Kagurabachi Chapter 80 Spoilers Out: Kamunabi Traitor Revealed As Hakuri Faces Suspicion—DEETS
As per the Kagurabachi Chapter 80 spoilers, the chapter will be titled 'Secret Room' and will begin with Kudo guiding Hakuri through a vast library on the second underground floor of Kamunabi headquarters. The space is filled with sorcery-related literature. Kudo explains that mastery of these texts, like the Masumi workers, would allow Hakuri to contribute meaningfully to the organization. Though overwhelmed by the idea, Hakuri hears a loud noise echoing through the area. Kudo casually remarks that it is likely Azami's punches in the Kagurabachi Chapter 80 spoilers. When Hakuri questions the potential breach of barriers, Kudo assures him that barrier maintenance is continuous, with shifts rotating among core members. He also states the barrier cannot be broken from outside. As the noise grows louder, Kudo speculates that Ichiki may have joined the fight. Hakuri is surprised to hear the old man can fight. Kudo confirms that most leaders are strong, though not all are frontline combatants like Azami. The younger generation, however, carries the energy for direct engagement. Kudo further explains the Kamunabi's structure in the Kagurabachi Chapter 80 spoilers —besides the elite fighters who lead squads, over 300 regular fighters complete basic training in martial arts, spirit energy, and sorcery. Kudo has personally memorized one-third of the library's content. He also describes the headquarters' robust, ironclad warding system, which offers unmatched defense while the leaders work to trap the enemy inside. Elsewhere, Azami wonders about Hishaku's strategy. Given their usual caution, their current direct assault feels reckless. He suspects their plan may have been compromised. Back in the library, Ishihara, a curriculum instructor, arrives and greets Kudo and Hakuri in the Kagurabachi Chapter 80 spoilers. He speaks proudly of serving his country and emotionally shows a photo of his daughter. Suddenly, Ishihara pulls a knife on Kudo and ominously declares that his daughter means more than the country. Pine trees erupt grotesquely from Ishihara's body. Kudo shoves Hakuri into a lower chamber to protect him, just as the upper floor is consumed by the tree sorcery. Hakuri lands in a secret room in the Kagurabachi Chapter 80 spoilers and finds Kudo's blood-stained gas mask. Two Kamunabi sorcerers appear and accuse Hakuri of being an enemy. They decide to use him as bait for their families' sake. As they attack, Hakuri registers their blades into his Storehouse, confusing them. Despite this, they injure him in hand-to-hand combat. Recalling his mission to protect the Shinuchi blade and his past abuse, Hakuri endures and retaliates with Isou, knocking them out. Determined, he runs alone to the battlefield. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more spoilers like this and updates from the Kagurabachi manga.

Kagurabachi Chapter 79 Spoilers: Hakuri To Hide Shinuchi As Shigyu Brothers Attack; DEETS
As per the Kagurabachi Chapter 79 spoilers, the chapter will be titled 'Scoundrels.' It begins with Hakuri Sazanami questioning a Kamunabi sorcerer in a gas mask, later identified as Kudo, about his role in the defense against the intruding Hishaku members. Kudo tells Hakuri to remain calm and confirms that the majority of the enemies are indeed Hishaku. He informs Hakuri that Samura is currently occupying Chihiro Rokuhira in battle. Hearing Chihiro's name causes Hakuri to react with visible concern. Kudo then explains that the Hishaku's objective is likely to seize the Shinuchi Enchanted Blade and the Sword Saint, emphasizing that the loss of either would jeopardize the country's future. Because of this, Kudo tasks Hakuri with isolating the Shinuchi in his alternate dimension, the Storehouse. He explains that while Hakuri was recovering in the Kagurabachi Chapter 79 spoilers, the Kamunabi successfully resealed the blade, restoring it to its pre-Rakuzaichi auction state. However, Kudo warns that Hakuri's condition is still fragile. The Kamunabi medical team had to transplant the nerves managing his other sorcery, Isou, to save the Storehouse from being lost. As a result, both sorceries are now limited, and pushing himself again could mean permanent loss of ability. Kudo apologizes on behalf of Kamunabi for demanding so much after Hakuri's previous ordeal, but Hakuri insists he's fine and still wants to help. He requests to be taken to the Shinuchi's location, though Kudo warns it will be difficult since enemies are already approaching the West Entrance of Kamunabi HQ. Elsewhere, unnamed Hishaku members investigate their unexpectedly easy entry into the HQ, suspecting a trap in the Kagurabachi Chapter 79 spoilers. Despite their suspicion, they decide to move forward. Kamunabi surveillance watches the first-floor West Entrance closely. A veteran Kamunabi sorcerer, once ranked as second lieutenant during the Seitei War under the Anti-Sorcery Strategy Army, mentally reaffirms their strength. However, when the warning announcement includes the code word 'Rat,' the sorcerers realize they are outmatched and are ordered to avoid combat. Among the invaders are the infamous Shigyu brothers, known for killing eleven Kamunabi officers, including a relative of the observing sorcerer. Just as the brothers consider attacking the surveillance squad, Azami Shoushirou arrives and engages them directly in the Kagurabachi Chapter 79 spoilers. Despite their chain-based sorcery, Azami effortlessly crushes them with his bare hands. He identifies another enemy — a Hishaku samurai involved in Kunishige Rokuhira's murder — and recalls how quickly Hishaku executed that attack. Still composed, Azami violently crushes the Hishaku samurai with overwhelming force as the chapter ends. For more spoilers like this and updates on the Kagurabachi manga, keep an eye on Pinkvilla.

Snow damage to apple orchards in Aomori, Japan, threatens harvest
Record snowfall in January has severely damaged apple orchards in Aomori, northeast Japan, the country's largest apple-producing region, with authorities fearing losses could exceed 10 billion yen (US$64.8 million). Among many areas that saw above-average snowfall in January, the city of Hirosaki reported a record 126cm (49.6-inch) accumulation, according to a local observatory. The weight of snow has badly damaged apple trees grown in the city and 10 other municipalities. With more snow expected this month, concerns have been raised about the impact on this year's autumn harvest in the prefecture, which produces about 60 per cent of Japan's apples. Yoshimoto Kudo, 85, who cultivates around 150 trees in his 4,000 square metre (1 acre) orchard, said many branches were broken, and the trunks of some trees 50 to 60 years old even snapped. People brush snow off tree branches to prevent them from breaking in the central Japanese city of Toyama in February 2025. Photo: Kyodo Japan's Aomori prefecture is a major producer of apples. Kudo has been working to reduce damage by spreading snow-melting agents and reinforcing branches, but uncleared farm roads have left three of his five orchards inaccessible.
