The team behind the upcoming TV anime Kagurabachi has announced the third leg of its global World Tour alongside full details for the tour’s grand finale event in Japan.
About Kagurabachi
Kagurabachi is a sword-and-sorcery battle manga by Hokazono Ken, serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump (Shueisha). The story follows Rokuhira Chihiro, a boy who aspires to become a swordsmith like his renowned father, Rokuhira Kunishige. When the mysterious sorcerer organization Hishaku (毘灼) attacks and kills Kunishige, stealing six immensely powerful cursed blades (妖刀) capable of deciding the fate of nations, Chihiro takes up the seventh blade his father left behind — Enten (淵天) — and sets out on a blood-soaked path of revenge.
