Osafune Girls' School
Let's turn this up a bit.
Understood.
It's raised.
This is clearly different from erosion by noro.
I can't believe the fusion of aradama and the human body has progressed this far.
President, urgent news!
I will listen to everything you have to say.
Please do not involve the students or other staff.
They really took it this far.
The police have now charged into Minoseki Academy.
I repeat, the police have charged into Minoseki Academy.

Episode 10 Resolve for Tomorrow
Suspected of being involved with large-scale terrorist activities,
their respective prefectures' police have raided
Osafune Girls' School and Minoseki Academy of the five schools.
According to the authorities,
it appears that both schools had organized combat units consisting of Toji,
and were preparing to commit acts of terrorism.
Police have arrested several school officials and are currently
investigating the situation.
Is the school all right? They told us not to leave the dorms What about Kanami and Mai? They haven't come back yet Who is the Origami family member?
Furthermore, the police are pursuing a woman who is a member of the Origami family
as a material witness who seems to be involuntarily involved in this case.
So Osafune and Minoseki have been...
Heijou has also apparently been blockaded by the police.
What about our president?
I wonder what happened to Takako-san and the others?
The Origami family has stepped up its surveillance of Mokusa members
currently in hiding, and now they're pinned down.
We've been backed into a corner.
They've probably been arranging this for a while.
How did they know about the village?
There aren't any traces of any traitors within Mokusa,
and we've been continuing to erase information on that village
in real time from maps, the internet, and satellites.
Rather than them knowing about it, they must've found it somehow.
Our current location will probably be leaked to them, too.
The great aradama seems to be gaining power.
The problem is what they're going to do next,
now that most of their opponents are gone.
They're not going to do something like 20 years ago, are they?
Would they just leave it at that?
The Origami family has collected more noro than was concentrated back then.
It's certainly a stalemate.
We have no options left.
Are we still going to head to Osafune as planned?
Wouldn't it be better to escape overseas?
We have seized all those related to Mokusa.
This will put an end to things for now.
It's hard to believe that the organization that troubled us so much
was devastated almost overnight.
They were disgustingly and brilliantly skilled.
Apparently the raid squad members
who went to the location had weapons to counteract a Toji's utsushi.
I can't believe they actually developed weapons to use against Toji.
Even if it was to counteract Mokusa, they aren't showing the slightest mercy.
I wonder if Yukari-sama has been planning all of this ever since the incident
with Juujou Hiyori at the tournament?
It feels like it might have been even before that.
Perhaps our failure was one of the catalysts, too.
When will Yume be back?
As soon as control is handed over to the Toji from Ayanokouji.
She destroyed Mokusa's base all by herself?
I heard there were quite a few skilled Toji there as well.
Where's Yukari-sama?
Holding service at the shrine.
She's been shut up in there this whole time.
We stripped the Toji from Osafune, Minoseki, and Heijou of their right
to wear a sword and disarmed them.
Also, the Japan Coast Guard is still searching for Origami Akane—
Weak!
Huh?
Pressure the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force to help with the search.
But, ma'am...
Do you have any idea how much we've lent them so far?
Yes, ma'am! Please excuse me!
Sayaka...
This is the only place where you belong.
Mai?
I... want to fight.
That was just too horrible.
Mai-chan...
Juujou-san, I've been thinking all this time about how you said
that I don't have a reason to fight.
And about what I want to do.
I came here because I wanted to catch up with Kanami-chan,
and I couldn't leave Sayaka-chan on her own.
But that was it.
I didn't really have any particular feelings
about Yukari-sama or how things would turn out.
Mai...
But when I saw Satomi-san, Takako-san, and all the others
who looked after us in Mokusa fighting,
I thought about things again.
I didn't want to see the people around me get hurt ever again.
I might not be able to save everyone on my own,
but I at least want to save those around me.
That's my reason for fighting!
Me, too.
Sayaka-chan...
That's all I can do.
I've decided to avenge everyone from the village.
There's no way I can stay out of this.
Wait a minute!
We're the only Toji left.
What are we supposed to do about this?
Get us off this ship.
We will go make sure Takako-san and the others are safe.
And then we'll return to Kamakura.
The enemy isn't alone.
There will be countless other hurdles before you reach the great aradama.
Juujou-san slipped through those hurdles and managed to strike Yukari-sama.
If that flat-chested girl can do it, then it shouldn't be impossible for us.
Good grief...
Okay, then.
The five of you alone aren't reliable, so I'll go with you, too.
Hiyori-chan, let's all go together!
Are you sure?
Yes!
Yep.
Thank you.
That was...
Someone's stomach, right?
Was it you, Hiyoyon?
No!
It was me...
We did forget to eat lunch, didn't we?
We can't fight on an empty stomach!
We have lots of submarine emergency rations!
They're not very good, though.
Wait... what?
What?
What?!
Wh-What is this?
What?
What's going on?
This is...
What on earth is this?
What's wrong?
