despairs, Chihiro Rokuhira appears, using the Enten sword to kill the attackers. He promises to protect Uruha, who recognizes the similarities between Chihiro and Kunishige. Kagurabachi Chapter 47 ends with him declaring that he will fight for Rokuhira once again.
