Dumb Like a Fox.
Episode Description:
A reporter named Shuji Niekawa is traveling around the district in search for the strongest person in Ikebukuro. He comes to the conclusion that Shizuo is the person he is looking for. Later that day, Shuji is attacked by the slasher. He wakes up in the hospital, with no memory of the incident. Shuji is later possessed by the spirit of the slasher and is directed to keep an eye on Anri. He follows her on her way home and attempts to attack her with a knife, but Kyohei, Walker, Erika, and Saburo knock him down with their van in order to rescue Anri. However, Shuji gets up unharmed, and is knocked down again by Celty on her motorcycle with Shizuo in tow. Shuji gets up yet again unharmed, and, upon seeing Shizuo, the spirit professes its love for him. Shizuo rips out a door on Saburo's van and bludgeons Shuji with it.