Nothing happened to you, did it, Grandpa?
No.
Friedman-san, do you know anything?
This phenomenon only affects Toji.
The same phenomenon has been confirmed before.
Twenty years ago...
Most likely, there was some kind of huge change in the netherworld.
Then the great aradama appeared.
This is a national disaster.
We do not have a moment to waste.
We have to let people know about this right away.
How are we going to do that?
We will head directly to Yokosuka.
Can you gather the press?
I see, so you're going to use mass media.
If you show yourself now, you'll attract the attention of the whole country.
I will tell them all the truth, then.
About the things the Origami family has hidden and about Princess Tagitsu.
If it all becomes clear,
this may no longer be a problem just for this country alone.
But I don't think Origami Yukari will let that happen.
The worst case scenario could happen.
Whatever happens to me,
there are many other supporters in Mokusa.
You can't! There is no replacement for you!
Conversely, as long as you're safe, it won't be a checkmate.
But...
We will go our separate ways from Yokosuka, then.
What are you planning to do?
If we destroy Origami Yukari, it'll all be over.
They say the best defense is a good offense!
That's insane!
All of you?
It seems trying to stop you will be no use.
You girls and Akane-sama, all you Toji are really...
Understood.
Please do so.
Akane-sama!
But please let me help you as much as I can at least.
I will attract as many enemies as I can to make fighting easier for you.
Akane-sama...
By the way, how are we going to reach Origami Yukari?
Huh? Well...
Hey.
Can we use that thing?
Origami Akane has surrendered?
Why is she doing such a thing now?
And that phenomenon earlier... Just what on earth is going on?
There's no figuring that out right away,
but we can't just ignore Origami Akane.
I wonder if we should head to Yokosuka, too.
We do not know what might happen, so we probably should not mobilize.
It might also be a trap.
But there is also the possibility that Origami Akane
will take advantage of this opportunity and join up with the Toji from Mokusa.
Then let's send out the Toji from Renpu.
Contact President Takatsu.
Yes, ma'am.
Um, I just got a report that President Takatsu
has taken the Renpu Toji and is already heading to Yokosuka.
Origami Akane...
She is a fool for rebelling against Yukari-sama despite being her younger sister.
I will definitely take care of this myself.
I don't want the fun to start without me.
I see, so the six of you are going.
Yeah, everyone said they would fight with Hiyori-chan.
That's great.
But Yukari is strong.
I know. I saw her handle an okatana once.
Okay, then.
Well, she's not as strong as me, at least.
What, really?
Hey, Kanami, don't you think being a Toji is great?
You protect people, and you're appreciated,
and you get to learn swordsmanship. It's the best, right?
Yeah!
The benefits are pretty spot-on, too.
That's your thing?
Kanami-chan, it's almost time.
Kanami-chan!
Morning.
It's amazing that you can sleep right now.
Being able to fall asleep quickly anywhere is an important quality for a Toji.
We're almost to Yokosuka, everyone.
Okay.
Hey, after we defeat the great aradama,
do you wanna go get something really good to eat?
When that happens, it'll be my treat.
You've got a deep stomach, Ruippe!
You got that one wrong on purpose.
All right!
Hiyori-chan, we'll totally have chocolate mint ice cream for dessert.
So we've settled on a full course meal?
Don't make it sound like chocolate mint ice cream is all that matters!
Come back safe, everyone.
I'll search for a good place to eat.
Okay!
Juujou-san?
You should take command of us.
I'm sure we can make it to Origami Yukari with your guidance.
You have the ability.
Takako-senpai and the others said so, too.
Juujou-san...
You can call me Hiyori.
Mai, I'm trusting you with my back.
Okay, Hiyori-chan!
Looks like we're valued pretty highly.
The press have made it, too.
As expected.
Someone has appeared on the deck of the submarine!
It appears to be a woman!
Who is that?
Someone came out!
Everyone! I am Origami Akane.
Please listen to what I have to say!
Origami Akane?
Get confirmation immediately!
Why is the media here?!
Where are the emergency preparations?
Over there!
Right now, a great danger looms over this country.
A disaster from 20 years ago... no, one worse than that is about to arise.
Emergency Live Broadcast Yokosuka Bay
The main cause of the disaster twenty years ago, the great aradama,
You can do it! Really? Holy crap! Is everything okay? Oh, crap! Oh, crap! Who is that? She's prettier than I thought Wait, is this for real? I wanna be a Toji, too. Aradama? I can't see the video because of all of the comments. Akane-tan so kyute!
is being revived again.
I am sure all of you Toji have felt it...
The strange phenomenon earlier.
That is the precursor to the great aradama appearing.
We do not have a moment to waste!
The preparations are complete.
C-Captain!
I beseech you to please lend me your strength!
This is not an attack!
What we fired off just now is our hope!
They are Storm Armor containers!
What is their expected landing point?
Here! They're heading here!
Go back to headquarters immediately!
They really did it.
