A huge blue dome of energy surrounds the clock tower with Yuji staring at the Reiji Maigo in the possession of Hecate. Back at where they keep the Silver, the mad scientist explains how they’ve had Sabrac place a location tracker on the Reiji Maigo, how they inserted a defensive mechanism and a separation mechanism on Pheles’ Keeper as well and how everything has gone off as planned. Hecate sends off the Reiji Maigo to the Silver and tells it to awaken.

Wow, Yuji is so screwed. Now that his, life-support, per se, is no longer with him, he’s pretty much on limited time. And, finally, things are starting to unravel in regards to Bal Masque’s plans. It hasn’t been fully revealed, but now some of the questions are being answered.

Outside the blue dome, Shana finally reaches the front of it as the ground around the area starts to shift and crumble. The other Flame Hazes appear as well. Yoshida is running towards the area too while in the Fuzetsu cast by Margery. Her Hougu starts to light up while she’s heading to the dome. Meanwhile, the Flame Hazes are unable to break open the dome. At the same time, Hecate summons forth pillars of existence power and they all feed into the dome. Alastor believes it’s Bel Peol behind the energy. The energy is then used to power up the Silver. All this time, the clock tower has transformed into a twisted pile of steel. Inside, Yuji knows that if he doesn’t get the Reiji Maigo back, he’s done for. He can still sense the Reiji Maigo, and that it’s being drained.

Outside again, Yoshida finally reaches the dome and explains to them that the Reiji Maigo was removed from Yuji. She further explains that Johan told her what had happened via Hougu she carried. Margery makes use of the situation to ask Sato to use the special device from season one to examine the dome and look for an opening. Inside, Yuji decides that he must do something, so he goes inside the steel-twisted maze to find his Reiji Maigo. However, while inside, he has to fight off a robot fleet defending it.

This episode is starting to get quite thick, as things are starting to get very bad for the main characters. Yuji’s existence is at hand, the help can’t get in, and pretty much all the odds are against them. However, this is the type of anime that always ends on good terms, so it’s not really about how bad it’s turned out. It’s really more about how they’re going to resolve this mess. It’s pretty similar to the Sabrac incident.

Sato locates a possible opening and the Flame Hazes go off. They expect a trap, so Margery volunteers to go in first to take in the attack. As expected, the moment they go in, Metamorphosis is waiting for them and quickly incapacitates Margery. Now it’s a 2v2 fight. The mad scientist guy is there too, who goes on to explain what they’ve been up to this whole time. He explains how Hecate’s clone was used to collect emotions to gain data of the environment to control the experiment. He goes on to point out that a being that uses power of existence as its fuel, emotions for its brain, and the Reiji Maigo as a heart, will be born from the twisted metal. A Tomogara born only of Guze in the human world. Something he calls the Statue of Pride. Shana and Wilhelmina go on the attack to destroy this thing before it’s created while Metamorphosis and Hecate go on the defense.

After the explanation from the mad scientist guy (can’t seem to remember his name, and too lazy to look it up) everything now is starting to make sense. They’ve been after the Reiji Maigo all this time as a fuel source to power their machine and all that crap with Konoe is somehow important for their creation so it could have… common sense?! Whatever. The next episode’s the finale, so it’s going to be an all out battle it seems.
