Awakening.Episode Description:
As the robot spider chases after the diversion team, Ibara and Haruto hold off Kanon and Shion while Aoi climbs on the robot spider to open up its underbelly hatch to expose its engine and destroy it. However, Kanon and Shion manage to beat Ibara and Haruto. Kanon then shoots a electrical bolt on Aoi, who suddenly floats and absorbs Kanon's electricity, allowing Ibara to destroy the robot spider. With Ibara injured and Aoi unconscious after the battle, Haruto decides to go and help the maintenance team while promising a worried Ibara he will come back. After Haruto helps Gojiro fix the substation, the two head back only to encounter Kunikida, who shoots Haruto. Kunikida explains his hatred of humanity was born after his best friend Natsume, who was then Minister of Defense during the meltdown, abandoned him and the First Division. Oyakata rescues Haruto and Gojiro, yet Haruto begs to spare Kunikida and leave him alive. With the power to the train finally restored and the storm coming, Haruto and the rest of the maintenance team speed up the train. Noticing a lamppost is about to fall into their path, a seriously injured Haruto jumps out to stop it from falling and tells the rest to get the other survivors. With the help of Kunikida, they are able to stop the lamppost from falling on the train. With no escape from the storm, Kunikida thanks Haruto for reminding him of his humanity while Haruto succumbs to his wounds before silently saying goodbye to Ibara.
