The Best Episodes Written By Hiroyuki Yoshino

The headmaster's grimoire, Solomon's Gate, has activated. Even high level mages go crazy if they stare at it too long. Liese escapes battle with the headmaster, and attacks Arata and the others, where she uses her ultimate secret technique, Final Crest. And then, the school in the West falls when Liese freezes time...

Lugh attacks the school while Arata and Mira are being held far away. Yui evacuates everyone in the school into her dream to protect them, and Levi sets out to fight alone. But Lugh is a demon lord candidate who has obtained a demon lord element.

It's the last episode, and Hijiri and Arata have their final showdown. Lugh joins in the fight, along with the Trinity Seven--Lilith, Levi, Arin, Mira, Akio, Yui, and Liese. Why is she attacking Arata? And what secret does Arata hold?

Shu learns confusing things about Funeral Parlor’s agenda in GHQ custody, and it doesn’t help that Gai refuses to answer any questions--or that he breaks into GHQ to rescue not Shu, but a known murderer. Without any straight answers, who can Shu trust?

Inori's been kidnapped by forces intent on performing a secret ceremony, and the only way for Shu to get her back is to remember what really happened on December 24th, 2029.

Approximately four years ago, a gate to another world opened in Mikado City, and invaders called Neighbors appeared.

A young girl named Kanata Sorami joins the army with the hope of learning to become a good bugler. She is assigned to a place called Seize, which is currently holding a festival where people splash each other with water. She is found by her superior, Rio Kazumiya, who gives her a bath and tells her about the legend of the Fire Maiden. While looking at a bell owned by Rio’s father, an owl steals it, forcing Rio to stop Kanata falling off the balcony trying to get it. As Rio participates in the festival, Kanata decides to search for the bell. She finds it hanging off a ledge, but when she goes to get it she falls into the lake, where she sees the golden skeleton of a winged creature. Stranded at the bottom of a canyon, she plays her bugle where she is responded to by Rio on her trumpet. She takes her to the Time Telling Fortress and plays the trumpet as the sun rises, introducing herself as Kanata’s bugling teacher.

As the others go to pick up some supplies, Kanata spends the afternoon training with Rio. Just then, Kanata comes down with a fever, reminding Rio of when her mother fell ill. Out of medicine, Rio gets help from a priestess named Yumina, who diagnoses her with malaria and treats her. When Kanata wakes up, she explains she was overworking herself since she felt useless. She also mentions to Rio that she always wanted to play "Amazing Grace," having heard from a bugler she met when she was little. Rio then plays Amazing Grace from one of the tanks, explaining that a squad, much like a song, is composed of many different parts.

Shu enters his hideout for a quiet lunch only to find Inori, his #1 musical crush, bleeding on the floor. After he fails to stop her pursuers from hurting her more, his one shot at self-respect is to deliver a strange vial she stole to her terrorist pals.

Now that Shu has the king’s power, he doesn’t get to sit on the sidelines anymore. Gai thrusts him straight into the thick of a battle between Funeral Parlor and the Anti Bodies--and the lives of over 100 hostages are on the line.

Inori’s everywhere Shu goes for some reason, and it’s starting to fry his brain. But there’s no time to worry about it, because it turns out one of Shu’s classmates witnessed their terrorist action in Roppongi, and Gai’s put him in charge of the problem.

Gai's come up with a new mission, but before Shu can officially join the team, he has to show that he measures up by winning a mock battle against Ayase's Endlave. Time for basic training! But can Shu concentrate on combat after Inori turns him down?

A change in circumstances forces Funeral Parlor to carry out their attack against the Leucocyte with drastically reduced manpower, and that's BEFORE Shu pulls out of the mission. Still, learning a few new things about Gai just might change his mind.

Welcome to Tokyo: a ravaged world under merciless totalitarian rule. More and more of Shu's old friends are seeing a side of him they never imagined possible... and Shu's about to see a new side of the Voids, too.

As Funeral Parlor and the U.N. troops converge on Ward 24--for drastically different reasons--Inori hovers on the edge of becoming Mana. Meanwhile, the mysterious boy who first took her finally reveals his plans for Shu and Gai.

The Fourth Apocalypse is upon us.

During breakfast, Kanata is introduced to the other members of the 1121st Platoon; Felicia Heideman, Noel Kannagi and Kureha Suminoya. Kureha shows some hostility towards Kanata, but she is assigned to show her around the fort. When Kureha takes Kanata to see the tank of the squadron is kept, which is in the process of being repaired, Kureha expresses her depression because the military often ignores the squadron’s existence. Later that night, Noel and Kanata claim they saw a ghost in the barracks, so Kanata and Kureha are sent to investigate. They learn the place used to be a school. Kureha laments that their platoon is in the middle of nowhere and is generally ignored. The two are surprised by an owl, the same one that stole Rio’s bell, but with Kureha’s help they manage to capture it. They decide to keep it and name it Shuko.

Shu's having horrible flashbacks, both to images of his battle with Jun and to other, even more upsetting images that soon have him quitting Funeral Parlor and alienating the people in his life.

Rumors are flying about what's happening to people in the quarantine zone, and Arisa is losing control over the frenzied student body. To make matters worse, someone's let it slip that turning in members of Funeral Parlor might be their ticket to freedom.

Ten years ago on Christmas Eve, Mana, Shu, and Gai had a fateful encounter in a church. That’s the story we already know. The story we don’t know: where were their parents?

In order to become a mage, you need a research theme which archives one of the seven deadly sins. While thinking about what his theme will be, Arata and 3 others are locked in a barrier, with no exit to be found. But then Lilith and the others find themselves needing to use the restroom... Good luck, girls!

A power leaks from underneath the school, Arata and the gang head down into the labyrinth to protect the school from the collapse phenomenon.
