Yoji Uruha steadily grew to become probably the most likable facet characters in Kagurabachi. Whether or not it was his reverence for Kunishige Rokuhira, or his character, nothing stopped us readers from loving the character.
Nonetheless, Kagurabachi chapter 57 ended on a cliffhanger, leaving many individuals questioning what occurred to the character.
And in Chapter 58, creator Takeru Hokazono decisively confirmed Uruha’s destiny, sending shockwaves by way of the fandom.
Is Uruha lifeless?
To reply briefly, Yoji Uruha is lifeless. He was killed by Samura in Senkutsugi Temple in Kagurabachi chapter 58.
To be honest, the trace about Uruha’s demise was subtly dropped within the earlier chapter.
When Hiruhiko took the sword Kumeyuri and unsheathed it, it was clear that one thing ominous had occurred.
Nonetheless, since Kyora Sazanami was in a position to make use of the Shinuchi’s powers although the Swordmaster was alive, there was some hope that Hiruhiko did one thing comparable.
However when Kagurabachi chapter 58 got here, all these hopes had been dashed. Hiruhiko wasn’t mendacity.
Certainly, Samura had his sights set on eliminating the Sword Bearers, and his causes had been revealed in his confrontation with Uruha.
In his eyes, there was no higher evil than the enchanted swordbearers themselves. And since he had began wielding Tobimune once more, he needed to verify he eradicated all evil this time.
It was Samura’s method of respecting Kunishige and his cause for creating the enchanted swords.
Nonetheless, Uruha couldn’t absolutely settle for this reasoning. After seeing individuals sacrifice their lives to guard him, he refused to face by and let Samura finish his life.
Moreover, Uruha feared that the Hishaku would solely develop stronger if extra enchanted swords fell into their palms.
And so the 2 determined to confront one another.
Whereas their dialog hinted at some untold historical past behind the Sword Bearers and their position through the warfare Hokazono is making ready, it was really devastating to see them go face to face.
The tragic duel between grasp and scholar
As Samura’s scholar, Uruha seemed as much as him with the utmost respect, making their battle fairly a tragic end result.
To be honest, Uruha did not utterly disagree with Samura’s place.
Relatively than rejecting Samura’s reasoning outright, he acknowledged its validity to some extent, combating solely in self-defense.
The 2 finally clashed, utilizing their iai White Purity Type methods. Sadly, Samura’s blade was quicker, piercing Uruha’s chest and fatally wounding him.
Even in his remaining moments, Uruha didn’t attempt to beg for his life, however was extra involved about the truth that his grasp determined to hold the burden all by himself. I could not deal with it anymore at that second ;-;.
The blind swordsman picked up Tobimune and replied that he wouldn’t put anybody else by way of such hell. With that, Samura delivered a second, merciful assault, giving Uruha a fast demise.
In the long run, each Samura and Uruha stood agency to their rules.
Samura, each bodily and metaphorically blind to the grey areas of human motion, positioned himself because the hand of justice. For him, wielding Tobimune once more was not a alternative however a accountability – a instrument to cleanse the world of what he thought-about the best evil.
Then again, Uruha represented a contrasting perspective. Whereas he didn’t utterly reject Samura’s reasoning, he fought to protect a life that bore the sacrifices of others. Uruha’s existence was not simply his personal; it was constructed on the lives and sacrifices of those that protected him.
This conflict between the 2 was not merely a confrontation between grasp and scholar, however a tragic conflict of two equal views. And the tragedy of this encounter lies in the truth that neither was inherently mistaken.
I’ll miss you Yoji Uruha! Nonetheless, I nonetheless cannot deliver myself to hate Samura.
Uruha’s demise not solely marks a tragic turning level, but additionally raises questions for the additional story.
It is clear from Samura’s actions that he intends to seek out all sword wielders, however does this additionally apply to Chihiro, who wields an enchanted blade himself?
And the way will Chihiro react to Samura’s campaign towards sword bearers? And which secrets and techniques from the previous will come to gentle? One factor is definite: Hokazono is fastidiously crafting a narrative that guarantees to be as heartbreaking as it’s compelling.
