Chapter 131 Recap: Cloud Gouger’s Badass Entrance & The War Council

To see why Chapter 132 is such an anticipated release, let’s look back at what just went down in Chapter 131:

• Cloud Gouger’s Original Wielder: Chapter 131 blew fans away with the grand entrance of the original wielder of Cloud Gouger (Kuregumo). Hokazono utilized heavy black ink work and unique kanji sound effects that made the entrance feel incredibly grungy and intense. Fans instantly started comparing the wielder’s design and aura to iconic characters like Cloud Strife.

• First Sword Forged, First Sword Broken: The chapter subtly framed the historical irony that Cloud Gouger—the very blade Chihiro fought Sojo for in the opening arc—was actually the first enchanted blade forged by Kunishige.

• Desperate War Measures: Facing the existential threat of the Mikaboshi, the war council made the drastic decision to consult and recruit a criminal organization as a third party. When survival is on the line, national security rules take a backseat.

Chapter 132 Predictions: Assembling the Rest of the Sword Bearers

Here is what fans on OtakuRundown are predicting for Chapter 132:

• Introducing the Remaining Original Bearers: With Cloud Gouger’s wielder making a massive splash, Chapter 132 will likely introduce the remaining original wielders—including the lightning blade wielder and Subaru’s predecessor.

• Kunishige’s Forging Breakthrough: We expect to see more of Kunishige Rokuhira’s personal mindset during the war and how he crafted each unique blade to counter specific threats.

• The Turning Point of the War: The flashback is building toward the front-line battle against the Mikaboshi, showing why these six weapons became permanent legends in Japanese history.
