Episode Title:
If This Is the End.
Episode Description:
The war between Tekkadan & McGillis' faction against the Arianrhod fleet begins with Julieta engaging Mikazuki in a fierce battle. Rustal instigates a false flag maneuver by having a revolutionary's Graze hijacked to fire a Dáinsleif toward his own forces, letting him justify a massive counterattack with the railguns that lays waste to the revolutionaries' fleet. Tekkadan tries to provide support, but the Dáinsleif Squadron's second volley severely damages both the Hotarubi and Gundam Flaruos, injuring Shino in the process. Orga ponders retreating, but his men convince him to see the battle through and he orders the Isaribi to charge through Arianrhod's main fleet. As McGilis rallies his troops, Gaelio duels him with the restored Gundam Kimaris Vidar. The Hotarubi is used as a shield for the Isaribi to allow Shino a shot at the Arianrhod Flagship with his Gundam's railgun - only for Julieta to throw off his aim, causing him to narrowly miss the bridge of Rustal's ship. Disparaging, Shino charges toward the Arianrhod fleet in a kamikaze run and Gundam Flaruos is destroyed by return fire.
