Bright Samurai Soul Ending Explained: Who Was Chihaya?
Izo discovers that the Inferni officer, Kōketsu, is his samurai lord and mentor who attempted to kill him. Raiden asked Izo if he would take up arms against his mentor, as staying true to his lord was part of samurai doctrine. At that point, Izo courageously declared that he was no longer a samurai. He was Sonya’s bodyguard. Izo letting go of his Samurai soul was an essential part of the historic revolution. Oath-bound samurai followed the orders of their master traitor, even if their own morale opposed it.
Anna informed them that Kōketsu was taking Sonya to Inferini’s homeland, and therefore had to stop them. They followed Kōketsu’s ship and attacked it. In the final battle, Raiden killed his boss, but the latter trapped him before he died and shot Raiden in the head. On the other side, Izo faced off against Kōketsu but failed to match his powers. Kōketsu cut off Izo’s other eye and eventually stabbed him. However, a grieving Sonya resurrected Raidan and Izo. She cast the “Vykwarus” spell, which turned Kōketsu to dust.
A few days later, Sonya, Anna and other members of the Shield of Light left the port of Yokohama for the homeland of the elves, Hakodate. Sonya separated from Izo and Raiden and went to sea. After Sonya’s boat left port, Izo discovered that Sonya had left the wand with him. Izo looked at the magic wand and threw it into the ocean. At the end of Bright Samurai Soul, he shared a moment of wisdom with Raiden and told him that humans would take care of things with their own abilities. They won’t need magic and wands to settle their differences.
Baron Okubo Toshimichi shared the same conviction and explained that they were going to unite the Japanese land with their own power. The ending of Bright: Samurai Soul portrayed a silver lining for humans who could possibly carve out a brighter future for themselves without any magic whatsoever. In David Ayer’s Bright, the magic wand is found in the last century and the struggle to keep the Dark Lord away continues.
