Kagurabachi Chapter 124 is currently highly anticipated by the fandom as the story has reached a very interesting point. As we are currently still following the flashback sequences, this series continues to reshape everything we knew about Kunishige Rokuhira, the Enchanted Blades, and all the events that took place, which eventually led to the Seitei War.

In the latest chapter, we got to know about Chiaki Soga's circumstances, which are less than ideal, as her own people have taken a controversial decision for the sake of a temporary truce. Fans are awaiting to see now that Kunishige has received the farewell letter, what might happen next.

According to official sources, it has been confirmed that Kagurabachi Chapter 124 is going to be released on June 7, 2026. As usual, the chapter will be available to read for free on Shueisha Manga Plus and Viz Media. The story has reached an important turning point, and things might start heating up for good.

This week's installment started with focusing on the origin of the Enchanted Blade project as well as Chiaki Soga's tragic past. Then we see the Sorcery Bureau debating whether it would be the right choice to trust Kunishige's proposal to make weapons from Datenseki. While Sinasaku advocated for this plan, some officials dismissed this idea as they thought Kunishige was a young and rather inexperienced swordsmith.

Meanwhile, at the same time, they were also exploring an alternate solution that involves Kagari Clan's Flame Bone. Although the catch was that they had to wait a year before it got combat-ready. That is when the chapter shifted to Chiaki Soga's point of view.

We see that after she inherited the power of prophecy, she was forced to abandon her personal life and take on the role of Princess Soga. That is when she reluctantly agrees to be surrendered to the Mikaboshi as part of a political compromise. The chapter ended with Kunishige reading Chiaki's farewell letter.


What to expect from Kagurabachi Chapter 124? (Speculative)

Looking at how the story has been developing, fans can expect the following from Kagurabachi Chapter 124:

  • Kunishige may launch a rescue operation: The biggest expectation surrounding Kagurabachi Chapter 124 is that readers will finally see Kunishige's response to Chiaki's situation. Many fans believe the flashback is building toward a secret rescue mission involving Kunishige, Shiba, Azami, and Hasumi.
  • The origins of the Enchanted Blades could finally emerge: The Sorcery Bureau officially rejected the Enchanted Blade proposal in Chapter 123, but readers already know Kunishige eventually succeeded. This makes it highly likely that Kagurabachi Chapter 124 will reveal how he continued his research despite government opposition.
  • Shiba and Azami could take center stage: Although Chapter 123 focused mainly on Chiaki and Kunishige, readers were reminded that Shiba and Azami were also part of the same childhood friend group. The flashback has repeatedly highlighted their connection, leading many fans to predict that Kagurabachi Chapter 124 will finally show the four friends working together.

With fans questioning the Soga clan, given their history and mysterious motivation, there could be more hidden truths waiting to be revealed. On that note, the flashback appears to be approaching one of the most important moments in the series' history.
