Chapter 31 opens Volume 6 under a downpour that matches Kyo's sour mood. Kagura's arrival only worsens his temper, and her pointed questions about his hidden form set the stage for the appearance of a figure from his past.
Summary
A rainy outing finds Yuki, Tohru, and Kyo together, with Kyo sunk in a darker mood than the weather alone would explain. The gloom deepens the moment Kagura turns up unannounced.
During a trip to buy groceries, Kagura presses Kyo about the true form he keeps concealed and whether Tohru has any idea it exists. The prodding sours him further, and then his attention snaps to a stranger watching from a distance: the martial arts master he calls shishou.
Key Events
Kagura reappears and interrogates Kyo about his hidden shape and what Tohru knows of it. The chapter ends on Kyo's shock at spotting his teacher observing them from afar.
Notes
