The Best Episodes Directed By Himari Tamagawa

Natsuki has been acting strange and seems to have his head in the clouds through everything he does. After being interrogated by Minamo and the others, he reluctantly confesses to them that he kissed Atri in the ocean.

If Natsuki sells Atri, he can get batteries. However, he can no longer think of Atri as just an average humanoid. While he's deep in thought on the dock, looking out at the ocean, Natsuki finds Catherine floating in the water. She is completely intoxicated, and Natsuki and Atri take her in. But right at that time, the sound of a gunshot echoes within the silent ship.

When Natsuki comes to the rescue for the now-beaten-up Atri, he becomes the next target of Yasuda’s acts of violence. With the onslaught of consecutive attacks, he finds himself also beaten up, just like Atri. Before Yasuda can inflict any more pain, Atri, unable to tolerate watching any longer, raises her fist against a human once more.
