Episode Title:
Kurenai, the Flame of the Angel of Death.
Episode Description:
Expecting the ambush from Kurei, Recca counters him with his own flames but still gets blasted back. Kurei is surprised that his flames were evenly countered by Recca. As Recca demands Kurei to return Yanagi to them, Kurei notices the scar on Reccas' face and reminices that he was the one who gave Recca that scar when he was a kid and that they both are not people from the current time period. When Recca is not the least concerned about this, Kurei blames Recca for his bad luck since he was going to die by his hands now. Kurei materializes a raging fire being called Kurenai and commands it to attack Recca and his friends. After everyone scatters in order to avoid getting hit by the flames, Kureis' eyes fall on Ganko. As punishment for Gankos' betrayal, Kurei directs Kurenai to kill Ganko. In the nick of time, Recca shields Ganko from the attack. Angered by Kureis' assault on Ganko, Recca unleashes an even powerful flame to stop Kurenai. Motivated by Recca, Fuko and Domon attack Kurenai with their weapons joined by Tokiya as well. Recca and the others decide to attack Kurei since he is the source of Kurenais' power but end up miscalculating his strength. They are all dealt with one by one by Kurei leaving Recca to be dealt by Kurenai. After all of them are defeated and at their wits end, Kagehoshi appears in front of them. She advises Recca to retreat but he doesn't agree. Kageroshi tells Recca to remove his gauntlet which is actually used to seal Reccas' full power to save him from harm. Recca is engulfed in his own flames and in immense pain as soon as he removes his gauntlet.
