Episode Title:
Ryoma's Message.
Episode Description:
The troupe begin their first performance inside the theater, revealing that the Moon Tear Sword was forged to seal the Head of the Conqueror. In a flashback, when Yojiro was diverted away from an inn, Ryoma was attacked by Shinta, but Ryoma managed to kill Shinta before passing away himself. Kakunojo tells Yojiro that the Head of the Conqueror has been wandering around Ryoma and waiting to possess him, something that Oryo knew about. Yojiro blames himself for Ryoma's death, which is why he is choosing his own path. On the Kaiyō Maru, Jules Brunet tells Enomoto that he trusts neither Kanna nor Sotetsu. Kawai has now fled to Aizu after the Nagaoka Province has fallen. At the Takanawa Reception Area, Parkes is responsible for Kanna now guarding Jubei. Kanna later finds Sotetsu at Edo Port, where Kanna shoots at Sotetsu when the latter ignores the former. Yojiro shortly arrives and realizes that Sotetsu might be influenced by the Head of the Conqueror. As the ghost warriors return, Kanna protects Kakunojo when she also arrives. Sotetsu lights a match to make the ghost warriors disappear, and he departs to write another script based on how the others acted.
