Synopsis

The episode begins precisely where the last one concluded: Youko is airborne with Kaiko when they’re suddenly beset by a youma, sending Youko plummeting from the sky. Simultaneously, Sugimoto finds himself alongside Keiki's youma, Jyuusaku, and they too are ambushed. Sugimoto falls, but his descent is interrupted by a contingent of youma. Youko regains consciousness on a beach, only to realize she’s no longer in Japan. Before her stretches an ocean marked with swirling whirlpools. Examining
