Episode Title:
A Glorious Death -With Sorrow and Hope-.
Episode Description:
Gio once again advises Jin to let Toa go, then he heads toward Thanatos, which the Gillard military fleet engages into battle with, though subsequently loses. As Jin and Toa spend time together, and as the others think of heading into space, Gio converses with Akira and Machina, who have merged with Thanatos as part of its soul. Later, after Jin finally allows Gio to take Toa, he runs into Kazuki, who is distraught over Widow's recent death. They have a short altercation, and end up reconciling. They later storm the ISDA, aided by Sakaki, who gets shot in the back as he sends off Jin and Kazuki in a shuttle. Laura protects Sakaki from further harm, and as Sakaki loses consciousness while embracing Laura, Nozaki absorbs the anti-Thanatos factor from the two.
