Episode Description:
After Mahiro and Ryou are defeated by Zwei, Drei puts Mahiro and Ryou in the realm with Yuuichi, Suguru and Shinji. Drei plans to obtain the Onikirimaru once and for all. Mitsuru informs Tamaki that the ceremonial offering will start at sunset. Tamaki runs into the forest filled with red leaves falling to the ground and finds Takuma, who promises to be by her side no matter what. Takuma kisses Tamaki when she starts crying, and she hopes to see him again in her next life. As Tamaki later performs the ceremonial offering using the Onikirimaru, she realizes that Takuma is also going to be a sacrifice. Aria frees the Guardians by giving them the five Artifacts and allowing them to leave, and Aria soon realizes that Drei is one of the four Wisemen. Eins stops the ceremonial offering and faces Takuma in an intense battle. Takuma transforms into an oni with full control of his powers and is able to defeat Eins in one hit. However, Eins recovers from the attack, strikes Shizuki with the Onikirimaru and quickly leaves the shrine without a trace. Shizuki dies after apologizing to Tamaki for deceiving her in performing the ceremonial offering.
