Shinjitsu -truth-.
Episode Description:
Theresia and the renegade military faction are able to seize control of AGS with help from Ulla, who has been assisting them all along from the shadows. A Bugmech is launched against the public to further blame Saiki and the other Blademen as "terrorists". Saiki and the other Blademen, including Kariya, remain in hiding while receiving assistance from an unlikely ally. A covert operation is then launched by renegade soldiers to kill the Blademen in a mob-owned restaurant. Gharib stays behind to assist his AGS Blademen colleagues in escaping with their lives by charging the soldiers in a rage of fury before detonating two grenades. After Saiki, Rudra, Kariya, and Ageha are attacked while trying to escape, Rudra falls back to provide cover and sacrifices himself in a battle with military snipers after his Maneuver-Blade malfunctions.
