* ArmorPiercingSlap: The Crane Jūto gives "Taro" one for forgetting his motive in allowing himself to be taken over. It works and allows Taro's original personality to perform a SplitPersonalityTakeover.

* CloningGambit: Taro's plan all along was to allow a Jūto to copy him so that not only can his clone bring Tsubasa into the Forest of Slumber to save Natsumi and all the other captured humans, once he ''[[WeDoTheImpossible undoes his own cloning]]'' he is able to use his Don Clan powers to burn away all the origami and order the surviving Jūto to never touch humanity ever again. It succeeds with the help of the Crane Jūto, as at one point the Penguin Jūto who copied him wasn't following his plan until her ArmorPiercingSlap and subsequent SplitPersonalityTakeover.

Taro frees himself from the Forest and activates [=GolDon=] Momotaro mode inside, destroying every origami and freeing their captives. Sonoi also frees the Noto prisoners after finding the Ring of Forgiveness. And to top it all off, Tsubasa and Natsumi are now together again as Miho seemingly dies.

With Taro now in the Forest of Slumber as its new guardian, a new Penguin Juto that takes his form has appeared, and it proves to be a formidable foe for the Donbrothers.
