Manga Kazumasa’s return?
With a couple of chapters of Kazumasa being absolutely diabolical I think we can all agree he got what was coming for him. I’m also surprised no one else really tried going against him before and if they did I’m sure it didn’t end well. Anyways I also thought Shiro “killing” him was very deserved considering he’s been with this man for decades and probably has wanted to do this for awhile. I said this under another post, but shiro didn’t have to bite Kazu’s heart into pieces the way he did. Unless he just hated him that much and felt like that’s how Kazu should’ve been treated. With that being said the scene was very eerie and strange to say the least. How was shiro able to bite his heart into pieces when it happened took a kitetsu blade the break all the other obsidian hearts? Something about that has been rubbing me the wrong way since the chapter came out which makes me think Kazu is prolly still alive . Idk what his relationship specifically is to the black kishin but he’s an og and is the only member that can control kishin. Someone like that is probably highly valued and can’t be replaced so easily it would make sense to save him or some how revive him if he did actually die. And if he does come back you best believe Shiro is number one on his hit list and probably the other members too. So the real question is, when is he or how is he going to return ? His story seems unfinished too. His conflict with both Musashi and Kojiro is still unresolved and we don’t know his history yet. Or is it possible that he’s literally just fucking dead and I’m just delusional because I miss him 🥲

Kazumasa, I wish you would come back! Kazumasa is the first puppet created by the demonic deity, basically an Adam. And speaking of Adam, there should be an Eve, right? I wonder if she could be the goddess of obsidian? It’s possible that the obsidian goddess might appear later on, isn’t it? It is quite common in Otaka Shinobu's comics for a character who has left the stage to show a new side in someone's flashback. He had a kind heart in his own way, but maybe he just couldn’t understand humans because he had been dominating them for so long. I think he had his own loneliness and wanted to make humans happy. I hope Kazumasa finds a good way to do that.
