Episode Description:
While Kakunojo is still left traumatized, Ryoun Takamatsu prepares to give her some medicine to calm down. On October 20, first year of Meiji, Enomoto's fleet lands at Ezo Uchura Bay in Washinoki, dividing into two line squads into Hakodate and Goryōkaku. By the time they reached Hakodate, governor Kinnaru Shimizudani already fled from Goryōkaku. Enomoto's fleet decided to use Goryōkaku as a base to launch a counterattack against the New Government Army. At Hakodate Hospital, Hijikata orders Tetsunosuke Ichimura to take care of Kakunojo, much to Tetsunosuke's dismay. The next day, Kakunojo stops herself from throwing her sword into the sea when Sotetsu tells her that Yojiro is still alive. While Shiranui finds Kotoha working as a waitress at the local restaurant, Kakashi, Zagashira, Kobako and Benimaru travel to Hakodate Port. The four reunite with Sotetsu, who tells them that Kakunojo is in town. Later, members of the Yuguntai show up outside Hakodate Hospital with the intention of ambushing Hijikata, who is currently at the base with Enomoto, Sotetsu and Brunet discussing their plan to attack Matsumae. Kakunojo protects Tetsunosuke from being killed, and the rest of the troupe show up, forcing the Yuguntai to retreat.
