Kagurabachi chapter 13 recap
In Chapter 13, titled Elite, Genichi Sojo watched the Kamunabi members and longed for a match against Shiba and Azami to truly test his skills. An elite member then intervened, constructing a platform of stones for an aerial battle to minimize collateral damage.
Throughout the chapter, there were flashbacks of Chihiro Rokuhira, who briefed the squad on the Enchanted Blade, Cloud Gouger, and its three abilities: Water, Ice, and Lightning. He also cautioned them about the dangerous move "Charge" and devised a thorough plan to prevent Sojo from using it.

At Chihiro's recommendation, the Kamunabi team members launched a series of consecutive attacks on Sojo to prevent him from showcasing the Charge. In response, the mafia boss fused Water and Lightning to unleash a destructive area-of-effect maneuver.
However, the Kamunabi had foreseen this exact scenario. With the Lightning's ten-second cooldown period, the elite squad faced Sojo's combo attack head-on and countered with their own techniques, following Chihiro's advice to outsmart and defeat Sojo.

In addition to the Sojo vs. Kamunabi showdown, the chapter also depicted Chihiro uncovering Char's true whereabouts from a guard he defeated. Based on the information he obtained, the young girl was being held in a laboratory located beneath the hideout, protected by a group of formidable sorcerers.
Recalling his father's teachings about the Enchanted Blades and their ability to surpass their theoretical limits in the hands of their wielders, Chihiro found himself contemplating the potential power of these legendary weapons. The chapter concluded with a striking two-page spread showcasing both Sojo and Chihiro.
What to expect in Kagurabachi chapter 14

Based on the events of the previous issue, it is expected that in Kagurabachi chapter 14, Sojo will engage in a battle against Kamunabi sorcerers. At the end of chapter 13, it was revealed that the Datenseki, which serves as the source of an Enchanted Blade, possesses a unique characteristic that enables the blade to adapt and transform based on the abilities of its wielder. This means that an individual's determination, inherent potential, and other factors can unlock the weapon's hidden power. Consequently, there is a strong likelihood that Sojo's Cloud Gouger will surpass its limitations, enabling its wielder to execute the Charge and Lightning killer move without any cooldown.

Chapter 14 of Kagurabachi also features Chihiro Rokuhira engaging in combat against multiple sorcerers in the laboratory in order to save Char. Consequently, the main character may experience a power-up.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I am eagerly anticipating the release of Kagurabachi Chapter 14. The previous chapter left me on the edge of my seat, with Genichi Sojo facing off against the formidable Kamunabi elite members. The action sequences were incredibly well- choreographed, and I can't wait to see how Sojo overcomes the challenges that lie ahead.
I also appreciate the character development in Kagurabachi. Chihiro Rokuhira's determination to save Char and his strategic thinking during the battle against Sojo showcase his growth as a character. The exploration of the Enchanted Blades and their hidden powers adds an intriguing layer of mystery to the story, and I'm excited to learn more about their origins and capabilities.
