Who is that?

Another...

...Faiz?

ERROR

Can you feel this ever-expanding universe?

Have you heard the story of this lonely star?

Tell me the truth, the future I believed in...

Is it really falling apart?

This sadness we feel, it's never-ending

Where can we flee,
when there is no place left to go?

Somewhere in the depths of all our hearts...

A voice yells out: "It's time to go!"

To fight and defend once more

The time to be strong has always been right now

There's no escape from this dilemma...
no matter how far we run

The end JustiFaiz the means!

Chaco.

Wait... What do you mean "another Faiz"?

Like I said, we saw another one.

Looked a little different from Faiz, though.

But who is he then?

Dunno.

Probably has something to do with that
guy who sent a picture of a belt to Mari.

What picture of a belt?

Just show him already.

Here, look at this.

Whoa!

Nishida!

Nishida!

- Kiyotaka!

- Kiyotaka!

- Kiyotaka!

Kiyotaka!

Nishida!

Nishida—!

Guys!

Mr. Masuda!

You found him?!

Hang in there!

Nishida!

Kiyotaka, are you okay?!

Abort the transformation!

Hurry!

Nishida?

Nishida... Nishida!

- Nishida! Hold on!

Nishida!

- Nishida, hang in there!

M-Mr. Masuda

I...

I did it.

The Orphnoch...

I beat it...

Kiyotaka!

Is there no one who can
withstand the power of Kaixa's belt?

So that guy sent you this before
sending you the picture of the belt?

Yeah, the class reunion photo.

And do you have any idea if the belt and
the class reunion are connected, somehow?

I wouldn't think it's involved in this.

It was just your average class reunion.

It was about a month before I came here.

There was an elementary school reunion in Tokyo,

but I was still in Kyushu.

It was just us and our old teacher,
reminiscing about our time at the school.

Which elementary school did you say it was?

It was called Ryusei Academy.

Academy?

It wasn't a regular school?

Yeah.

It was... kind of unusual.

What is it? Tell us.

I told you earlier.

The story of how I got caught in
a fire when I was a child.

My real father and mother died.

And I was all alone after that.

Really? I had no idea.

Just shut up and let her finish.

Why am I always left out of things?

- And then?

After that I was adopted by my father,
the president of Smart Brain,

and he took care of me.

But he didn't just take care of me,
he took care of a lot of kids.

He looked after a lot of other orphans.

And every child had also gone
through a near-fatal accident.

When we were kids, we all lived
in a facility that my father built.

After that, we were moved to
a school he had started.

Instead of going to elementary school,
I went to Ryusei Academy.

It's a nice story, but a bit strange,
all things considered.

What kind of person was your adoptive dad?

I didn't see him often.

But he was a good man, with a kind smile.

So then, maybe your father sent
belts to all the kids he adopted.

It's a possibility.

Also, who did you say
sent that picture of the belt?

Inukai?

Try to see if you can reach out
to anyone who knows him.

He might be able shed some light on the situation.

Yeah. I'll try doing that.

And what are you up to over here?

N-Nothing.

Don't lie. You're fantasizing about that
Yuka girl again, aren't you?

You really think now is the
right time for this stuff?

I'm sorry, but...
I have my own problems, y'know.

And it's a problem that's
really weighing on my chest.

What is it? Try telling me.

Hello.

Mari?

I understand.

Who was that?

It was from Mari.
She said she wants to meet tomorrow.

Good.
That's a good idea.

If she has a belt too,
then it'll be safer for us to stick together.

What?
You fell in love with someone?!

Yeah.

Oh man!
Where and when did you meet her?

Well...

It's a bit hard to explain.

Aren't those texts from
Yuka not enough for you?!

How could you cheat on her like that?

That's why I'm worried.

Just be happy with your pen-pal.

Even I don't have a girlfriend.
How did you end up with two?

What's with you?
Are you jealous or something?

Don't be ridiculous!

I can't forgive a guy who acts like this,
it's just common sense.

Cheating crosses a line.

