Recap of Kagurabachi Chapter 73
This chapter opens with Samura expressing concern for Iori’s school experience during a conversation with a dojo acquaintance. While the acquaintance reassures him of Iori’s adjustment in the small town, as they share a class, Samura cannot shake his worries. In a poignant moment, he reflects on Iori’s school challenges while addressing a photograph of his late wife.
Although Iori maintains her mother’s last name, many recognize her as Samura’s daughter. As the narrative progresses, Iori begins to excel in her classes, garnering attention by sharing stories about Samura. However, this quickly turns sour when Yura’s rumors lead to her being bullied at school and their home is vandalized with trash.
These events culminate when Samura, upon learning about Iori’s situation, decides to send her away for her safety. Flashbacks reveal Samura’s earlier discussions with Shiba, who shares unsettling news regarding the Malediction and the Prophecy, foreshadowing tragic developments like Kunishige Rokuhira’s death.
