Summary

Tsumuri: The new DGP administered by Ace Ukiyo has officially begun.
Geats continues the fight on his own to protect the world from the Jyamato, who have now evolved to infect people in a mysterious "Parasite Game" phenomenon.

Daichi is revealed to be the new Jyamato gardener, creating a new parasitic breed capable of infecting humans and turning them into Jyamato hosts. With the monsters still on the loose, Keiwa and Michinaga agree to return to Rider duties, while Zitt approaches Beroba and Kekera.

In the midst of all this mayhem, the unthinkable happens to Sara, awakening a new power for Tycoon...

Tropes

  • The Bad Guy Wins: Sara is successfully taken out due to Daichi's trickery and Michinaga being an Unwitting Pawn.
  • Cliffhanger: The episode ends with a preview of Tycoon's new form as Keiwa mourns Sara.
  • Contrived Coincidence: Keiwa arrives just as the Jyamato Michinaga has defeated turns back into Sara, painting him as the guilty party.
  • Drama-Preserving Handicap: Michinaga no longer has his Jyamashin powers and accepts the change since his goals have shifted to eliminating the Jyamato. This also means that he's now at risk against Keiwa after he unintentionally kills Sara.
  • Everyone Has Standards: Despite their last encounter, Neon visits her mother due to her worrying about how she's taking Kousei's arrest.
  • Foreshadowing: Zitt gifts Beroba and Kekera with two black Raise Riser Cards.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Michinaga's evil deeds throughout the Lamentation and Yearning arcs finally catch up to him as his unknowing killing of Sara (who wouldn't have been in the mess were it not for those deeds) finally makes Keiwa snap and has him beat him up unmorphed.
  • Match Cut: Buffa slamming Jyamato!Sara into the ground is then matched with Keiwa pushing Daichi against the wall.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Realizing he has unintentionally slain Sara, Michinaga detransforms with a naturally shocked expression and accepts responsibility for his actions.
  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: The one time Michinaga goes and fights a Jyamato for completely selfless reasons, it happens to be the one parasitizing Sara, causing him to realize he's majorly messed up.
  • Once More, with Clarity: A flashback shows Daichi spreading his upgraded Jyamato parasites over an unsuspecting Sara, causing the tragedy of the episode in the process.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Blood Knight Michinaga doesn't even lift a finger when Keiwa flies at him in grief-filled rage, simply looking on in shame and remorse as he's about to punched right in the jaw.
  • Stuffed into the Fridge: Finally invoked as per Kekera's and Beroba's wishes, with them being implied to have a hand in convincing Daichi to target Sara to turn into a Jyamato in order to put Michinaga in misery from allegedly killing her while motivating Keiwa to become stronger from the events.
  • Talk to the Fist: Keiwa punches Michinaga in response to the latter's actions.
  • This Is Unforgivable!: Keiwa says this to Michinaga.
  • Tragic Keepsake: Keiwa holds on to the hair clip/ribbon that Sara dropped as she perished as he vows his revenge.
  • Uncertain Doom: Sara is pulled underground to parts unknown.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Thanks to Daichi's scheme, Michinaga goes into battle without knowing the Jyamato he was fighting against was Sara until it's too late.