Mari, what do you think?

What do you think?

Scum.

Enough already, you can come back now.

But...

When I'm there, Kaido gets angry.

It's fine, he's feeling better now.

You know, he only lashes out because he
doesn't want to be honest with himself.

Hurting you is his way of clinging onto himself.

He's a child.

Can I ask you something?

What is it?

Do you like Kaido?

Yes...

I see.

Hey.

C'mon!

Let's go figure out what's really going on.

For the sake of your dead classmate, too.

Right.

Just coffee will do for today, yes?

Too early for anything stronger.

It really was quite a shock.

That Mr. J could be defeated so easily.

Indeed it was.

One of the Lucky Clover, reputed to be
the strongest among the Orphnochs.

There's no reason for concern.

J has three lives, after all.

That leaves two more chances.

I could always lend you a hand, Mr. J.

Regardless, I'm counting on you, J.

Your job is far from over.

Both of those belts were made for our King.

We must retrieve them, no matter the cost.

Hi there, Yuji!
How are things?

I have something super duper
important to tell you today.

I really like you, Yuji.

And that's why I'm really worried about you.

You disobeyed the president,
and now you say you want to protect humans?

Your duty as an Orphnoch is to k*ll humans
and bring forth new allies in our cause.

If you keep this nonsense up,
something very unpleasant will happen.

Unpleasant?

Pass this along to your president.

I will never attack another human being.

So it's true.
You also received a belt from Father.

Yes.
But, do you have any idea why he sent it?

And why Inukai sent me a picture of a belt?

I saw it, that other Faiz.

Who exactly was that?

That was Kaixa.

Kaixa?

The Kaixa Gear was first sent to Takamiya.

Apparently, Father told him about
how he sent one to you, too.

So then... Takamiya is Kaixa?

Rina, what's wrong?

He died.

Takamiya was the first.

And Nishida after him.

Both because of the Kaixa Gear.

What do you mean?

All those who transform into Kaixa...
are destined to die.

Mr. Masuda can explain further.

Everyone's been wanting to see you.

I see.

You also received a belt
and were attacked by the Orphnochs?

However, you seem fine.

Yes. It's all thanks to Takumi.

He transformed using the belt,
and protected me.

And... there's nothing wrong with you?

After you transformed,
you had no abnormalities?

No... None at all.

I see.

Perhaps the Faiz and Kaixa belts are
comprised of different properties.

Or possibly...
Do you have some sort of special power?

Hold on, Mr. Masuda.

Can we really trust this guy?

What's that supposed to mean?

He could just be a spy.

He befriended Mari,
and then obtained the Faiz Gear.

And now he's after Kaixa.

No way! Takumi is—

As former students of Ryusei Academy

we have a bond no one can understand.

We can't trust outsiders.

Takumi...

Don't worry.

If I leave,
you can all talk more comfortably.

I really think that Father sent us
these belts in order to fight the Orphnochs.

That's why we should join forces.

We should be able to handle the
Kaixa Gear if we just study it a little more.

Hey, come to think of it,
where's everyone else?

We couldn't contact them.

We have no idea where they are,
or what they're doing.

Also, one more thing...

Something strange happened.

Something strange?

Do you remember Kusaka Masato?

Of course.
He didn't come to the reunion, though.

Well, that's just it.
Look at this.

Remember at the reunion,
how we all signed this for Mr. Masuda?

What about it?

Look closely.

Kusaka Masuto's name is on it.

Even though he supposedly wasn't there.

What does this mean?

No idea.

Run!

Get out of here!

Don't!

Stop!

Guys!

Mr. Masuda!

I have something I have to tell you all.

That day...

The day of the reunion...

On that day...

All of you...

Mr. Masuda!

Open Your Eyes For The Next Faiz.

Maybe we should just hand
the belt over to the Orphnochs.

He's pushing us around,
even though he's Mari's friend.

So you're Kusaka?

The belt is cursed...
Kaixa's belt is cursed.

All those who use it, die.
