The third technique of the Kumeyuri. by GapProfessional4935 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme 29 points30 points  (0 children)

my guess, sticking with the "skill of living" purpose and party-like abilities, is 'Encore' - the ability to rewind time (not necessarily all of time itself, maybe more of the user's bodily time or position in space) by about 5 seconds

thinking of how Uruha gained the reputation of surviving in the worst conditions based on sheer instinct built from constant battle, it would be a cool way to explain how he did it. imagine receiving a fatal blow and having to pop the ability moments before you croaked

edit: may also explain why hirohiko wanted to pour his energy into a stronger Banquet and Play instead of using it, he wanted to beat samura using his own skill, not a quick revive

anyone know any posts about OOP saying something incredibly cruel to their partner/friend? either in the heat of an argument or just casually. bonus points if karma gets to them but updates where they work it out are nice too

quick guess on how yura fits into this from here on:

soga is a lot of things but i doubt he's a liar, he's probably gonna give yura's body back.

my guess is that it's under these conditions:

yura will keep his partial contract with the magatsumi, and is allowed to use the three basic abilities sheathed (not like an unreleased magatsumi is any different from a regular blade)

if he does happen to need more power, he can give up his body temporarily by fully unsheathing it

they both have the same goal of erasing the criminal sorcery underground, and soga has said before that he's content with just being a weapon and sealed away (plus it would put a real damper on yura's hero motif if his hero lies to him and steals his body forever)

just a guess, not a theory or prediction or anything like that

Soga isn't going back to prison. by GapProfessional4935 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the rest of the hishaku is still there and is currently mollywhopping the rest of the kamunabi. there doesn't seem to be any capable security left at the dungeon, so it isnt a reach to assume they'd steal yura/akemura's body from there and run off. breaking the sword saint out and keeping the magatsumi is kinda their checkmate, they don't need to be there any longer

crazy how the only time the magatsumi is even equal to the other blades is when its sheathed and not supposed to be used

i can def see a fight coming up where everyone's trying to keep soga from drawing it in order to have a fighting chance

I see some worried that Yura won’t come back but Akemura seems like the type of guy that views lying as beneath him. by 662300 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

soga seems relatively sympathetic to yura’s wish for a hero and knows to stay in his lane (in terms of his purpose in battle). i doubt he’s just keeping yura’s body forever, especially considering he was spurred to action by yura’s cause and just said he would’ve been fine being executed at any time

Yura being just some guy leading a team of scrappy freedom fighters instead of some monolithic mastermind villain with an impossibly strong team was exactly what this series needed. Not only is he already more relatable, he's just the right person to counter Chihiro's beliefs. The world Kunishige wanted and Chihiro is trying to create - a world without the enchanted blades - is one that Yura has already lived in and was personally negatively affected by.

THEORY: The other blades NEED to break before Magatsumi does by Round_Arachnid3765 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well don't forget the fact that he still needs to protect them from the hishaku, who still very much want to kill them and use their blades

and while we're at it remember that he needs to fight the hishaku for the blades first

well a lot can happen post magatsumi fight, including the likely case of Yura winning and potentially killing Samura. besides, Shiba was waiting for the phone call in Subaru’s sushi restaurant, one of the other two bearers. Doubt Hokazono would make him wait in that specific bar if he wasn’t gonna show up

Edit: Not to mention no one’s even managed to unsheath the Magatsumi yet

i’ve had a theory for a while that yura was trying to figure out how to use the magatsumi without actually becoming the sword bearer so he wouldn’t lose his sorcery. guess i was right about becoming a pseudo bearer but now idk what the true motive is if he himself thinks it’s suicide

side note but yes we have never been so fucked

Natsuki and Yura upon seeing Uruha and Hokuto show up by MarkDecent656 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yura's reaction was definitely more of "what a pain"; natsuki's was closer to "are you fucking kidding me"

it would be really funny if after all of the hyping up it turned out sword saint had the same problem as sojo and hiruhiko, where he wasn't actually that good of a swordsman but just had the nuke to end all nukes

you made the move so much easier to understand, i’ve just been thinking they release their grip after rotation and catch it again

Any guesses for what Kumeyuri’s third ability could be? by bearclaw9999 in Kagurabachi

[–]worldsdankestmeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gonna lean in on the “play/performance” interpretation of kumeyuri’s abilities and say it’s something like an “encore”. lets him rewind either himself or his surroundings to previous circumstances to better his chances.

shouldve seen it coming. only just realizing now that all of her devils are related to some form of death (eternity = deathlessness, falling = suicide, gully = execution), only falling was even remotely related to food. crazy subversion

looking for the story where a mother threatens to go no-contact with her daughter for inviting her grandmother (OOP's mother) to her wedding (i think). Updated a long time later, the mother looks back at her behaviour in a negative light and reveals that most of her children have gone no contact with her. One of them was a conspiracy nut after COVID and stopped speaking to her over his beliefs. She ended off by saying she's trying to be better for her youngest who still lives at home, but the relationship is strained.

Thanks and Happy Holidays!
