The season opener transports us to Adolla, where the Evangelist observes the chaos of roaming infernals. The dismal yet mesmerizing scenario contrasts sharply with the light-hearted training duel between Shinra and Arthur, set up and monitored by Licht using advanced tech.

As Obi concludes his report about strengthening ties with Asakusa and Haijima, he gets interrupted by the Tokyo Imperial Army. Confusion ensues as he is arrested, leaving the chief bewildered. Obi’s unease heightens upon noticing White Clad members lurking outside. He desperately urges the chief to alert Hinawa.

Elsewhere, the Emperor of Tokyo convenes a meeting with Leonard Burns, compelling him to cooperate with the White Clad, leading to intense confrontations as the Empire’s enemies reveal themselves. Haumea’s manipulative dialogue ultimately sways Burns to align himself with the Evangelist’s vision.

While Shinra is prepared to take drastic actions to save his captain, Hinawa opts to shoulder the mission alone, despite knowing it could cost him his reputation. His decision prompts others to join him, setting the stage for tense confrontations with the Empire.
