Glory.Episode Description:
Nagate is inquired about his fight with Gauna 487, but the Akai squad decides to leave the matter alone due to Nagate's recovery, while Yuhata is anxious to know the answers. Later that night, Nagate learns about the annual Gravity Festival taken place, in which a tournament among Garde pilots is being held. At the festival, Nagate encounters Shizuka, who pays for his teppanyaki meal. Izana feels flustered upon seeing them together, injuring herself with a candied apple when bumping into an angered Norio. Nagate is injured again when attempting to confront Norio as a consequence. Meanwhile, Kobayashi learns from Ichirō Seii that Gauna 487 has reappeared and is en route to Sidonia. While recovering, Nagate and Izana are invited by Mochikuni for a ride inside a massive water reservoir before the Akai squad are called to their sortie to destroy Gauna 487, privileged only to high-ranking pilots. The next day, the cadets watch as Mochikuni and his fellow squad members Hinata Momose, Kashiwade Aoki and Izumo Midorikawa depart to confront the enemy, but the operation shockingly ends in failure as all four pilots are killed one by one.
